Summary: Unusually dissapointing
Review: Although a usual fan of both Cruise and Woo I found myself fighting the urge to leave midway through the movie. As incredible as Woo may be in his gravity defying stunts (half the stunts could win the high jump in the Olympics), this movie was just a bit much. I loved Face Off, but MI2 has absolutely no redeeming qualities. Boring plot, bad dialog, no charismatic acting, a general bore.

Summary: It's just an action movie
Review: People need to calm down and look at this movie as it really is...an action movie. Of course the stunts aren't realistic and the love story is pretty cheesy, but that's the magic of movies. The movie supplies wonderful eye candy and you can't help but love or hate the characters. Get this movie and sit back, relax and soak in the magic of John Woo.

Summary: Not perfect, but still entertaining.
Review: This movie is definately different from the first. This movie has a lot of hard-core John Woo action at the expense of the stelth spy games and gadgets, which is what Mission Impossible is really about. The movie starts off very slow and then supercharges for the climax. Some of the action is so over-the-top it gets ridiculous. Normally director John Woo is good at this, but enough with the pigeons all ready! Some shots are devoted to just pigeons, an attempt to be over symbolic. Still, John Woo fans will once again like his style here.Basically if you like John Woo films, watch this, but don't expect it to be true "Mission Impossible." If you own a DVD player, this DVD has a good ammount of features and it would show off your home audio. Reccomended for John Woo fans.

Summary: Should have done a video clip instead
Review: This movie is ridiculous. I went to see it because of the good reviews it had when it opened in theatres, and because of the theatrical trailer I had seen. But that was it. This would have been a good piece of work for a five minutes video-clip, with the music, Tom Cruise's hair blowing in the wind while flying with his motorcycle, and the excellent cinematography and slow motion sequences. But a movie based on that? Come on. It is a shame, because I was begining to respect Tom Cruise's career as an actor, with some great films he made.

Summary: The worst part is THE STORY!
Review: Hi, Everyone!
Personally, I think the problem mostly made MI2 not to be a SUPER movie is the story. The entire movie is no long like a spy movie as Mission Impossible 1. It has became an ACTION movie at all. And it's too simple to be a Big Hollywood movie.
Tom Cruise still gave his best to MI2 as the past movies he led. In MI2, he did a lot dangerous action by hiself. That happened because (I think) he knew the story couldn't capture the attention of audiences.
John Woo....I'm from Hong Kong and have been seeing lot of his movies whatever he created in Hong Kong or Hollywood. Yes, some of the action looks similar to those in his past movies, but He is still the MAN who create action sequences that lot of Hollywood top action directors couldn't create. For those American audiences, I hope you understand it's not easy for a Chiinese director as John to direct a millions-dollars-production movie in United States. But I'm happy to see American people found greatness from Hong Kong that's just a place as little as a tiny dot in World Atlas.
Anyway, I would say MI2 is a Good movie.

Summary: Why can't we select 0 stars?
Review: If this movie sucked any worse we would all be in trouble because the low pressure caused by such suckiness would create a black hole destroying all life on this planet. Matter of fact if it destroyed all copies of this movie it might be worth it if the planet was swallowed whole by a quantum singularity.

Summary: I was dissapointed. Cruise and Woo could've done better...
Review: This film let me down tremendously. Tom Cruise just mopes around and stares. After his brilliant turn in "Magnolia", I expected so much better of him. I also expected better from John Woo. Man, this movie really dissapointed me. I could forgive the incoherent plot if the actors would've shown a little bit of enthusiasm and excitement for the project they were working on. Even the action sequences were a dissapointment. Just by-the-books stuff. Nothing new. Nothing spectacular. I highly do not reccommend this. Even if you are an avid action fan, this is a real letdown....

Summary: What a waste of talent!
Review: Obviously it is now more important to have a big star than a big story to make a succesful blockbuster movie. I wasn't impressed by the first Mission Impossible movie but was hoping that John Woo would be able to bring some of his inspiration and originality to that movie. The result is an extremely predictable movie which spectacular stunts, hardly believable, do not help to render even the slightest interesting. At least movies like The Matrix have a plot (.) which justifies such stunts. Seeing Tom Cruise drive a bike on its front wheel with one hand and looking in his mirrors to shoot bad guys behind his back with the other is more than I can take. If he was a product that you can actually purchase (!) then this would only just be a commercial for it. It is way too obvious how big a grip he had on the script and how much it limited Woo's ability to make a good movie. No "Carte Blanche" here, Hollywood's rules have to be respected. Even the killer Soundtrack which helped raise my expectations doesn't make up for a scenario which is hardly worth one episode of the series (which I do not even compare to the movie). All in all ... I would and will give it a miss!
