I was starting to get bored...

... and then the action started!
The plot is reminiscent of Goldeneye, the dialogue dumb, the plot twists inexistant (well, unexpected plot twists are inexistant... there are plot twists, but you can see them coming from miles). But with this I can cope. I was expecting an Hollywood John Woo movie, so I kept my expectation very low on everything but action. The thing is, the action takes a long time to come in...
And then the movie starts for real
Non-stop (sometimes ludicrous) action!
And I must add that I've been very surprised with Tom Cruise's perfomance as an action hero. I wasn't expecting him at all to have a little Chow Yun Fat hidden in him.
