WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
MSB Reviews If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog :)Christopher McQuarrie is able to create a film with the best qualities of its predecessors. The high levels of tension and suspense of M:I-1 and the non-stop action of M:I-3 are very well-balanced in Rogue Nation, which makes it another success inside an already fantastic saga. The action continues to be the highlight since Tom Cruise's mission apparently is to try and perform as many death-or-life situations as he can.The plane sequence is riveting, the underwater set piece is (literally) breathtaking and the chasing scenes, whether on foot or by car or by a motorcycle, are incredibly exciting. McQuarrie directs the hell out of those scenes with an unique camera work, some beautiful cinematography, and seamless editing. The score is once again brilliant and it helps giving me some goosebumps.The screenplay is captivating and it finally has another decent villain to rival with Philip Seymour Hoffman of the third installment. Sean Harris portrays Solomon Lane and, even though Lane isn't exactly an extremely well-written antagonist, at least he has clear motivations and a lot more screentime than other villains throughout the series. Still, he could have been better explored.The new additions to the cast are sensational. Rebecca Ferguson brilliantly interprets Ilsa Faust, who has some great development along the runtime. Alec Baldwin (Alan Hunley) is also a great addition to the saga. I love that they decided to use Ving Rhames' character, Luther, more in this movie. He only had a tiny bit at the end of Ghost Protocol, so I am delighted to see him back on screen with his fantastic humor. Simon Pegg (Benji) is also becoming one of my favorite characters and Pegg proves that he can also accomplish some great dramatic scenes besides the frequent comic relief moments.Finally, Jeremy Renner (William Brandt) continues to be an awesome actor by portraying a possible substitute of Ethan Hunt in the future of the franchise (even if I doubt that Renner would do all the crazy stuff Cruise does). Obviously, Tom Cruise is the standout with all of his jaw-dropping real stunts that most people don't even believe they are actually true. I bet that at least 7 out of 10 people that watched this movie at the time of its release, didn't believe for a single moment that the airplane scene was real ... This is saying a lot about the quality of the stunt team and the unbelievable courage of Cruise. Please, never stop doing this!My only big issue with the movie is its pacing. Even though it gives more time for the audience to rest between action sequences, it becomes too much espionage exposition and it slightly becomes a bit boring. The tone is well-balanced, but the pacing really does not help at all the overall flow of the film. This aspect plus the not-that-great villain bring the movie a bit down for me but it is still right among the best in the franchise.All in all, Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation provides the entertainment that the audience expects from it. Tom Cruise proves once again why he is an icon in action movie history with mind-blowing stunts and McQuarrie is able to elevate the levels of tension and suspense in the already fantastic action set pieces. Beautiful-looking and with a perfect score, a captivating story and a brilliant cast, filled with compelling characters. Definitely, one of the best of the saga.
tuckfinite Nicotine is a mild diverse psychoactive drug. Scientific, technological, and commercial ingenuity and innovation resulted in production of sufficient quantities of nicotine to satisfy public demand. The demand was so great because psychotropic drugs assuage fear(aka tension, stress, anxiety)and prop up ego. ALSO THE SHORT TERM SIDE EFFECTS WERE NEGLIGIBLE. Do you wonder what might be discovered if a few hundred mil develop a 2 pack a day THC habit? But the question here is why do people give a damn about cgi and comic book characters literal or virtual? No relevance to their lives. Just pretty colors and bright shiny objects? It assuages fear and supports ego. Thinly disguised mild paganism with negligible short term side effects.
writekelvin Christopher Macquarie has written and directed the most tightly-plotted and incredible in this successful franchise. It's no surprise that he is the only director that has been invited back to script and direct the next one as well. Mission Impossible pits Ethan Hunt against an enemy that is cold, calculative and brilliant. And to watch the cat and mouse game played out between the two makes for a tense and thrilling time at the movies. The ending is better than the previous installments because it is not over-the-top, but rather it comes down to a clever examination of what makes Ethan Hunt fundamentally different from his enemy at the core of their values. What is perceived as Ethan's weakness (of caring too much about his team) actually becomes the master-stroke in how he manages to defeat his most cunning enemy. Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation gives us one of the best villains in the spy thriller genre, not to mention one of the best female characters who is complex and keeps us guessing to the end. Highly recommended!
tyelder Jam packed with action, comedy, and tables turned around every corner. Exciting to watch and an outstanding score of 5 stars deserved. Absolutely recommended to watch. This franchise has hit its peak and now is set sail for the sky. -TE (8.5.15)
