The story in Rogue Nation is about Ethan Hunt and his team face their biggest and most dangerous threat yet (Would you believe it) The Syndicate, an international rogue group that are as skilled as they are deadly - and their number one goal is to eliminate the IMF.

Before I talk about Rogue Nation here is all my thoughts on the previous Mission Impossible movies. The first movie in my opinion was decent and a lot of hard work went into that film, I mean you look at the behind the scenes of the first movie people really worked they ass of on that movie and to me it paid off nicely. I give the first movie a strong 3/5 star's.

Mission Impossible 2 was pretty terrible to be honest. I felt like I was watching a different movie because to me I didn't feel like the first movie or even a Mission Impossible movie. I'm giving Mission Impossible 2 a 2/5 star's.

Mission Impossible 3 really got things back on track after the messy MI 2. Philip Seymour Hoffman was a great villain and JJ. Abrams did a good job directing the action scenes and the whole movie. I'm giving the third one a 3½ / 5 star's.

Mission Impossible - Ghost Protocol was pretty good. The actions scenes and the characters are the highlight of the movie. My only problem with the movie is that the villain was a bit weak and wasn't really that menacing. Overall I'm giving Ghost Protocol movie a solid 4/5 star's.

And now for Rogue Nation and it was a very enjoyable movie and I liked it a little more than Ghost Protocol.

I was a bit worried but at the same time interesting on what Christopher McQuarrie will bring to a franchise like this, because this is the same guy who directed Jack Reacher and I though that movie was okay but nothing special. Brad Bird was originally suppose to direct this movie but dropped out because he wanted to direct Tomorrowland and then Christopher McQuarrie stepped in. After seeing the movie I'm so happy to say that Christopher McQuarrie did a great job directing this movie as he added a lot to this movie when it comes to action and it's characters. McQuarrie really gave the actions scenes a feeling of rush and the action never got stale after wards like some action movies do after awhile. Nicely done Christopher McQuarrie.

It's crazy how Tom Cruise is 50 years old and he's doing all of his own stunts for his fans and keep it real and not over use CGI. He was great in this movie like in everyone movie Tom Cruise was in. You can tell by his face that he's in the zone when he dose these stunts that could kill him or hurt him really bad. Tom Cruise nailed the humor, he nailed the action scenes and he nailed the role.

Many people and myself had no idea who Rebecca Ferguson was before Rogue Nation. She was in last years Hercules with Dwayne Johnson that nobody remembered and I already forgotten that movie already. Rebecca Ferguson was so good in this movie that she is going places after this because of how good she was. In this movie she was like the female Liam Neeson from Taken because it's the whole "I'm going to kill you in one blow" kind of character. Rebecca and Cruise worked together perfectly and she nailed the role of a strong female character.

Simon Pegg was great in this movie playing Benji. It's surprising that not a lot of people give him credit in this movie as his known best at comedy but he's also a great action actor star as well, he proved that in Ghost protocol, Rogue Nation and Hot Fuzz.

The rest of the cast like: Ving Rhames, Jeremy Renner and Alec Baldwin all did great in this movie.

The one thing that the Mission Impossible movies doesn't do very well is it's villain. Philip Seymour Hoffman was the only good villain in Mission Impossible series but the rest of villains have been weak and pretty forgettable. But the villain in Rogue Nation has a lot of motivation and he's the kind of villain that you understand where is coming from. Sean Harris dose a great performance as this chilling character but it wasn't an incredible villain but still better than the one we got in the other movies.

Now for the problems: The movie itself isn't flawless as these some scenes in the movie that the pacing dragged a little bit and when the characters have conversations about the gadgets and stuff it wasn't that interesting as Ghost Protocol did it better, because Ghost Protocol was a straight up action movie filled with humor and entertaining characters and when they have conversations about gadgets it was interesting and creative.

Overall Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation isn't only just a good action movie it's a good movie on it's own. The movie took elements from the first movie and Ghost Protocol and puts it together in this movie which made it a very entertaining movie.… Expand

Sean Harris as the arch villain puts in a memorable performance, even if his character does conform to normal action movie stereotypes, and in fact the acting is stellar across the board, with particular credit to Tom Cruise for his spectacular dedication to the stunts. The sense of fun is paramount and the ability to not take itself too seriously is key to its success.… Expand

The IMF mightThe IMF outperform MI6's '00' section at their own game. Much like James Bond, Ethan hunt has to go rogue after his program gets shutdown because there's a powerful, sinister organization out there headed by a menacing villain. The IMF might not be able to hold a candle to the Kingsman, but Cruise makes sure to leave Craig in the dust.

It hits some familiar beats the spy movie genre is known for. This leads to a sense of predictability in it's twists, turns, and potential double-crosses. That's not to say it isn't exciting. Well-crafted action, breezy plot, likable cast, and appreciated sense of humor keep things entertaining. Now when I say humor I don't mean that this is part comedy like Kingsman: The Secret Service was. The movie does intend to make you laugh in a way to keep things light and say "hey, this is a fun spy movie."

And fun it is. "Rogue Nation" manages to avoid being overly serious while still having a solid plot with a sense of danger. The fun side of things complements everything well and the cast is incredibly strong and all sense of chemistry with one another that over films should rightfully envy. With one of the best chase scenes in years and Rebecca Ferguson bringing the sexiness that the latest Bond flick was sorely lacking, The latest Mission: Impossible proves to be another enjoyable spy flick despite not moving the genre forward. It delivers the moments of impossibility that it's title implies. That's enough for me.

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

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

There isn't anything really original in this Mission Impossible but it is wildly entertaining with well edited action scenes. As usual in all these films, Tom Cruise should of died 10 times over but that is what makes this series what it is.

Simon Pegg is also very good (and very funny) is a supporting role here, as is Jeremy Renner. Super stylish, the film truly does come to life in IMAX and look sleek and is beautifully shot. Above all, it is magnificently choreographed. The action sequences are masterfully put together and look beautiful to the eye. As a an overall film, Rogue Nation is alright. As I said, it certainly does not reinvent the spy genre and uses many of the tried and true cliches along the way. If it was not so wonderfully done, it would have been a lot less enjoyful due to this fact. However, as it stands, Mission: Impossible continues to be an impressively long lasting franchise in large part thanks to Tom Cruise's refusal to age.… Expand

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.

A slightly lesser effect than Ghost Protocol which had reinvigorated the franchise with superior action set pieces and introducing the best IMF team since the original where all members felt essential. It recycles plot points ripped from previous entries (e.g. Disavowed/dismantled team, another stunt where Hunt has to retrieve data from a maximum security vault). No action set piece quite matches the impressive Burj Khalifa stunt from Protocol (the trailer highlight of Hunt holding on to the plane for dear life as it takes off is a card played too early and nothing matches the spectacle of this for the rest of the film). Protocol is a better film simply because it utilizes the team more effectively. It had a good balance for making all members essential where as Rogue can feel at times like a solo Cruise action film with team members on the phone for moral support. Rogue attempts to increase the comic banter from Simon Pegg's Benji character and a lot of the film functions as a two man funny team (which is its biggest strength) however Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames get mostly sidelined which is disappointing. The film introduces a new female double agent played by Rebecca Ferguson working simultaneously with Hunt and the enemy but her double crosses are textbook 'Bond Girl' although Ferguson has potential in future entries if her character is more fleshed out rather than simply acting as a distraction for Hunt to chase and lose sight of the mission objectives at crucial moments. Rogue also has a weak villain (Sean Harris is usually terrifying and creepy in other roles; in Rogue he feels restrained) and forgettable final confrontation which isn't as memorable as the train sequence from the original film. Overall, this film displays an aging Cruise as a action star with plenty of gas left in the tank but the next film should hopefully contain a stronger more essential team that Hunt needs in the game at all times and not just in the backseat.… 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

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 reviews were overwhelmingly positive, so I was caught off guard when it turned out to be less than I had expected. The main problem with the film is that it sorely lacks any distinctive or memorable action sequence. The only one of any note (it involves a lot of water and very little oxygen) was interesting and unique, but it didn't last very long. As for the characters, I wish Cruise's compatriots had had more screentime. The best aspect of this film is the female lead, who really outshines Cruise in every scene. She has great screen presence.
Overall, I'd say I enjoyed this MI less than its predecessor. It's not a bad film, but I left the theater feeling pretty blase about it.… Expand

Ethan Hunt's fifth adventure is, truly, a mission every movie-goer should choose to accept.… Expand

yet somehow someway Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation manage to maintain it's fun and unique action scene with Tom Cruise still being bad-ass.

The script is okay it's not that great pretty linear and predictable but it's still fun movie even though main bad guy is kind a terrible , this is a movie that you should watch not only action movie fan but all of the movie fan.… 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.

P.S: In response to DavidWarden, I have seen both Ant-Man and Mission Impossible 5 and I thought Mission Impossible 5 was the better movie.… Expand

2015 could easily be dubbed the “Year of the Spy” with the subversive and entertaining ‘Kingsman’, hit Melissa McCarthy comedy ‘Spy’, the upcoming Guy Ritchie 60’s romp ‘The Man from U.N.C.L.E.’ and the 24th “Bond” ‘Spectre’ later in the2015 could easily be dubbed the “Year of the Spy” with the subversive and entertaining ‘Kingsman’, hit Melissa McCarthy comedy ‘Spy’, the upcoming Guy Ritchie 60’s romp ‘The Man from U.N.C.L.E.’ and the 24th “Bond” ‘Spectre’ later in the year, but with the 5th ‘Mission Impossible’ installment ‘Rogue Nation’ Tom Cruise reminds us he’s still in the fight.

By now we all know what to expect from a Mission Impossible movie and ‘Rogue Nation’ ticks all the boxes, a simple plot featuring an appropriately menacing villain, gadgets, double-agents and superbly executed action set-pieces throughout.

But aside from the impressive stunts performed largely by Mr. Cruise himself as we’re often reminded, it’s the comic sensibility and sense of adventure that makes ‘Rogue Nation’ entertaining, taking the audience to far-flung locales from Belarus to Washington DC, Vienna to Morocco and focusing much of the narrative in London.

Despite its entertainment value however ‘Rogue Nation‘s’ appeal is limited by the same factors that limit other ‘Mission Impossible’ films and spy sequels in general, after a strong start the story loses steam and starts to look like a blueprint for threading huge action set-pieces together.

There are only so many impressive stunts you can take and still maintain a high level of engagement and the predictably menacing villain with an unconvincing motivation doesn’t help, still despite its limitations ‘Rogue Nation’ is entertaining enough to hold your attention for over 2 hours and after 5 films in the franchise, star and producer Tom Cruise & Co. have fine-tuned the formula.

The Bottom Line…
Action-packed, adventurous and entertaining, ‘Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation’ can’t quite break the limitations of the genre but it’s a worthy summer blockbuster if you know what to expect when going in… and by now we all should.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ethan Hunt and team take on their most impossible mission yet, tracking down the Syndicate - a highly skilled international rogue organization, committed to destroying the IMF.

The fifth entry in a franchise that began almost twenty years ago, still starring now 53 year old Tom Cruise, the MI films have offered memorable action and ‘Rogue Nation’ doesn’t disappoint, but it feels like we’ve been here before.

Tom Cruise assembles his usual colleagues Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, and Ving Rhames to eliminate the threat posed by the Syndicate. With CIA director (Alec Baldwin) determined to shut down the IMF and newcomer Rebecca Ferguson as the agent whose allegiance is a mystery, there’s much to keep the audience engaged. Sean Harris as the main villain, however, isn’t up to much apart from wearing stylish spectacles and delivering a performance that’s not too far off Eddie Redmayne in Jupiter Ascending. Well, maybe not THAT bad, but not memorable either.

From the incredible opening plane stunt, a fight scene played out in the Vienna Opera House that outdoes Bond at his own game, to a frantic car/bike chase within the narrow streets of Morocco, these sequences had me holding my breath. Yet funnily enough the one scene that failed to impress as much was the underwater vault mission, with it’s CGI heavy visuals and poor execution/realisation, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

‘Jack Reacher' director Christopher McQuarrie doesn’t bring anything that sets it apart drastically from Brad Bird’s Ghost Protocol, with familiar beats like face masks, double agents, a weak villain and uh, ‘disavowed’. Yet i still enjoyed myself because thankfully it’s not a turn-your-brain off type effort. Tom Cruise’s energy and drive push this film. Pacing, tone and humour are all handled well, the performances and dialogue are decent enough. The action direction is excellent, no shakey cam or over editing. If you came for the stunts alone, you won’t leave unhappy. Despite all that, there’s a feeling that the producers might rest on their laurels after hitting a groove that began with MI4.… 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

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 teamThis action-spy franchise follows the trend of Fast and Furious, to be more specific in terms of its smart and thrilling screenplay that keeps improving from one installment to another. 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

The only drawbacks for the film was the film was a bit too long, and Jeremy Renner was barely in the movie. Overall, this was what I paid like $17 for. And a tip is too come extremely early for the showing cause my IMAX theater was full, and the one after that was full and the one after that was sold out. Also, I think the stunts were amazing and the action sequences were well-filmed. And the movie actually had some jokes that worked.… Expand

Where it stands in the series: first one was okay, second was awful, third was quite good, fourth was okay, this one is lame. Some idiot critic is claiming this better than Bond and Bourne. On the whole these movies are not nearly as good as the best Bonds but better made overall than the Bournes which in my book were very sloppy after the first one.
It has much of the signature style, clock ticking set pieces, trick identities, etc., but this time it's all so very, very tired! I've seen this movie before a hundred times! The plot is typically convoluted and silly. Jeremy Renner is useless and annoying. Alec Baldwin doesn't seem to know if he's in a serious movie or an SNL sketch. The audience seemed to be laughing at the movie not with it over some of the silly dialogue exchanges (Then again the audience partially applauded at the end, it was made up of at least half morons I'd say judging for some of the wasteoids sitting near me, probably professional critics looking to have a bright day and cut this dud a break. That's how they roll, it's all in the release timing, they were ready for a more serious non-superhero movie so they unjustifiably praise this no matter how lackluster it actually is. What stupid idiots! They should be all sued in class action for incompetent financial advisement.)
This whole Cruise did it for real stunt thing with the plane (makes no difference whatsoever in a pretend story, this isn't sports where the outcome is unknown, we know he was fine in real life), the underwater bit (that he actually held his breath for 6 minutes making that scene is such an absurdly preposterous account being told to the press and it's not even questioned as an outright lie is it? Michael Phelps couldn't do that on his best day.) Another is that he did all his own stunt driving, fine but then the scene goes so obviously CGI by the end that it calls the integrity of everything they are saying into question! The whole gimmick of his doing his own stunts to sell this movie is so passé nowadays. It meant something when Ford did it on "Raiders", but it just doesn't matter now. The problem was way back when you could see the stuntman actually in the frame, or you didn't show faces for that reason. Now with actors' faces digitally painted onto stuntmen or with outright digital doubles being used it's irrelevant.
I still think Tom Cruise is a great movie star and a very good actor. He should do more serious movies at this point and not this kind of big expensive junk just to stay popular and land box office. A trend amongst all older super stars and the other older ones are even more guilty of it.… Expand

InWe’ve all probably seen the preview where Tom Cruise is hanging off the side of a large airplane taking off. Well, the next morning after I saw this movie… that scene was about the only thing I could remember if someone asked me about it. In other words; it was just okay. I talked to my friends about this and we came to the conclusion we’re experiencing “Cruise-fatigue”. I can’t fault the guy for trying to keep the paychecks coming in, but Hollywood’s enthusiasm for Tom Cruise has resulted in choosing his name over movie quality/integrity.
Note to Hollywood: if you're writing any more Mission Impossible scripts, please leave Cruise out of it and let him start auditioning for grandpa roles.
Tom’s sidekick Jeremy Renner (of recent Bourne fame) is a bit of a fresher face in the cast, but his role in this sequel is much blander than the last one. As for positive points; there is a decent motorcycle chase scene, and the newest female face in this genre (Rebecca Ferguson) I thought was excellent. She is pretty but not in a way that makes it hard to believe she can also beat someone down. Hopefully this will open up opportunities for her because it would be fun to see her in more films.… Expand

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

I view this franchise as decent on the whole. There's a weird, escalating liveliness to each sequel that is surprising. Still, the mission is always revealed to be quite possible and, though the stakes are more and more considerable with each entry, there is no risk or tension simply because killing Ethan Hunt and his team is the real Impossible Mission. The stunt choreography in this one, though, sheesh, it's pretty crazy. Mad Max: Fury Road still takes the cake for me as the best display of action stuntwork I've seen this year (and maybe my whole life), but there are some memorable, delirious set pieces to bask upon here. The whole cast functions fine, though I think Renner and Baldwin have been given the most mundane material, disappointingly. New addition Ferguson is really cool. She's way too sexualized and is giving only fleeting backstory, but aside from that, she is easily the most nuanced and human thing about this movie. It's ludicrous, it's all staged, but dammit, I enjoyed myself. It's a winking (and often quite funny), adrenaline fueled action movie, filmed with taste and grace, performed as well as one of these blockbuster behemoths can be, and all-in-all is worth, at the very least, your attendance.… 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

In particular theMission Impossible: Rogue Nation Is a funny, action packed, and just in general good spy action flick. The film features terrific action sequences, made all the better by Tom Cruise's devotion to doing his own stunts. In particular the motorcycle chase is my favorite single action sequence of this year. 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

Tom Cruise once again proves that he is the best in the business. The film basically took every story element that made Ghost Protocol awesome and mixed them together creating the best movie of the summer.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not a bad movie, per se; but is very much in the summer blockbuster trope. Go in expecting cogent script writing and you'll find this movie is a 3, at best. However, go in expecting a silly fun time and you'll give it what I did, a 6+. There are many (too many) moments where everything just works out for Mr. Cruise and team, but it's not for lack of trying; one has to give Cruise an A for *trying* to still be an 80's action hero, despite his early onset age and height. Simon Pegg is really funny though and Alec, is well, Alec; which is to say always fun to watch.… Expand

The humor in the opening and various other places in the film was so out of place for this type of action movie, that it gave me a bad flashback to when the James Bond films jumped the shark with snide remarks and fancy gadgets instead of a tight, gritty, strong screenplay.

The plot was stupid and predictable. Definitely the worst of this series. The movie was too long and just when I thought it was about to wrap up, they started a fourth and fifth act.

The villain was good until he started speaking. He had this kind of higher pitched voice and he whispered all his lines. Very annoying.

Not trying to pick on Cruise, I really like the guy; but his overly boyish haircut in parts of the flick, made him look like a 53 year old trying to look like a 17 year old. Very disconcerting. Hard to imagine him as a master spy. I also believe that Tom Cruise needed to lose about 10-15 lbs. in order to make some of his action sequences more believable. All in all, a very big disappointment.… Expand

With all leading actors and actresses coming back to reprise their roles weWith possibly the best entry to date coming out for the MI series in 2011 (Ghost Protocol), we had plenty of reasons to be excited for a new Mission Impossible film. With all leading actors and actresses coming back to reprise their roles we had an idea of what we could expect. However, the film ultimately under delivers and creates something that is for the most part unmemorable.
The film begins with an epic and exciting piece of Tom Cruise trying to enter a moving plane which is both tense and funny to watch – especially knowing that Tom Cruise actually did the stunt. Albeit this, I couldn’t help but realise that this scene all of a sudden kind of made me feel a little more sceptical about the rest of the film, as if you had seen the adverts you would’ve known that this scene was one of the main selling points for the film and then, 2 minutes into the film they just throw it away. Great.
The film also continues with a one note bad guy who is completely unforgettable. To act his part of the bad guy he ranges from speaking almost inaudibly and with so little emotion that it was frustrating to watch him and then to make him show he is a scary guy if mad, he has a wonderful little eye twitch to make you really nervous. Obviously he has made a better villain than Hoffman’s portrayal in MI:3 (please detect sarcasm).
The story also has a sort of incoherence to it and disorderly fashion to it that makes it a bit bland but once all characters meet up it becomes quite fun, even though the ending to the film is pretty stupid and doesn’t really make any sense as to how it would’ve been possible to set up. There are also other scenes in the film that are outright **** as well, and I’m all up for a bit of non-realism every now and then but as for one scene in particular I just found it a bit too much. Having Tom Cruise fall of a motorcycle at breakneck speeds not wearing any leather s but instead a Hawaiian t shirt and come off completely unscathed (at the speed he was going out he should’ve been dead anyway) is just too much for me to handle. That **** is impossible (hohoho).
Now I have the negatives off my chest I can move onto the positives. The series has added more comedy into the films as they’ve gone along and they are a great addition, with the 5th entry adding some hilarious scenes into the mix. There are also a few pretty awesome set action pieces, 2 noticeably cool ones being a fight at an opera house and Tom Cruise’s underwater infiltration scene. That scene though, albeit tense, was slightly stupid as you can see that they are struggling for ideas for their typical heist/infiltration scenes and the method they were using to detect intruders there seemed a bit questionable.
Overall, if you want to see an action film Rogue Nation is a fair enough candidate to pick up and watch, but if you’re expecting it to live up to Ghost Protocol, don’t hold your breath: otherwise a woman will have to dive in after you a resuscitate you.

Mission Impossible 5 gave me none of that and as the movie went towards the last half I felt bored. Maybe my view would have been different if I had seen any of the other Mission Impossible films and thus already formed an attachment to these characters but as it stands I felt nothing for them.

My problem with Ethan Hunt's character is that he is too uber. Of course you know walking into the cinema that the good guys are going to win. A good action film should challenge that by adding vulnerabilities to the hero, make it seem like he's really fighting for his life. Mission Impossible 5 is the kind of film where the main character walks in, is awesome and you never really feel a sense of danger for him.

Benji is probably my favourite character of this film as he is the only one that now sticks in my head. He felt the most human which I can't say about anyone else.

Which is not to say the movie is bad, but I found nothing likable in it so gave it five stars as it falls squarely in the middle in that place between good and bad.… Expand

I'll start out by saying I'm not a fanboy of any single MI movie. I had heard many good things about this movie, but it really disappointed me. It's not as good as MI3, and it doesn't even come close to MI1. It's like a mishmash of the secondI'll start out by saying I'm not a fanboy of any single MI movie. I had heard many good things about this movie, but it really disappointed me. It's not as good as MI3, and it doesn't even come close to MI1. It's like a mishmash of the second and third MI movies, meaning it has a lot of action and almost no suspense.

First off, the plot is predictable. Right from the get-go, you realize Ilsa Faust is going to be a good guy, and most likely will end the movie fighting back-to-back with Ethan. Now, the movie does start out interestingly with Ethan hanging from a side door of an airplane, but that is probably the best scene of the movie. The movie goes downhill after that as fast as the airplane takes off. The plot is predictable and rehashes all spy movie clichés: a director who doesn't believe the IMF? Check. A strangely insipid car chase (this time down some sets of shallow stairs)? Check. A motorcycle chase with the protagonist crashing and miraculously surviving, even without burns? Check. Bad guys who can't hit a target five feet in front of them? Check. It's just too predictable, and sometimes even nonsensical. Of course a device is stored inside a water-cooler cyclone... thing. Why not?

The story also suffers from some bad pacing, and the soundtrack seems largely absent when it could probably do some good.

Not only that, but the action is also very bland. That probably mainly has to do with the uninteresting choreography and the fact that it never gains momentum, but also with the awkward camera angles: the close-up camera work reminds me too much of MI3; the scenes never get heart-poundingly tense, they just look overly stylized and don't actually give your eyes any room to put things into perspective. There is no sense of 'oomph', no impact at any point. The motorcycle chase feels like it was lifted straight from the second installment.

Even the 'heist' that is being called the Mission Impossible, is not impossible at all: there is never any sense that Hunt was ever in real trouble, and the heist seemed incredibly easy. There was never any scene as suspenseful as the one with the pressure and temperature change-sensitive vault from MI1. And that's the main problem: the movie has an overly long introduction, and when it finally tells us the Mission is about to begin, the mission ends up being very simple and reaches a conclusion far too long before the psychological pressure reaches a head.

The character of Ilsa Faust is not well fleshed out, and it soon becomes clear what exactly the idea behind Ilsa's character is, and it's yet another action movie cliché. This time around, the main characters don't even become romantically involved, nor are they even very friendly; there is just no substance there. There is just something missing; the dialog is uninteresting and full of exposition, and there is little fervor, no humanity. The main antagonist, Solomon Lane, is only barely intimidating, and only in one scene. The visual presence and connection to the main character is absent, so this role is very much inferior to MI3's Owen Davian, especially when he mainly intimidates Ilsa rather than a more important character. The movie's ending doesn't actually end anything, it just feels hollow.

In conclusion, Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation feels like a mishmash of MI2 and MI3, but instead of being a mixture of intrigue and infiltration with a smidgeon of action, it's full-blown action. The action is clear as day, sure, but it lacks a sense of awe and impact. There is really only one infiltration scene, and it lacks suspense and uncertainty. I think Brian De Palma needs to return and inject M:I with that classic stealth infiltration suspense and likable characters that the first movie was known for.… Expand

" Refrito Imposible"

Tom Cruise nos presenta su quinta entrega de su franquicia Misión Imposible, basada en la mítica serie de Martín Landau, Peter Graves y Leonard Nimoy entre otros, que narraban las aventuras de un grupo agentes secretos" Refrito Imposible"

Tom Cruise nos presenta su quinta entrega de su franquicia Misión Imposible, basada en la mítica serie de Martín Landau, Peter Graves y Leonard Nimoy entre otros, que narraban las aventuras de un grupo agentes secretos que hacian misiones de espionaje o sabotaje a países enemigos o grupos terroristas. Y que en 1996 Tom Cruise se apoderaría de ella, para su uso y autosatisfacción personal.

Esta franquicia, desde sus inicios, ha sido una especie de oda y lucimiento de palmito de Tom Cruise y su sueño húmedo de ser James Bond se hace realidad, aunque, la primera película, pese a ser muy vapuleada por la critica, es la mas fidedigna a la serie,es una película de espías clásica con sus pequeños desfases y flipadas de acción, pero en general, digna. Luego vino la segunda, donde la película se convierte en un grotesco y esperpentico film que parece digno de agarralo como puedas o de Luc Besson en horas bajísimas, provocando casí que la franquicia de Mision Imposible se quedase muerta. Ya en 2006 J.J Abrams, el mister lucecitas de Hollywood, el director de Marketing por antonomasia, consigue resucitar la franquicia, con su sobresaliente MI 3, porque se da cuenta, que esta franquicia tras el fiasco de la 2, solo puede ser, una comedía de acción donde vemos a un Tom Cruise decadente, haciendo sobradas y flipadas, planes enrevesadamente absurdos, secuencias de acción rocambolescamente exageradas con su James Bond de marca Hacendado, y es como la franquicia ha continuado hasta nuestros días. En otras palabras, esta franquicia no se toma en serio a si misma.

El FMI ha sido desmantelado, Ethan Hunt es un proscrito para los Estados Unidos y además lucha contra una organización criminal, El Sindicato, que desde la sombra conspira para desestabilizar el mundo.

El resultado de esta quinta película es un producto entretenidamente anodino, nada destacable, un refrito de las cuatro películas anteriores que ni sorprende ni genera tensión, simplemente es la nada absoluta, pero no implica a que roce a la infamía, simplemente es un blockbuster veraniego inofensivo del montón. Destaco simplemente como Simon Pegg, le da vidilla y humor a esta película con su actuación, que en ciertos momentos de la película, parece mas dos policías rebeldes o vaya par de polis, pero con Cruise y Pegg.

Ya dejo la tercera el listón muy alto en comedía de acción y la primera es una interesante película seria de espías, esta es una que pasa sin pena ni gloria, pese a sus delirios de Tom Cruise en hacer las escenas acción sin especialistas, los absurdos y enrevesados planes y las instalaciones mas ultravanzadas situadas en países del tercer mundo.

A court d'idées et au bout du rouleau, la série se perd ici dans des pirouettes scénaristiques de mauvais aloi et les raccourcis faciles... et impossibles.

Hormis un montage trop nerveux dans les combats, le film reste néanmoins assez bien réalisé et s'avère tout-à-fait spectaculaire avec moult poursuites et cascades. Le rythme sans être phénoménal parvient à se maintenir vaille que vaille malgré l'intrigue en roue libre. Le placement publicitaire est un poil exagéré (BMW et... Halo 5 ?) tandis que Crise nous ressert son numéro de petit prétentieux une fois de plus, entouré de son équipe de faire-valoir.

Bref, une sensation d'imposture et de réchauffé tiédasse nous étreint fort désagréablement et nous accueillons -nous ne le cachons pas- le générique de fin avec un certain soulagement.… Expand

Great plot, brilliantly outmaneuvered screenplay, perfect balance of intense espionage and thrilled-action entertainment, cleverly introducing of the new (charmful) character, and masterful storytelling. Lastly, watching Tom Cruise outdid stunt by himself properly is the cherry on top.… Expand

An amazing film, the first 2 acts are very action packed and awesome but by the time the 3rd act comes around (after the Morocco Chase) it slows down quite a bit.

Nearly as good as it's predessor and a franchise that is ageing like a fine wine. A well paced, thrilling ride.

Though dramatic, I believe Bourne gets it right; the suspense and drama completely engross me because the realism is there. Bond is also more my style, although being less realistic than the Bourne films. It's very different from Mission Impossible. Even though I know it's fiction, it still has the air of possibility (despite the name), making it more difficult to watch. Everything from the disguises to the escapes to the chases and the final sting is just too well-executed, coordinated, and implausible. My recommendation is to turn off your intellect, accept that this is a work of fiction and just enjoy it.… Expand

In my opinion this film is great, I think is funny that the synopsis is very similar to the synopsis of the previous film, but I prefer this one because is better in everything. I recommend it.
