Mr.Hunt's mistaken identity

Rating: Null/10 (7 July 2000)

Mission Impossible 2... the movie everyone wants to see! With John Woo directing and Limp Bizkit filling the soundtrack, where did this movie go wrong?
It was exaggerating, Tom Cruise would pull moves that make you think, "Yeah right!" From the beginning to the end, all the action is over-exaggerated. The scenes are cool but there is that voice in the back of your head telling you, "That is sooo fake!" The face swapping thing is cool (At least they kept something from the first part!) but then it gets over exaggerated too. I was expecting Ethan Hunt to pull his face off and reveal James Bond, because this movie is trying to be too much like the James Bond series. Mission Impossible was all about working in a team, and this worked well in the first part (which I highly enjoyed). The second part, its just Tom Cruise, outrageous moves, and a whole bunch of birds?!? Whats with the white dove?!? Symbolism?? I don't care! Its not realistic.
Part one made you go: Thats cool how they did that! and WHoa! that was sweet. Part two was more like: Thats cool, but where is the espionage and the realism?
Wait for it on video... or... rent part one and one of those Japanese kung-foo movies and try and imagine part two.
