Solid action film

Rating: 7/10 (22 December 2008)

Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is trying to get out of the agent business. He's stopped the field work and started to train new agents, but then something happens. A new agent he has trained gets caught by an international arms dealer Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman), so he decides to go on a mission to retrieve her.
The mission doesn't start quite from here, it actually starts near the end, in where Hunt is tied on the chair and Davian is questioning him on the location of "Rabbitsfoot", a weapon he so greatly desires.
M:I3 is quite an entertaining action film, I'd go as far as saying, it's my favorite from the three Cruise movies made. J.J. Abrams does good job as a director and the film never manages to feel like boring action piece. The dialog is good and Hoffman does a great job as the villain.
All in all, M:I3 is a solid action film, with some good twists and turns.
