Finally a sequel which is so much better than the original!

Rating: 10/10 (20 September 2000)

Don't get me wrong, I also liked "Mission: Impossible" a lot, but that movie was just too complicated for a movie with that much stunts and action. It's not that I don't like that kind of movie, but it is just not the sort of thing you expect from a movie like that. The makers of "M:I-2" learned of that, and gives the audience now a terrific ride which you just have to see!
I heard a lot of different reactions of this movie, and I found out that you hate this movie or love it.
I don't know why there are persons who hate this movie, because I absolutely loved it! It really has everything you can expect from this kind of movie. It has humor, romance, action and a lot of absolutely spectaculair stunts performed by Tom Cruise himself.
This movie also has an outstanding score by Hans Zimmer who also did before the fantastic music and songs of "The Prince of Egypt" and the great score of "The Rock".
Plus the great performance of Thandie Newton and a great Dougray Scott (from "Ever After") as the villain.
This movie is also from the beginning to the end visually fantastic. John Woo knows, as always, how you can show an action sequence at his best and his slow-motion shots really never get boring.
Just see this movie as soon as you can. Hate it or love it, see for yourself, but you just HAVE to see this.
