Good action movie right from the start

Rating: 8/10 (16 December 2011)

Good action movie right from the start. Most of the action sequences are out of the world. Brad Bird has a great directorial outing with his first action movie.
Kremlin getting hit, amazing gadgets that probably would never see light of the day outside of Hollywood, hot cars getting roughed up, ammunition being fired like crazy and of course fist fights - you got it all.
Tom Cruise has aged only in flesh. He is as astounding as one would expect the lead of a high-caliber action movie. Jeremy Renner somehow reminds me of Daniel Craig a lot. Simon Pegg plays up a pseudo-comical role to cool down the tension. To sum it up, good plot and a LOT of action.
