The MI formula is now so polished it is almost blinding. Near non-stop action, incredible stunts, hardly believable plots, and various shots of beauty.
Everything was spot on with Cruise providing the "face man" drama, Pegg the "humor relief", and the rest as bit players standing at the wayside. The exception to all this is Rebecca Ferguson who plays Ilsa Faust (irony in her name as you shall discern). She plays the mysterious young woman who saves then torments Hunt throughout the film. It seems she is a double agent playing for time against disloyal masters. (Ferguson has alluring yet modest English beauty despite being half Swedish.)
The range of stunts and their venues were thrilling on a more believable scale than the last film. You always wonder if that could happen in real life? (It does, I live it everyday.) One thing: Bad guys = Bad Marksmen.
One point: Is Hunt actually a patriotic priest?
Hold your chin up and pretend you are proud to see it. This is "our" summer movie and it will be worth it.
Follow Ups:
who had to leave before it began. Chastain is too flyweight to be kicking and flailing aboot believably with the heavy hitters. I think it worked for the best.
It was okay ...but so predictable.
The motorcycle chase was fantastic.
Other than that, I think its a formula that has grown tiresome.

It was always tiresome.
And Tom is too old for this shit.

...they are gearing up for an MI-6 for next year.
Look at the weekend box office - how could they NOT do another.

...you can do it without all the spoilers.Probably my favorite Mission Impossible so far.
Cruise at 53 years old still has it and doesn't look a day over 35 (I want to know who did his facework).
The Lalo Shifrin score keeps you on the edge of your seat when the action slows down.
And the ending reminded me most of the TV show.

Take a look at Hercules... a pile of ridiculous crap with Rebecca Ferguson in the middle.
Why did I watch it?
Don't ask... :(
