Failed to meet the high standards set by the earlier editions

Rating: 5/10 (24 December 2011)

The movie did have a lot of thrilling moments and there were some stunning views of Burj Khalifa, Saint Basil's Cathedral, and Kremlin. But there was an absolute lack of intriguing drama. One felt comedy was ill-timed and not at all hilarious. MI 4 makers failed in their research on India. The emerging nation was cast as a land of humongous population of brainless people - far from truth. Elite hotels in India are not at all overcrowded. Let me assure Anil Kapoor can speak better English than that and he is a much better actor. Why he chose this suicidal role beats me. All in all, you won't miss anything if you avoid it.
