Well executed action film. It certainly was impossible.

Rating: 8/10 (3 June 2000)

I think that this movie achieves what it has set out to achieve. After all, the heroes are supposed to do things that look impossible. The stunts are supposed to be over the top. And they were.
John Woo lends an experienced hand to direct this action movie, providing an alternative to the expected. Some scenes, such as the "white dove and fire" shot, may have seemed a little hackneyed, seemingly irrelevant in a film with little other symbolism. Tom Cruise's rock-climbing and motorcycle-riding was nothing short of amazing, and the stunts in general were extremely far-fetched - brilliant.
