It's okay but it isn't as good as the first one. can't wait to see the third one.

Boom! Something gets blown up! Then a dramatic, slowed down shot of Tom Cruise, hair flying. . . Whap! Bang! Someone gets shot! Then a dramtic, slowed down shot of Tom Cruise and Thandie Newton, both with hair flying in the wind that shouldn't be there. . . I was expecting an intense action movie. It finally got there after about an hour and a half. The action itself was actually pretty good, but the rest of the movie left a lot to be desired. Most of it was just a sappy romance with lots and LOTS of slowed down shots, mainly of Tom Cruise, in a hairstyle that never should have been. We really only needed to see that hideous hair once, and even that was FAR too much. And some of the dialogue was almost painful to listen to. This film was not near as good as the first one, and seemed more a spotlight on Tom Cruise and his revolting hairstyle than anything else.

I've read a lot of bad reviews about this movie, and wasn't expecting too much in this movie. Admittedly, it was a lot better than I expected. Though definitely not as good as the first, this movie has a right to be called a Mission Impossible movie, it's filled with explosive action and death defying stunts. If you like Tom Cruise and like to watch him do all sorts of gravity defying action movies, then you won't want to miss this! The movie doesn't have all of the plot and intrigue of the first one, but it didn't put me to sleep. Now the stuff parents want to know. There is a lot of violence, some of it bloody, including people getting shot, beat up, and crashing in vehicles, like exploding planes and cars. Someone is infected with a virus and you see the affects of it. Tom is also slashed a few times with a knife. Language wise, it was a little less than the first. b*tch is used three times and bas*rd once. less bad words are used more often. Though one and three are better, this isn't a movie you should skip over. It's a lot of fun.

It is unbelievable. The first movie had Tom Cruise in it. This movie IS just Tom Cruise.

Mission Impossible was great - this sequel has sacrificed the ingenious (and admittadly hard to follow) storywriting of the first for silly overblown action sequences and equally preposterous dialogue. There is some action...and then long lulls with nothing happening - the villain is unconvincing and tom cruise who is a pretty average actor has not the solid supporting cast he ahd in the first and the inclusion of Jim Phelps is sorely missed. All in all this the movie which really starts putting you to sleep after the first hour or so. It saved from complete failure by some excellent action in the last half hour but is still very average.

ok not much of a try though even if you love the other one/ones.
