Hmm...was a pretty standard MI movie for me. How many times already they're gonna be accused of being double agent etc.? Action scenes were no doubt good, kinda wished they spent a bit more time on the plane stunt considering how much effort to shoot it. A good movie, but to be the best spy movie of the year it's gotta beat Spectre and U.N.C.L.E.
Overall it's a good watch but I still think the previous one was far more entertaining. This one didn't have much memorable action scene unlike the previous one with the breaking into the Kremlin and Dubai part. The plane scene didn't last long which is a shame. The jokes and cool gadgets are also lesser here for those who wants to know.
Interesting that Malaysia was mentioned. Didn't know they knew we existed.

- china invested in this movie - i lol when i saw alibaba name in opening credit - zhang jingchu was barely there, appeared for 20-30sec - started quite fun with minsk in belarus and the aeroplane scene - luther was in malaysia? KL Tower? To hack into russian satellite? - The record shop girl: Hermione Corfield (u r welcome) - ethan in detention room in london: easy escape from the pole. Anyway it was fun to watch - flight 606 : mh 307? Haha (Previous MI has a scene with MAS billboard, was it MI2?) - no kissing scenes and no intimacy scenes unlike MI3
- opera scene quite fun - morocco underwater scene quite fun : deux ex machina - anyway just 50-50 of guessing correct security board
- Rebecca ferguson is good - Ethan as Atlee was predictable - ending was nice with bulletproof glass cubicle - "welcome to IMF, Mr Secretary" - fun ending
Last part quite boring. Fell asleep for almost 15 mins. Once action starts, woke up. Overall, previous Ghost Protocol still the best. Of course, nothing will be at the 60s and 90s TV series.
The climax wasn't as action packed because they were trying to take down the big boss mentally instead of physically. Unlike the previous movie where each member is assigned to do certain things at the end and you get to see them do it, you don't see that here. Everyone just sorta appeared all together at the end. Not a big deal though because I still thought it was a bit of a surprise at the end because we didn't really know what their plan was.
Can't help but notice the big boss has damn big nostrils.

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation review! The fifth installment of the Mission Impossible franchise. So far, I enjoyed this movie but somehow I find Ghost Protocol alot better. But this doesn't mean this movie is bad though. It's still good and worth the watch. The movie is about Ethan Hunt, who is being hunted by The Syndicate, a secret international criminal consortium. To make matters worst, the IMF unit was disbanded due to the events of Ghost Protocol, which the head of the CIA thinks that eventhough the unit can complete the mission, their unorthodox methods and also the damage done is far too severe, making Ethan getting no help from there and also being branded as a fugitive.
Returning characters are Benji(played by the ever funny Simon Pegg), hacker Luther Stickler(played by Ving Rhames from the previous series as well) and also William Brandt(played by Jeremy Renner). Newcomer of the series is Rebecca Ferguson, plays as MI6 double agent, Ilsa Faust. God, one thing about her is her legs. Her gorgeous, luscious long legs...*drools*...*ahem* Excuse me...
The action of this movie are fun to watch and the motorcycle chase scene was a wow. Comedy is no less either, all thanks to Simon and Jeremy, which both characters gives some comedic screen time. I like the movie, however, I prefer Ghost Protocol alot more. Worth mentioning is that the plane scene, where Tom Cruise was holding on while it was taking off and flying, that was real. It was him doing the stunts! Overall, I give this movie a good 8 out of 10.
Overall, very fun movie and some part hilarious. I just feel that the film dragged somewhere after the awesome bike chase, and for all the build up, the Syndicate and Lane were lame

I agree the plane scene should be at a climactic scene. The movie has its flaws. I felt the intro was draggy but the story is good for a mission impossible movie. overall its a fun movie. 3.5/5

The makers of Mission: Impossible 5 will look to court the lucrative Chinese market by casting local star Zhang Jingchu in a leading role opposite Tom Cruise, reports Variety.

Do any of you guys feel that MI series losing the feel of the original MI series? Like got a team of 4-5 ppl, each one got a particular task to do in a mission. Like the first MI, when the mission went awry
