What was this?!!!

Rating: 1/10 (31 December 2002)

This movie literally slapped me in the face when I first saw it. The trailer had me very excited but when I saw it, I was glad my sister talked me out of going to see it in cinema, would have been a waste of my 20 dollars. What were they thinking by making Tom Cruise do some really lame a** fight sequences? Were they trying to make him look bad?! I think they succeeded. Several times, they showed him doing some really dumb and absurd moves!!! It annoyed me when I saw it, I just fast-forwarded!!
Then there's Tom and Thandie (Ethan and Nyah). They were like a..."confused". She particularly annoyed me with her stupid one-liners.
One minute, they sleep together, then they are disagreeing! How annoying!! Then there's the villain, Dougray Scott (Sean Ambrose) who seem to know when and where Tom Cruise would be each time. Come on, John Woo, what is that?!! And what's with the wide angle camera shot at the beginning?!! Too cliche! Every action movie has that!!! And the most confusing thing about this movie, up to this day that I will never understand, is the scene where Tom and Thandie are driving and their cars start to spin parallel to each others. What..How..Who..When..?!!!! Huh?!!!! And Sean knew what Nyah was up to from the start! Come on, John Woo or whoever wrote this crappy script!! No!! And don't even get me started on the use of the face masks!! How is it that Ethan Hunt knew to carry a mask of Hugh (Richard Roxburgh) when he went to the place where they were exchanging the virus for the money?!!!! That is way too smart!!! John Woo should take a hint from the director of the "Die Hard" franchise. Now that is pure blooded action!! John Woo has failed in his attempt to deliver another masterpiece like "Face Off". May his English was so bad that Tom Cruise and the others decided "what the hey, I can't understand him so I'll just do my own thing" This movie should have been rated PG! The violence, my nephew was laughing at how stupid it was!!! There was no intense violence. Even a 2 year old child would pelt popcorn at the TV when this is going on because they think it is stupid!! The first movie was sooo much better than this pack of bulls***!! People only wasted their good money to see this movie because Tom Cruise was in it. I hope that the 3rd part is going to really bring back the real MI. Has the world gone mad when they were making this film?!! I would love to know who wrote this s***!! It really annoyed me! Tom Cruise, you disappointed me! That was not you! You can do much better. To movie lovers out there, STAY AWAY FROM THIS MOVIE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET A LAUGH BECAUSE IT IS MORE LIKE A COMEDY THAN ACTION (THE ACTION SEQUENCES WILL HAVE YOU LAUGHING IN ANNOYANCE OF THIS STUPID FILM). Rating-0.00001/10. That is how awful it was!!!
