out bonds Bond

Rating: Null/10 (5 May 2006)

this is an excellent adventure movie with some spectacular stunts and pyrotechnics.
Cruise acquits himself better than expected and Hoffman is on top form as the villain.However there are no weak links in the cast.
In amidst the pyrotechnics there is a convoluted spy plot with a very dark edge...certainly the squeaky clean IMF organisation of the TV series is long gone.The locations are excellent and unusual, photographed with confidence and aplomb.Simon Pegg provides some welcome humour as a technician.
This film makes the forthcoming Casino Royale seem irrelevant.
