Steps in to protect Mission Impossible 2
Hey guys, sure it wasnt a best film ever, but did I had fun with it? Hell yeah. I even liked Tom Cruise, whose only other film I like is Legend. I thought it was entertianing and fun action flick, definately better then part one, which was a BORE
Most of you will probably wont agree with my opinion about original MI, saying that it was more closer to its tv series roots, have interesting intrigue and good action scenes and characters. So here what I say:
The story was too complicated for its own good, many parts didnt made any sence, action scenes were boring(run Tom run, that exploding aquariun sequence was awfull !!! ). I didnt like its characters, other than Ving Rhames and Jean Reno. Again, the whole part on the train with suction cups and exploding gum was stupid. And Cruise was a wimpy super agent.
Now fast forward to MI2. Its totally different Ethan Hunt. He is cool, tough and can kick ass this time around. Action scenes were exciting, John Woo, knows how to stage action, I didnt had problems with story as many people did, and acting was acceptable. So, call it crap as much as you want, I still like it
Now, about MI 3. I wonder how FIncher's visual style will affect the franchise. Will it go to the its thriller roots, or will continue to Woo, action path, only with exciting visuals?
I bet it will be something new and orginal, so I'm all excited about it.
