Confusing, but entertaining.

Rating: 8/10 (25 July 2015)

Mission: Impossible is a pretty good film, with top-notch performances from the cast and entertaining action sequences. However, some parts of the plot are confusing,such as what exactly Phelps' plan was. He faked his death, but I never understood why. Why did he become a bad guy, and who was Claire working with him? Also, some of the acting was sort of below-average, but Tom Cruise's performance of course made up for it. Its those type of things that make me dislike a film, but nevertheless the Tom Cruise-led spy flick was overall pretty enjoyable. The over-the-top stunts added suspense to the thrilling sequences. The action was pretty well-done. I will say that the stunts/action are unrealistic and sometimes even physics-defying, though. But Mission: Impossible was a very entertaining film, and I am looking forward to seeing the rest of the franchise. :)
