Gave everything the first Mission Impossible couldn't deliver.

Rating: 9/10 (25 May 2000)

When I saw the original MI, my feeling was that while there was wonderful suspense, intrigue and action, the movie lacked confrontations and a physicalness that I expected to see. MI:2 Comes through better than I had expected. Jon Woo's influence upon this movie is readily seen via the action sequences (which raise the movie to new heights in the Action genre) and while the storyline at times formed slowly or incompletely (The first 30 minutes or so) through gratuitous action, I'll admit I was completely entertained.
