and here i thought i was the only person that thought the second one sucked so bad

i thought it was kinda funny that tom cruise breaks into the vatican, dresses up as a priest, and gets marriedby a hospital chaplain all in the same movie

and if you don't find that amusing...just watch out for his 2 inch lifts on his shoes in every scene

i thought this movie was alright, its more a movie to see for entertainment value than anything else.

b+.

it had an intriguing plot, but some of the "suprises" were a little predictable. the end was pretty lame, but the rest of the movie was fun. it had plenty of action, and some great spy technology stuff. however, some of the scenes were pretty laughable. not the technology bit, but some of the basic stuff. it's like, "yeah, right. no way no one wouldn't have noticed him scaling that wall in that manner next to a busy street in the middle of the city." that kind of stuff.

again, too much love shit. i guess that's the nature of the business now. no matter how much of an action movie a film is supposed to be, there'll be a nauseating amount of romance. i think it takes away from the film, but i understand why they're there. i don't mind romance in my "man movies", but i'd prefer it to be a "james bond" kind of romance - chauvenistic, superficial, charming, and raw. i don't need the 5 minutes of balking.

I enjoyed it
especially because it wasn't as confusing as watching MI:1 for the first time

^I concur...the ending was rather lame

hmm, seriously not trying to "talk shit" or anything, but considering this isn't a documentary or anything, what other reason, other than entertainment" would one possibly expect for this movie or any other

just saw it

THAT SHIT WAS THE MAD NOTE

i haven't bothered to read this thread

but i bet its full of haters who can't cut their shit off for a summer blockbuster

5/10/2006 1:29:14 AM

^you are correct sir, about a couple of things

movie was pretty damn entertaining

there are haters a plenty here

the worst of them are the ones who are hating and haven't even seen the shit. i could care less how fucking weird and retarded tom cruise is in his life...i'll still watch his movies if they look appealing

5/10/2006 2:21:41 AM

pretty good movie, but it visually felt like an episode of Alias. i hated the emphasis on closeups in the cinematography.

ps i know this is a dumb question but are p.s. hoffman and dustin hoffman related?

yeah

i was glad (for yet another reason) to have never started watching that show

5/14/2006 12:59:47 AM

alias > M:I 3 though

the formula works better as a tv show with many episodes and lots of character development rathen than just a two hour movie where you're forced to like or not like the characters in half an hour of meeting them

5/14/2006 1:28:01 AM

Movie was teh winz

I was really impressed about how he got into the vatican with the rope pulling the old outfit off like that. I know he would have been spotted by someone, but it was cool.

5/14/2006 10:42:37 AM

The movie sucks! Waste of money....

5/14/2006 11:14:06 AM

i liked the face of the girl after she got zapped by the implant

5/14/2006 12:11:52 PM

still need to see this

5/14/2006 12:23:12 PM

^^^not enough singing and dancing for you?

5/14/2006 1:35:20 PM

i found about half of it a great movie and the other half of it dull. good for a summer action flick and definatley worth a matinee purchase. a night purchase, meh.

5/14/2006 3:32:24 PM

^^lol..no...not really...I am not a big fan of singing and dancing either...

5/14/2006 7:53:17 PM

I thought it was pretty cool

it was a very entertaining movie but did someone mention a few cheesy parts? the whole thing is cheesy to me.

tom cruise is on the brink of death the whole movie. has about 1 million rounds shot at him and never even gets clipped. people at the factory (him and the girl run through with no cover and don’t get hit), fighter jet, soldiers in helicopter. you can shoot at him all you want but forget it. you'll never hit him.

all the shrapnel coming out of the factory landing on him doesn’t phase him

you can fire missiles at him and blow shit up right next to him but can never injure him. And hold the phone, DID TOM CRUISE REALLY JUST SHOOT DOWN A FIGHTER JET WITH A GUN? The same gun that didn’t phase the helicopter.

Then at the end of the scene the helicopter guys just watch him shoot at them? Oooo they want to keep him alive so he can get the rabbits foot? THEN WHY DID THEY SHOOT HELLFIRES AT HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE?

.put him tied down to a bed with 4 highly trained men in an elevator and he somehow kicks all their asses AND STILL HAS A LEG TIED DOWN. the men only attack him one at a time. two people never attack him at the same time in the movie but ok he beats them. YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THIS SPY AGENCY ONLY HAS ONE FORM OF COMMUNICATION AND IT CAN BE COMPRIMISED BY SIMPLY HOLDING THE BUTTON DOWN ON A WALKEY TALKEY

imf can do anything. they can never lose because they have a gadget for everything. they have every uniform ever made and know how to be any profession. if that fails they can always just become anybody because with a few picture they can print a mask of a person in 5 minutes that even the spouse of the person couldn’t tell the difference. (and with 2 more minutes they can have a voice mask)

he falls 40 meters and lands on the building then slides all the way down and hits the gutter hard...NO PROBLEM, HES READY TO TAKE ON NO DEFEAT THE CHINESE MILITARY! and go steal one of the most protected objects in the world in just 2 minutes.

he goes through a window in a high-rise office building (these windows are super thick. going through one would knock most people out) even after the fall onto the other building he’s fine. he’s ready to go chase the rabbits foot through a busy highway

(btw don’t even worry about cars hitting him. cars will always hit him but do so in a way that they can just go over him and only take out the bad guys or they stopped soon enough to only tap him)

This guy works at the same agency tom cruise works at but he is no match for nurse with handgun. Dead in a few seconds (I guess he was trained the same as the 4 guys in the elevator) no wonder the little blonde girl was ready to become an agent right after being told point and shoot.

ALL THIS SHOOTING JUST WENT ON AND A MAN EVEN GOT HIT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. NO AUTHORITIES. And how the hell does the same man that just stole the rabbits foot (with his faced exposed) walk out of the country. I guess imf and davian are the only people in the world with technology.

And the funniest part was when he puts the button on her arm “lol, what’s that?” (falls out)

i bet superman will be more realistic.

did you really waste your time thinking about and writing all that?

7/1/2006 7:11:52 PM

I almost made a topic about it.

7/1/2006 7:38:28 PM

how can some people question the plausibility of a mission impossible movie

thats like saying superman cant fly becuase of gravity
