Watch it with the right state of mind, and it rocks.

Rating: 9/10 (9 May 2006)

There are two different types of people who will walk into a theatre to see Mission Impossible III. There are people who are there for whatever reason, be it a date, a group of friends, a family event; they are going to see an action movie, and they want nothing more than to be thrilled and excited for 2 hours. The other group of people who go in are the people who feel that they should be a movie critic when they grow up because their taste is so mature. These kind of people are automatically turned off by the fact that this is a series, the number 3 at the end of it is a sign to them from the beginning that it is destined to be bad. They laugh about it before hand with their friends "Can you believe that Tom Cruise?! He must be aging in his grave by now and he wants to do another Mission Impossible? haha" They get worked up into a pretty good frenzy about this movie. The day arrives where they actually see it, and they look for every bad point wrong with it. It's not original enough... It doesn't push the boundaries of film... It doesn't have a cast full of nobody's that they can say they discovered... It's not indie enough... Well folks, if you have any desire to see an action movie this weekend... Do not hesitate because this movie does it extremely well. There is a happy balance between story and action, there aren't 50 million mask changes like in the second installment. Overall a grade A action flick that deserves to be seen by all action lovers alike. If you go in wanting it to be crappy... what do you think you're gonna see? Go see it with the right state of mind.
