Fantastic..Brilliant film (some spoilers)

Rating: Null/10 (8 December 2001)

Mission Impossible is one of the best films I've seen. It shocks the viewers into deep concentration and takes them on an amazing journey with Cruise fighting both against time and using all the skills he has obained as a secret agent to his fullest.. showing the world just how courageous and imaginative his character can be.
I've read mome of the critiques for this movie by other IMDB users and most of them are really pathetic and subjective. Examples are that the film didn't resemble the original TV series, that the plot was not cohesive and a very silly reason given a lot, that it downplayed the reputation of some of the actor's. Firstly, Who cares!! if the film didn't copy the repeated cliched formula used by the original series..thats what's great and different about this...and what makes it a great hollywood movie. Secondly, I've watched this film over four times now and each time the plot seems to become more cohesive and evermore powerful, so those that argue otherwise ether don't have a clue what it's about or simply don't recognise a good film when they see one. I Personally think the film does very well to represent the old series. It shows how the power of team work can potentially obtain great results in the beginning, and shows the possible flaws in an operation when there is a traitor in the team (something never explored in the original series).. this is what makes the film so great and different from the TV episodes.
