To anyone who isn't a huge Tom Cruise or Mission Impossiblle fan: don't get fooled by the superbly positive reviews here. It's average. It's ridiculously predictable, the plot mostly feels like your average 24 or NCIS episode. The action scenes are mostly well made (apart from some physically impossible stuff, but well... it's an action movie), so the movie is okay for a brain off action on session, but it's really nothing more. The acting is at best okay overall. The worst thing is that this movie just doesn't do anything to deserve all these absurd 9 and 10 ratings, making me wonder how many of these are just paid for.
