The best one in the franchise in terms of story, but not the best overall, it has less action than expected.

Rating: 9/10 (16 August 2015)

Mission Impossible is one of my absolute favourite film franchises, on top of Tom Cruise being my favourite actor, one that dedicates himself like no other, to every one of his films, from incredible performances to insane stunts no one else would dare to do. With every entry in the franchise they manage to surprise me and Ghost Protocol is my favourite of all. So my expectations for this sequel were very high, and...
I absolutely loved the film. But Ghost Protocol remains my favourite. The script is just amazing, the story and plot are the best ones in the franchise, by far, the dialogue is terrific, witty, funny, smart, powerful, and much more, the story is just beyond super smart, there's a twist and turn every 5 minutes, sometimes even less, it's so involving, it grabs your attention from the very first moment and never lets go until the end, which definitely leaves you wanting a lot more films.
The Characters are amazing as usual, Alec Baldwin shines a lot, but Rebecca Ferguson is the one who steals the show, as a character you never really know if its good or bad. The villain its excellent, the biggest match for Ethan until now. Siman Pegg gets to shine brighter than ever, but Jeremy renner and Ving Rhames get sidelined a lot, which is a shame. Tom Cruise perhaps gives the best performance in the franchise since the first.
The action was my only problem with this film, it has an amazing opening thats will stand as one of the most insane stunts ever, but The director no matter how great he is doesn't has the skills for action required, as he wastes the insane stunt by Tom, his camera shots waste a lot of action scenes, that could be even greater. The action is awesome, though, there's insane fight choreographers and cars and bikes scenes are insane.
But ultimately there's not enough action, mainly in the climax, which aside from running and some fighting there's nothing else, its an insane climax in terms of suspense, thriller, twists, but no action, and i think it takes a little of its wonder. I think the director gave so much attention to the story that sidelined the action.
This is by far the best one in the franchise in terms of story and plot, with twists and suspense to spare, but this is because the director doesn't have the skills to make a full action movie, despite having some of the best ever action scenes they are in general wasted and there's not enough of them. This is my only reason not to give a perfect 10 to this film, but ultimately this one will prove to be the favourite to everyone else, to me Ghost protocol remains my favourite and better one yet.
