OK story. And DID it go the way I thought it would!

Rating: 7/10 (21 July 2000)

WARNING: SPOILER!!!
First thing: this is an action movie. You know, guns, motorcycle chases, big (and repetitive) car explosions and the like. The story line is not bad actually, and I enjoyed it, left the cinema feeling entertained. The actors did a good job and I had no problem with that (but still, watching Tom in action mode makes me laugh!)
After closer inspection, you'll notice that this movie has a lot of flaws...but I am not going there. The thing is, it is way TOO predictable. And this makes it less exciting. I mean come on! They won't possibly let Tom Cruise die like he was an idiot, would they? The whole part where Ethan got caught and unable to speak is just too ridiculous. Who would believe THAT was the real Ethan? So he's not. And he got killed by the villain. I'm not going to say who the poor bastard is, but his little finger got chopped off. And you'll KNOW who that is.
Overall it's not a bad Saturday night movie, but do not have high expectations, you might end up hating it if you do.
