John Woo redefines the Mission Impossible series

Rating: 9/10 (25 May 2000)

The first MI was tired, but John Woo pumps new live into this series. Supplying the audience with non-stop sweat and action. His signature round-house camera angles capture some amazing fight sequences, especially on motorcycles Mr. Woo rocks.
The cast Cruise, Newton,Scott and Rhames provide a glamorous flavor to this stunning action movie. I hear Cruise did his stunts...if this is true the man is a true action hero warrior, able to defy gravity and reality at times.
The only compliant is the love story. The chemistry between Cruise and Newton is hot, but the story line is a little drawn out and secondary to the action and the mission. Other than that I would highly recommend this movie.
Don't miss the number one movie of the summer or you will be sadly disappointed.
