An Action Tour of Force

Rating: 9/10 (6 August 2015)

I'm working my way through the "Mission Impossible" franchise of films, and I have to say that I just absolutely love this movie. The cinematography is a good blend between the first two films, with the good film color of the second but without the goofy overdone fight scenes that ruined it.
The story is well written and well told, and the entire cast of the film does an exceptional job. Philip Seymour Hoffman steals the show as the main villain, and Cruise is once again a convincing lead role (something that diminished more than a bit in MI2). The movie keeps you interested and its last half an hour is sure to have you on the edge of your seat. 9/10 stars!
