Review of Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011) by Daniel C — 03 Feb 2014
Ethan & co must clear the IMF & prevent a nuclear war.
The fourth instalment of the Mission: Impossible franchise cranks up the action and is probably the best of all of them so far.
Stunning locations in Moscow, Dubai and Mumbai and death-defying stunts like hanging off the side of the Burj Khalifa or a fight in a multi-storey car park abound in this movie that shows the Bond franchise how to do a proper spy/action film.
While the unbelievability factor has certainly come down since M:I-2, there is at least some sense of realism in how the scenes play out. My main criticism lies with the overuse of BMW products to the point that everyone was driving them at one point and the concept car pushed the believability factor just a tad for me.
Tom Cruise does a great job in this flick and it seems he can keep the franchise going for a few more outings. This was definitely an entertaining ride and I look forward to what the next instalment holds.
