Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation
Rating 7.5 out of 10
I was looking forward to seeing this movie. I have seen the previous Mission:Impossible movies and while I enjoyed them I never had the desire for a second viewing on DVD or cable. The preview is packed with action and adventure for Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his gang. I'm sure somewhere in there they would save the world.
The movie starts with the exciting Hunt on the outside of a plane trying to get in as it takes off. The plane has enough nerve gas to wipe out a city and bad guys wanting to use it. Some genius in Washington decides the IMF is obsolete and should be disbanded. They are just not needed anymore. didn't you read about the nerve gas on the plane??? When the government guy (Alec Baldwin) shuts everyone down Hunt goes rogue knowing there is one big plan to release enough money to fund the bad guys in terrorism for many years to come.
There is a ton of action and things that go boom. Cool motorcycle riding and car chases. My issue with this and all the other MI movies is they just tend to over think everything and make things way more complicated than they need to be. The very cool scene where Cruise jumps in the big whirlpool of water holding his breath to get the bit of secret information is great to look at. But hold a gun to my head and I couldn't tell you what exactly he was in there to get.
Still it is an exciting movie and I was entertained. If you liked any of the first MI movies you will enjoy this one.
