Review: After the "rebirth" of the franchise directed in 2011 by Pixar's Brad Bird (Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol), it was not an easy job to deliver an interesting new episode and what we end up with is a movie that combines all the elements that make it a good Mission: Impossible story, but that lacks the little something to make it remarkable. It re-uses the good character development from the previous movie and the simplicity of its staging, while at the same time confronting its characters (Hunt in particular) with truly impossible missions that only he can accomplish and outlive. I liked that the big stunt shown in the trailer is not the highlight of the movie but its beginning, it leaves more room for surprise. Renner, Pegg and Rhames are OK, an the new Rebecca Ferguson brings an interesting element to the story. As I wrote: all the ingredients for a good Mission: Impossible movie.
Rating: 6 /10
