I go all the way back to the original black and white TV series Mission Impossible with Peter Graves, Martin Landau and Barbara Bain. When the franchise was reinvented on the Silver Screen with Tom Cruise in the lead I made sure to see them all. To tell the truth they were enjoyable but in the range of a 7 score. This latest movie is a 10 as it will keep you on the edge of your seat, has tension, with just enough comic relief and action to make it very enjoyable. Cruise is masterful in this flick. The best part is you won't be able to figure out the ending which I'm always able to do. This one is a sure crowd pleaser so don't miss it.… Expand

I've seen all of the Mission: Impossible movies and the main thing I've thought of this series is that each movie in the series is better than the one that preceded it. (A true rarity in the movie industry.) I thought that "Ghost Protocol"I've seen all of the Mission: Impossible movies and the main thing I've thought of this series is that each movie in the series is better than the one that preceded it. (A true rarity in the movie industry.) I thought that "Ghost Protocol" was a pretty darn good movie so I had a bit of trepidation about whether "Rogue Nation" would be any better. THIS MOVIE DELIVERED!!!

This movie gets my vote as the best of the summer.

It's a good story and very good action sequences; what you would expect in a good summer movie. But, I thought it handled a main question of many good spy movies in great fashion: "Who can you trust?"

Another thing I really like about it to was the ending (which I won't reveal). But, the way the movie ended reminded me of the Mission: Impossible TV series (which, of course, the movie series is based on). Now, that feeling is one that is not easily duplicated!… Expand

The stunts are fantastic, the cat and mouse situations between the spies trying to figure each other out was very entertaining, and a I love it when a woman beats up a bunch of guys,mover and over again. She's certainly Ethan's match! Then there's the supporting cast who are so loyal to one another, they would die for the other and it's wonderful to see Alex Baldwin added to this very close, supporting cast. Finally, the masks, I keep forgetting about them so you never know who you're really seeing. I will continue to watch this franchise as it scontinues to entertain.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the more underrated movies in the MI franchise, but if this puts you off don't let it because it's not thumbs down to the movie, in-fact it's probably because the script is more down to earth and believable that I give this movie 10/10. Everything falls effortlessly into place and that is attributed to the director, good script and great acting.
McQuarrie literally rewrites the rules, setting up the biggest stunt in the movie in the 1st 5 mins and thinks nothing of it. It's a bold move, but it works.
I enjoyed this movie thoroughly.… Expand

I haven't read anyone pointing this out yet. Yes this movie is full of crazy action (with a bit of a nod to Empire Strikes back oddly enough in an climactic scene), but the way the movie is shot, the fact that it actually gives you breathing space now and then for story, the complexity of its plot, the fact that certain scenes especially inside and outside the opera house are very distinctly influenced by Alfred Hitchcock, and the incredible classic old world style of Rebecca Furguson, make this an action film unlike any other this century, and a stand-out unique entry in the Mission Impossible series - for my money the very best of them. Again. See it!… Expand

Finally, a director has realized the major importance of humour in theseInsanely entertaining and wildly funny. Rogue Nation is the absolute best Mission Impossible movie in the franchise. Tom Cruise is still kicking ass, and looking badass. Finally, a director has realized the major importance of humour in these movies, a slight overlaying of cheesy one liners helps, but doesn't qualify as comedy. Rogue Nation is funnier than one can expect. Spectacular car chases, grand action set pieces and exotic locations are all included in package, and Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg are actually pretty amazing. But the real star is, of course, 53 years old badass, Tom Cruise, who drives supercars through narrow roads, rides motorbikes on top of the edges of dizzyingly high cliffs, while shooting bad guys with a superlong pistol. The plot revolves around a "rogue nation' called the Syndicate and Ethan Hunt and company trying to find out if the Syndicate exists and if it does, to kill everyone associated with it. Trouble is, no one can be trusted. The plot is simple to understand, and doesn't fish much into the movie lineup to make sure you have watched every single film in the series to watch Rogue Nation. Slick action, solid scripting, great action and Tom Cruise as badass as ever make Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation a wonder of filmmaking for years to come. Simply put, just watch it.… Expand

Mission Impossible Rogue Nation is a combination of everything great that made the original stand out as a deep,intriguing spy-espionage film,while also taking elements of more streamlined,adrenaline-fueled action that made Ghost ProtocolMission Impossible Rogue Nation is a combination of everything great that made the original stand out as a deep,intriguing spy-espionage film,while also taking elements of more streamlined,adrenaline-fueled action that made Ghost Protocol equally important and satisfying.The result of this rather riksy mixture,is the best Mission film to date.

Rogue Nation works on many levels,from action to story to characters to pacing,writeer/director Chris McQuarrie ,manages to craft a brilliantly compelling story,about family,friendship and how far will the already established team go to protect each-other in the tough circumstances that they're put into,loyalties get put to the test ,whilst character interactions are handled with incredible amount of care and emotion ,thanks to terrific performances from the entire cast of IMF members and some great writing to back it up.The main reason why these films is that the team always feels essential to delivering the emotional punch that it should and here it works extremely well.Tom Cruise is one of the most reliable action stars today,not only will he deliver death-defying authentic stunts(i mean seriously the guy attaches himself to a plane and flies with it hanging on the wing,8 times)he continues to be the same enigmatic and highly intelligent Ethan Hunt that we've known and loved for so many years now,yet here Cruise is at his most dangerous and most vulnerable,his will to constantly rush into these deadly situations is cleverly addressed here and becomes the main emotional point ,which brings the whole team to care about their riskiest companion.Simon Pegg as Benji gets more to do ,and his scenes with Cruise are some of the most hilarious and most sad really,Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames have smaller roles as Brandt and Luther ,but the script still gives them a few scenarious were you do feel their need to be there.ALec Baldwin on the other hand provides a nice intimidating touch to the whole film.Who surprised me the most was Rebecca Ferguson as British secret agent,working undercover in the villainous syndicate.She is the female equivalent of Ethan and kicks just as much ass,while having a really feminine look and attitude as well,she's charming,polite and meaningful.Last but not least,Sean Harris was actually really good as the main antagonist of the film,as a leader of a powerful rogue organization,his methods are cold and calculated,his nature is motivated and creepy,a true match for Ethan and the IMF,a great improvement over Ghost Protocol's villain whose motivations were unclear and felt like the worst part of the film.

Director Christopher McQuarrie has only directed 3 films previously,The way of the Gun(which was a poor start to say the least)his first team-up with Cruise in Jack Reacher(which i really enjoyed)you must think the action would be serviceable at best,well,it is anything but serviceable it's astonishing,every single action set-piece feels riveting and leaves you breathless by the end of it.The best thing is that the planning and the execution are both masterfully crafted.Listening in on how to breach an underwater safe,with no oxygen tanks ,rewiring 3 security disks,while also having to dodge and avoid a mechanical coolant-arm,just in time to clear the security pass for another one of the team's members,is nerve-racking,and the execution of it completely lives up to the intense organizing.Aside from that the films has THE BEST motorcycle chase i've seen in films,a perfect use of practical effects and a handful of stylish directorial tricks such as POV shots ,make going at 120mph ,avoiding traffic ,while being held at constant gunpoint a pure roller-coaster,without railing to hold onto.An opera house assassination has some superbly choreographed fight sequences too,the characters full use of the constantly shifting environment makes for a fight that's more about wit than fists and shows just how much McQuarrie pays attention to detail to enhance the combat experience and make it something more than a well-shot fist-leg bumps.Yet what's most surprisingly welcome is that McQuarrie sticks to a rather quiet and intimate final act,showcasing that the battle between Ethan and Solomon,is more intellectual than physical.Fortunately though Ferguson manages to fend off and win in a fantastic knife-fight scene that had my pulse pounding ,and made me understand that women can wrap their legs up on you in not-so-fun ways too.

Filled with spectacular action,amazing characters ,a rich detailed plot that cleverly flips genre conventions and cliches on their head and finds new ways to reintroduce them in new ways,while still mainting heart and soul and family at it's course,Mission Impossible Rogue Nation is my favorite Mission film yet,huge props to McQuarrie for keeping the franchise on the roll and not letting it run out of steam and five movies in ,it's hard to believe but...................I still want more :)… Expand

I had almost accepted the fact that it was too much to ask for a smart, funny, and action-packed movie these days. (I’ve been a bit disappointed with some recent blockbusters this year, which I
enjoyed but know could’ve been better.) But II had almost accepted the fact that it was too much to ask for a smart, funny, and action-packed movie these days. (I’ve been a bit disappointed with some recent blockbusters this year, which I
enjoyed but know could’ve been better.) But I was thoroughly happy to be proven wrong when I saw Mission: Impossible--Rogue Nation.

**Tom Cruise gives his 100% as IMF agent Ethan Hunt--fully embracing the role and doing all the stunts. **Benji (Simon Pegg) is funny (didn’t expect him to be playing CoD at work). He’s juxtaposed well with the slightly cynical and weary Hunt, as he’s more naive and not battle-hardened. **Rebecca Ferguson is convincing in her role--she’s not frail or weak, she’s athletic and actually sort of muscular. She’s not overly sexualized, made a love interest, or a victim.

**We get an interesting character in Alec Baldwin’s Alan Hunley, director of the CIA--who doesn’t trust the IMF. Director Hunley has gravitas, and he has screen presence. You wonder whether or not he’s helping the Syndicate. **William Brandt (Jeremy Renner) and Luther (Ving Rhames) both needed more screentime.

The movie kicks off with a big stunt (apparently done by Cruise himself). Once the action starts, it doesn’t let up. Chasing after a MacGuffin and the Syndicate leads Cruise from one location to another, with various members of his team showing up to assist along the way.

If you want to be judgemental, nothing in ‘Mission Impossible 5’ is over-the-top or mindblowing (in terms of the script and action sequences), but the movie is better than most other films in both of those departments. The script and action scenes are smart, relying more on suspense than eye-candy. Director Christopher McQuarrie succeeds where most have struggled, in terms of balancing a decent script, action, comedy, and characters. The cinematography and editing is well done (as showcased in the Vienna opera scene).

I definitely wouldn’t say that ‘Rogue Nation’ was too predictable or a bore. I really enjoyed myself when I watched the movie. Action, suspense, sharp dialogue, and humor make the film a treat. The cast helps give the film a contagious and exhilarating energy. I honestly was surprised by some of the film's twists. (But it should be noted that I’m new to the franchise.)

I think “Rogue Nation” deserves a 10, and not because it’s perfect. The villain wasn’t that memorable, and characters like Luther and Brandt needed more screentime. Nevertheless, it’s the closest a 2015 action film has been to a 10 (at least for me). Director Christopher McQuarrie manages to make old tropes feel fun again, and balance a lot of components to make a great, enjoyable film.

I have reviewed 43 movies (on Metacritic and IMDB), some recent ones, including: Minions (Despicable Me spin-off), Avengers: Age of Ultron, Fast and Furious 7, The Divergent Series: Insurgent, Taken 3, and more. I also review TV shows.… Expand

The words I can use to describe this movie do not exist. The fight scenes were done excellently, one thing that worried me was that the movie was pushed from December to July 31st, but it was worth it. Rebecca Ferguson, I don't know what she has done but she should be in a lot more things. Jeremy Renner was a better Aaron Cross in this movie than he was in Bourne Legacy (I hope that makes sense) Another thing that was really well done was how they didn't make the story to convoluted, what I mean by that is movies not just spy movies think by putting a bunch of plot points together in some unorginized fashion is clever.

I feel it is even better than it's previous film Ghost Protocol. The action and stunts are really enjoyable and the camera angles, speed, as well as timing is done just about right so you're not too confused as to what's going on. Something that this film series always gets right.

I also liked that they kind of bumped up the storyline as well, whilst still making it somewhat similar to it's previous films. But I still feel that it needs to be worked on as it's still very similar to the previous two films, the third and fourth one. But maybe we will see an improvement in it's sequel. But lets be honest, the MI series is best known for it's action and great acting, not it's storyline.

It was just a great thrill ride and it's one of those films that I wish was longer because I enjoyed it that much which is kind of rare for me. Especially films that come out nowadays.

I cant wait to see what they do next to raise the bar with its sequel.… Expand

What really got me going here was the action sequences and the filming. Everything was so well thought out and captured - the angles were always amazing that I felt like I was almost there. Movies that feature a lot of movement and action scripting don't always try to do anything too elaborate/interesting, and that can be the make/break of a movie like this. I don't know why anyone would really hate this movie, but for me I enjoyed it so much I will definitely be catching this one again when it's out on Blu-ray.… Expand

He just wasn't really villain material. I mean, This is a franchise who had actors like Jon Voight and Phillip Seymour Hoffman as the lead villain. I expected a tad better performance than the half mumbled dialogue that Harris performed through out.

Not with Mission: Impossible, it seems, because Rogue Nation is yet another incredibly silly yet undeniably entertaining entry in the 17 year old franchise that keeps you on the edge of your seat for the entire movie. This time around, Ethan Hunt is now an international fugitive and must take on his most impossible mission (heh) to bring down the rogue organization Syndicate, who are committed to bring down the IMF. The plot twists keep you on your toes the whole time, and it's really what makes Rogue Nation so thrilling. It does succumb to the normal spy movie goofiness, one time in particular early in the movie that made me shake my head at how ridiculous the whole idea was. The double, triple and quadruple crosses get rather confusing as the plot progresses too. There's never a dull moment in Rogue Nation, a suitably fun and over-the-top summer blockbuster, and it proves that Tom Cruise is an unstoppable action star.… Expand

Director Christopher McQuarrie has another amazing team up with Tom Cruise after Edge of Tomorrow, not only delivering an exciting thriller well balanced by suspense, actions and humors at the right moment, but also the fun, shrewd and metaphorical dialogues throughout the entire film. The well structured plot helps a lot in full character developments of all the cast while the chemistry between Cruise and Ferguson is excellent which enables the audiences to feel the interpersonal engagement and teamwork spirit in completing the impossible mission. Joe Kraemer does well in composing the scores by mixing the MI theme into different style of musics while the action sequences are captured in great cinematography angle and in a variety of shootings, hand combats and vehicles chasing. The twisting at climax and the surprising way to end the fate of the impossible villain are presented at a perfect pacing, leading this installment as the bridge connection to potentially expand further and deeper.… Expand

Just his background score strikes into my ears and there is something big going to happen on the screen. This is enough for a cine-goer to understand what the movie and the performances of the actors are up to. ‘Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation’ as usual a spy action thriller just like his previous Mission Impossible Series. But the Screenplay treatment of this movie is very good which makes us to get locked onto the seat for 2hr 11min. As usual there is brilliance portrayal of Ethan Hunt by Tom Cruise and also from his team. One can easily guess the movie in half way but lead character’s acting domination is soul for this Rogue Nation. Here you can see the confrontation of American Intelligence and British Intelligence to stop a Rogue Nation called ‘Syndicate’ is what the entire movie is about. Though story can be guessed easily Christopher McQuarrie Screenplay and Direction impresses us a lot. Joe Kraemer’s score is life to the movie. Rest of the Technical Department is as usually good. Whether you are an ardent fan of MI Quadrilogy or not this one never disappoints you. Experiencing this in IMAX is really a visual feast for your eyes. So why late guys??… Expand

The film takes some liberties, and has a few inventions that don't seem technologically possible, but at the st seems as though Mission Impossible has become the Fast and Furious of spy films, where it may not be the most realistic, but it remains aware, and constantly tries to up itself. As well the film has a few too many clichés, and has a somewhat weak villain, but due to it's engrossing plot, great action, sense of humor, and it's nearly non-stop pacing these flaws are in general forgivable.… Expand

When you see one of the movies like these, it gives you a rare feeling. It’s a movie that shockingly stabs your heart like a storm. Luckily, Mission Impossible 5 is one of those movies that feels that way.

Tom Cruise plays really well as Ethan Hunt although the performances from every single actor were wonderful like they felt it, but it’s the action sequences that steal the show which are so much fun. Some of the action sequences that I’ve personally enjoyed are the motorcycle chase and the underwater sequence. Yes, the movie is very violent and it can be a bit slow at times. But it is an action movie with terrific performances, action, humor, and heart.

And BOOM - here comes Rogue Nation, and boy - did it come with a bang. Let me just say right off the bat that, this is probably my favorite Mission Impossible film…by far.

Gone are the days that you’d need slow motion, flying white doves or lens flairs to make a Mission Impossible film interesting, this brand new installment of the franchise rejuvenises the aging series in an explosive and exciting way. What I like about the Mission films is that, much like the Harry Potter and James Bond movies, each installment of the series brings something different and refreshing, thanks to their ever changing directors. And like the Marvel films, each Mission Impossible embodies a different action genre.

I have to admit, I wasn’t the biggest fan of Jack Reacher. It was an okay action film that didn’t do much else for me. So when the announcement was made that Christopher McQuarrie was directing the fifth mission impossible I was a little skeptical. Even after I saw the trailer I still had my reservation toward the finished product. I mean I have so much respect for JJ Abrams and Brad Bird that the inner nerd in me, sorta-kinda wished they had picked someone with a better track record. With all that said, the first five minutes into this movie I was convinced that my months and months of worries were for nothing. Like I was sold. I can honestly say right now that this is the best mission impossible film to date.

Now, my biggest issue with Ghost Protocol was that although it was very entertaining, it didn’t have that edge on your seat suspense like Mission 3 did, and that plus a weak and generic villain robbed away some of the potentially intense moments. This time around, we have a formidable villain who is someone even Ethan refers to during one very nail-biting scene as “his equal”. And his plan is pretty screwed up. He’s not the in your crazy, in your face villain, he’s soft spoken and civil and that’s what makes him so **** dangerous because throughout the film I had this feeling that he was this time bomb waiting to explode. He really raised the stake of the game, and the audience despised him for that, I know I did, when I wanted someone to show him who’s boss, like, I wanted him to be taught a lesson in the end. When a villain gets the audience to feel that way, it’s usually a sign that it’s a very well written character.

Another well-written character is newcomer to the series, Rebecca Ferguson. I didn’t know who she was before this film. But now, oh yeah. She was such a badass in this movie. Not only that, but she is not your typical Mission Impossible filler girl, she is an actual person with a pretty neat character development and story arc. It’s been a while since the Mission series had a female character with substance and also knows how to kick ass. Her character is such a breath of fresh air that it made an already top-notch movie even more exciting. One of the highlights of the film, in my opinion.

Of course, then you have the returning characters from the previous movies like Benji, Brandt and Luther who were more or less the side characters but were still pretty much in the picture. They are mostly responsible for the comic relief moments of the movie. And the genuine camaraderie among these characters just makes this team really great. Like you want to root for them to win.

The biggest thing I like about the direction Chris McQuarrie took the movie is that, it’s acknowledging the fact that this is an aging franchise. It managed to make references to all four previous Mission Impossible movies, and as a long time fan I feel like this was a very a smart move. With the exception of James bond, when a franchise that stretches to as long as 20 years, it usually screams been there done that. But Mission Impossible manages to avoid all that which is very neat.

Of course, while the movie handled the characters pretty well, its action sequences are just as stellar. Apart from tom cruise dangling in midair on an airplane, a stunt he actually performed himself, there were many other spectacular action scenes, notably, a stunt-filled, high-speed freeway chase that not only provided a neat little throwback to the motorcycle chase from Mission 2, but also kept me holding my breath from its sheer action galore. There is an underwater sequence with no music in the background which really threw the audience into the movie itself and that was breathtakingly intense. This movie probably has the best action scenes in the entire franchise.

The movie for me is a perfect blend of all four previous Mission Impossibles, and everything just flows so well and fits together seamlessly. I was still thinking about this movies hours after seeing it on opening weekend. It’s what a summer action blockbuster should be, and it’s what every mission impossible fan deserves.… Expand

And just like the franchise, Tom shows no signs of slowly down, even with age catching up to them both.
All the actors do pretty well (especially Simon Pegg, as he almost always does) but even the minor characters do surprisingly well. The stunts? As spectacular as ever. Nothing truly "tops" the skyscraper scene in Ghost Protocol, but there is more then enough action to keep you interested. The fight scenes are fantastically shot, but sadly lacking next to any Marvel movie in recent times. But, what the film lacks in fist fights, it makes up for in unexpected laughs and frantic, edge-of-your-seat moments.
As far as the movies plot goes, this is not a Christopher Nolan film. There aren't any twists or turns to leave you scratching your head, and almost every "reveal" I had predicted. But, for a mindless good time, I cant think of a better alternative.… Expand

Mission-Impossible Rogue Nation was one of the best movies I have seen all year! It is filled with action, adventure,and emotion. It is absolutely thrilling to watch with an almost non stop fast action paced adventure. Especially stunningMission-Impossible Rogue Nation was one of the best movies I have seen all year! It is filled with action, adventure,and emotion. It is absolutely thrilling to watch with an almost non stop fast action paced adventure. Especially stunning performances go out to both Tom Cruise, and Simon Pegg. This movie was released on July, 31, 2015. This story is about special agents who were apart of the IMF (Impossible Mission Force) which was recently disbanded, and their fight against a new threat called the Sindicate. The Sindicate is trying to establish a new world order and it is up to Ethan Hunt and his team of rogue spies to take them down. This movie exemplifies many good qualities which make it the great clip you can see today. These include great actors, amazing special effects and stunts, and emotion which really catches the watcher's eyes and heart. Mission-Impossible Rogue Nation falls under the criteria of being an action, adventure, and drama. It carries a message that shows all of the hard work that the team has to put forth to try and save the world, and might even inspire some to stand up against evil in their own community in whatever way possible.
The great actors involved in the movie are one of the main reasons that this was a great hit! Tom Cruise, Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, and Jeremy Renner just to name a few did a phenomenal job acting in this movie. As Spangle states via metacritic “Tom Cruise and Rebecca Ferguson have fantastic chemistry and both turn in top-notch performances.” Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg were also very good supporting actors in this film. They both had extremely funny moments, making me at many times laugh out loud. They all know what their doing and it shows! Their performance had a great mix of seriousness and comedy, making a very entertaining clip.
The special effects and stunts in this movie were mind-blowing! Going into the movie I knew that Tom Cruise did all of his stunts, but wow! He was once strapped to the side of an Airbus A400 and it took him eight takes to get it right! The special effects working side by side with the stunts make the movie look as real as possible, because most of it was. Peter Caranicas from Variety news had an insider's take on the filming of Mission Impossible Rouge Nation’s Airbus scene “The crew went through several takes over two days, with the plane climbing to nearly 5,000 feet each time. “Everything you see is real,” Eastwood says. “It was all Tom.”” It is just amazing what Tom Cruise is willing to accomplish in order to give his audience the best possible viewing experience.
Emotion runs very high almost constantly with this movie. There are so many fast paced action scenes that it make it hard to catch a breath. Ethan hunt and his fellow operatives are not only under physical emotion but also mental. They are accompanied by Rebecca Ferguson who plays Ilsa Faust, and are unsure if she is friend or foe. Shadowyx12 makes many good points coming from a review off IMdB, “The action scenes in this film are also some of the best in this franchise. Soon after showing Ethan Hunt take off on the side of an airbus, the film kicks it into overdrive and delivers an adrenaline rush packed with REALLY well done car chases, okay hand-to-hand combat scenes (they're kind of choppy), and ONE very suspenseful, pulse-pounding scene involving multiple snipers.”
In conclusion, Misson Impossible Rogue Nation has the potential to be one of the best and emotionally draining movies of the year. Between it’s great actors involved in the making of the movie, mind blowing special effects and stunts, to all of it's emotionally draining and high intensity sequences, I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good action thriller clip which will get them talking and amazed about what these special agents were willing to do for their country in need. The movie may have some minor errors in the film direction, such as props being misplaced and what not, but I believe most would be thoroughly entertained after watching this great clip.… Expand

That makes the CIAThe Missio Impossible franchise achieves it's fifth movie. Our hero now is facing a terrorist organization named Syndicate, but this time the villain is always ahead of Ethan Hunt in what he do, so he never catches him. That makes the CIA thinks that Ethan is mad and the Impossible Mission Force (IMF) is outdated and needs to be closed. So both CIA and the terrorists will eventually wants Ethan. So our main guy and his team will do their best to eradicate the Syndicate. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie.
The main problem with almost all the other mission impossible movie was it's story, in this one it isn't much different, but i gotta say that it is much better compared to the others, i got engaged in the unroll of what was happpening. Of course that it is still needed a lot of suspension of disbelief in some moments, there are somethings that just don't make sense and is essential to make the plot flow, is needed to get away with it, but the cern leading aspects of the story are very nice, it does brough back a little of what the first one had. The aspect of having double agents or even a triple agent is really intriguing, you don't get to be sure in what side someone is what we had in the first one that we kind of lost during the franchis but now is back, and that is a very nice aspect. Considering that this is the fifth movie and 19 years after the first one come out, we have a lot of lore of this movies, and the director new it and didn't waste time to refer a lot of the others, even in a little dialogue or even in a whole sequence, that didn't bothered me, it was together with the narrative and was nice. The finally moments of the movie are exactly like other one, depend on you if you think this as a nice reference or a creative problem during the course of the movie. It does have a lot of cliches, but the director worked well with those. The chemistry between all the old characters worked very well, incluiding the new one with Ilsa, she with Ethan was very organic. The villain isn't bad, but maybe a little more of motivation, explanation in what he was doing would have been very welcome.
The acting one more time was pretty good. Tom Cruise of course doing a great job, mainly because of his actions, that he delivery perfectly, and also giving to us a completely different Ethan, an evolved one that doesn't waste time with smiles and stuff, it is really nice to see the character evolving. Rebecca Ferguson is by far the best action company that Tom has had during all of these movies, she is perfect as a multiple agent spy, and also have that look of regret in some moments, or that confident one, she was great. Simon Pegg was one more time a comic relief with a lot of functional and crucial moments to the plot, he is always very funny and here he keeped that tone and definely did a great job, he also had some dramatic little moments that were very functional. Jeremy Renner didn't had much to do, but he worked very well, always good to have good actors doing support parts, help the movie to keep stable. Ving Rhames is back as a needed in a crucial part, he can maintain the character characteristics since the first one, he was very nice. Sean Harris is the main villain here, and i gotta say that he killed it, he totally convinced me that he is a psycho with that calm voice, saying "please" all the time, he was terrifyng.
The action scenes are wonderful, the main reason is that we don't have much cgi or green screen, things are actually real, and that makes a total diference, i could feel the place and everything that was there. I gottaa say that the best action sequence of the franchise isn't in this one, but in general, talking about the whole movie, it is the one with the best amount of action, all of them worked, some of them got me worried about the situation, putting our main guy in a extreme situation with that level of realism is always a memorable part.
The soundtrack worked, it helped to give context the tension in some scenes. The main theme is still very dope, even that in this one it didn't had any peculiarity. And one more time it have that very important part, without cgi, without green screen and without doubles, things are real, and one more time Tom Cruise was brilliant, he is definely one of the few actors that make real stuff.
The cinematography is very beautiful, the movie takes place in several countries, and it maked visually have a lot of diversity here, different places in different moments, that was very nice.
This movie is great, the realism and the action are all memorable, the story is very good, there are some cliches and things that are out of place, but if you relieve this, it will surely be a very good time.… Expand

With a fresh script from writer and director Chirstopher Mcquarrie and fine acting by Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner, Rebecca Ferguson and Alec Baldwin, Mr. Cruise performs admirably in his role as leader of the IMF. The film is fast paced with breathtaking action scenes and a plot that keeps unraveling at the same speed as the action on the screen. Rumored to have performed many of the action scenes himself, Mr. Cruse is the definitive action hero. Although slightly over 2 hours in length, the viewer is never concerned about that because he or she is too busy following what is taking place on the screen. I give the film an 8.0 and trust that most who watch it will be as pleasantly surprised as I was to find that it is a mission possible for some sequels to be as good or better than the original..… Expand

Tom Cruise really does risk his life in the opening scene of this movie. It is not an optical illusion or a stunt man. It is Cruise himself hanging on for dear life to the side of an airplane that has taken off and become airborne. However,Tom Cruise really does risk his life in the opening scene of this movie. It is not an optical illusion or a stunt man. It is Cruise himself hanging on for dear life to the side of an airplane that has taken off and become airborne. However, he has been harnessed so that if he had slipped in the filming, he would have presumably survived, falling only a few feet before being secured. But how many actors could perform that stunt even with a harness? One gets the impression that Daniel Craig takes an island vacation when it's time to film the stunts—he relies on a professional double to do the risky stuff.

This film may at times be a little overwhelmed by the many chase scenes, but the plot keeps the audience guessing about which double agent is betraying whom. Cruise's character, the indefatigable Ethan Hunt, is a man who has a guardian angel sitting on his shoulder so that no real harm can ever befall him. He is a strict purist, a defender of the peace, a human superhero, and as the CIA head (Alec Baldwin) puts it, “the living manifestation of destiny.” (A few critics commented on the guffaws provoked by this line—nobody laughed at my showing in Montreal, but oddly enough, at the end of the film there was a round of applause.) In short, Hunt is to spies as the Dalai Lama is to Buddhist monks.

The IMF (Impossible Mission Force) is trying to stop the latest incarnation of evil, Solomon Lane (Sean Harris), from assassinating all the heads of state as part of a master plan conducted by the Syndicate, an international crime network. Lane is an insanely criminal mastermind, and in no time at all, he has Hunt captured and hanging by his wrists in a torture chamber. Even Hunt cannot escape from this dilemma until a beautiful double agent, Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson) enters the room and miraculously releases him. Like Hunt, she is unflappable, invincible, and incorrigible. She is neither Bond girl, nor Bourne girl, nor any kind of girl. Ilsa Faust defies categorization. She is unique.

Thus begins a bizarre relationship between the two spies based on mutual respect, mutual desire for self-preservation, and mutual attraction, although consummate professionals that they are, they keep their distance from each other. Romance is clearly for mere mortals, a weakness that disciplined ninja-like warriors cannot afford to indulge. For them being impassioned means that you would do anything to save the world, whereas more carnal inclinations are to be derided as juvenile distractions.

In the end we have what has been termed the American answer to James Bond, and though Ethan Hunt is somewhat lacking in that droll British elegance, our roll-up-your-sleeves kind of folksy spy is actually more appealing. In a world where everyone has been speculating for years about who is going to replace Daniel Craig as the next 007, no one ever asks who is going to replace Tom Cruise. There's a reason for that—he is incontestably irreplaceable. Fortunately, Liam Neeson has set a new precedent with the Taken series, where aging spies who just want to retire are forced back into action because they are simply too good to hang out their gone fishin' sign. Neeson still inspires admiration at 63. Cruise is only 53, and like the character of Ethan Hunt, he can only get better with age.… Expand

McQuarrie,Believe it or not, until now I have never seen a Mission Impossible film. While I love action films, the premise just never appealed to me, but when I heard Christopher McQuarrie would be Directing this latest one, I had to see it. McQuarrie, the brains behind Persons Unknown, always tells imaginative stories, that while aren't that believable, are still extremely entertaining. In the fifth installment of Mission Impossible, the franchise is anything but stale as it is every bit as fast paced and extreme as I thought. I was expecting the action and for Tom Cruise to play his usually arrogant self, but what I wasn't expect was just how intense and in depth the story was. There is also the villain to consider, who was so much better than I hoped he'd be. I had always thought of Mission Impossible as sort of a mix between Get Smart and James Bond, and was presently surprised to learn that I was way off base. Rogue Nation is actually a very clever story, that isn't is as comical or as over the top with espionage as I thought it would be. In fact, the only thing that really was what I expected was Tom Cruise. While he's not my favorite actor, he's not a bad one either, I just never liked the fact that every character he plays is just so full of themselves. No matter the situation, Ethan Hunt was always so sure he had all the answers and knew exactly what to do, and even when he was wrong it didn't deter him from getting right back into it. Rogue Nation taught me a lesson I never seem to get, in that you really can't judge a book by it's cover. Certain stories may appear to be one thing, but you can never know for sure unless you sit down and watch them.… Expand

Tom Cruise stars as Ethan Hunt in his 5th and arguably 3rd best Mission Impossible movie. Tom is still a Rogue agent and the IMF is being disavowed by both congress and the CIA director, nicely played by Alec Baldwin. Ethan must pull his team together and put a stop to the Syndicate which wants to disrupt the balance of power in the world.

Tom is in great shape for an actor in his 50's and is joined by most of his team from Ghost Protocol. The movie leaves doubt about the allegiances of several main players throughout the movie in order to keep you guessing. There are plenty of hand to hand combat scenes, computer hacking scenes, air, ground and water scenes, and last but not least impossible mission scenes, which of course, is why you are interested in this movie.

Your mission Fan, should you choose to accept, is to go see the summer movie blockbuster that you have been waiting for and have a rollicking good time in the process. As always, should you or any of your friends not agree with this review, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This review will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Fan.… Expand

Checking your logic at the theatre door as you must in any action thriller--come on, 6 guys shoot at Cruise and he walks (well runs) away while he gets 4 rounds off and kills 4 guys!--the chases whether by cars, trucks, motorcycles and the numerous fights including fists, thighs, knives along with double crosses and who’s on whose side will hold your interest.

The story, also the director, by Christopher McQuarrie is sharp, basically straight forward making it easy to follow, and includes all the standard action scenes but done with a bit more than most.

Tom Cruise delivers with a strong performance physically and emotionally while Rebecca Ferguson as either his friend or his enemy equals Cruise in all the scenes and I don’t think there is a guy reading this who would want to get in a fight with her. Simon Pegg as part of Cruise’s team gets in quite a few funny bits and lines while Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames as the other members of the team don’t have much to do but impress whenever on screen.

Alec Baldwin as the head of the CIA, Simon McBurney as a member of the British intelligence group, along with Sean Harris as an impressive villain, along with a more impressive enforcer called The Bone Doctor played by Jens Hulten and various other supporting players add to the texture of the film.

Yes you might expect Hitchcock to show up, or hear Doris Day sing “Que Sera, Que Sara”, in the Vienna State opera House or bump into Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca but there is a good feeling along with the familiarity!

“Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation” is about 10 minutes too long and the underwater scene one of many illogical ones but the fact remains this is a fun adventure film that you will readily enjoy sitting back and get lost in what Hollywood does best--entertain!… Expand

But it's hard to feel worried about Ethan Hunt when he's basically Superman without the red cape. Remember when he was being mercilessly tortured psychologically and physically by Philip Seymour Hoffman in M:i:III, or when he looks terrified because a terrorist is in control of a nuclear missile in Ghost Protocol? That vulnerability is gone. Another notorious problem is the ending. It was too abrupt, since it didn't give proper closure to the characters and felt too small in comparison to the rest of the film. Perhaps I'm being too harsh, but after Mad Max: Fury Road and Cruise's Edge of Tomorrow, Rogue Nation does feel a bit underwhelming. Rebecca Ferguson is the main reason the movie is worth watching, I hope we get to see her in more films.… Expand

The action is exhilarating and Tom Cruise is as suave and deadly as ever despite being in his early 50s. In fact, the film even pokes fun at his physical shortcomings several times; for example, by pinning him against a physically taller, larger henchman. The other actors are all great in their roles too, can't really complain.

The one thing that stands out in this film though is the improved level of writing. It's not "Jason Bourne" level, but it is a lot better than the previous Mission Impossible films. I was genuinely pleased as the plot kept going in different directions and revealing things I didn't expect, but still somehow made sense.

The action is the highlight of the movie,"Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation" might be the best one out of this classic franchise, and it's definitely my 2nd favorite movie of the year so far. Needless to say, it was a fantastic experience. The action is the highlight of the movie, but the performances come close to that bar. At this point, there's no denying that Tom Cruise is one of my favorite action stars in Hollywood. He makes Ethan Hunt not only look like a total badass, but also a vulnerable man, and that's what I really like about him. The action, as I said, it's phenomenal and the set-pieces are visually striking, with the "underwater" scene being the most impressive element in the film. There was also a few character drama and comedy, but not with a confusing, clichéd romance. Some stuff about the female character just seemed off when it came to what side she was on. That's further answered in the second half of the movie, but I still feel they could have fleshed the character more. You can bring up that they didn't want to reveal the girl's true motivations because they wanted the viewers to keep guessing, but that literally has been done before in previous installments, so yeah, in my opinion, it's kind of clichéd. There are also some moments that are very dumb and not credible at all. Seriously, in the beginning, Ethan enters in the plane and the wind just throws him to the wall with impact and somehow he survives? And during that chase scene in Morocco, the car does a few flips and they survive? Hmm. Nonetheless, "Rogue Nation" surprised in how much spectacle the movie could have. The action is awesome, the acting is great, the direction is slick, the movie is so well-paced and the cinematography is dazzling, not to mention, that the script is smart. Honestly, I really liked this movie and even if it has some tiny flaws, it all gets weighed down by all those fronts.

Overall, the film series follow a film-making formula that, unlike the TV series, revolves around the boldness and non-realistic plans of its main character, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise).

Same thing happens here as with the previous films. Ethan Hunts saves the day again from a couple of unsaveable situations, except that this film is better than the previous three films, perhaps even the first film.

Who would think the film is great? Most people would love it.
Who would think the film is only so-so? The elderly may be a bit tired of the car chases, non-realism, etc.
Who would think the film is lousy? No one.

Score: 4/5 (no half score). Worth paying to watch it in the cinemas.… Expand
