These reviews cant be accurate. Worst MI to date. No story, no intrigue, really bad acting, bad action and fighting scenes. There was no typical exciting start as with the other installments. After the mediocre opening scene, the movie starts with a very basic plot, and it stays basic. I kept waiting for an evolving plot, complexities in story line, character development etc. In stead, you get dragged along 2.5 hours of nothing. New characters , old characters, all bad. At one stage, it felt like I was watching a really bad version of a fast and furious movie with the same cringeworthy one liners and dialogue. There is a sword/knife fighting scene on a bridge, that was so badly done, that it felt amateurish. The only good thing about the end, was that it ended and I could move on, forgetting about 2.5 hours of my life that I lost. The movie was so bad, I will not watch part 2. Couldn't be bothered.
