Re: Rate the last movie you saw

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol

[Although the Flixster app lists it as "Mission Improvable"]


Great stuff. Great action, great gadgets. I'd like one of those iPad powered projector wall things.

7ish out of 10. Not sure if I prefer this or the third, but they're definitely both better than 1 & 2 IMO.

Some thoughts:

Spoiler: 
1) What about those poor prison guards, eh? Just doing their jobs, and then a riot is staged to free Ethan and they get the crap kicked out of them, possibly even killed.

2) Was there a point to the explosive at the start, other than to provide a fuse for the opening credits? Nice credits, though... although they made me think "BOND RIP OFF!".

3) Why the hell did the Russian security forces shoot the crap out of the car with Ethan and the "Secretary"?! They just killed a high-ranking member of the US Government! A little OTT surely, when trying to catch an escaped prisoner / suspected terrorist... Would have been better if it had been bad guys working for "Cobalt".
