Mission rebooted?

Rating: 8/10 (24 March 2012)

Of course this is a continuation (with a touch of Abrams still left in, see opening sequence/actor for that), but it feels like a fresh new injection into the franchise. No matter what you think of Tom Cruise, you can't deny the appeal of this movie in its action scenes. The biggest winner for this movie are those set pieces that do involve the area they are taking place in.
And it's great scenes (you may have seen a few stills or some glimpses of Dubai in the trailer) that probably look even better in IMAX (unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to watch it there). Simon Pegg is great for comedy relief and you kinda hope this team will make another movie together. Seeing "survivors" of previous entries return is great too.
