He Really Sprints To The Bridge

Rating: 6/10 (21 February 2002)

I got through "Mission Impossible" fairly unscathed, which I believed to be quite a result. My hopes and expectations were low, and they were matched fairly accurately. What did stand out was Jean Reno, and the "Mission Impossible" theme song. Without these I would have been in some severe pain for the entire movie.
Everything else in the movie, such as the script, acting and special effects seemed pretty packaged. It was a successful marketing venture, with excellent financial support which ensured huge gross earnings. No more, no less. Who would have thought, however, a sequel could be made that was so much worse than what was already a bad movie.
Oh yeah, certainly don't bother seeing it, or the sequel.
