The 3rd Time is a Charm!

Rating: 8/10 (12 May 2006)

To be honest, I was not impressed with the first two Mission Impossibles. Why? Because they did not contain the Team concept of the original! In the first one, Ethan's whole team of some really good actors, are killed in the first 45 minutes or so of the movie! The second has him and Luther as the only real team members but still Ethan is a lone agent! Finally this one brings in a whole team while maintaining the heroism of it's central character. Also we have a somewhat complex storyline, a great villain, and some good acting! But the really big draw is the nonstop action and amazing stunts, many of which Cruise did himself!
