...his life?
I walked into Mission Impossible 3 with dwindling expectations. The original was a fun piece of escapism, but hardly worthy of a sequel and much less a third in the already over tired action genre. Fortunately -and surprisingly- I enjoyed every single moment of it, and found myself smiling, crying and edging closer to the edge of my seat as the film hurtled towards its touching and exhilarating final act. Mission Impossible 3 is a proper ...

Mission: Impossible 3.
The movie star that guarantees global box office success has teamed up with the director who is now known to create small screen phenomena. Yes Thomas Cruise Mapother IV, aka Tom Cruise, has joined forces with Jeffrey Jacob Abrams, (better known as J.J. Abrams) creator of Alias and Lost, for the third installment of the multi-million dollar franchise. Question is, will Abrams make the transition from TV to movies or will ...

...screens as Ethan Hunt in Mission Impossible 2. At the beginning of May he returned for the 3rd instalment in the series, ten years after the original brought Hunt to our screen's the first time round. Cruise has also taken a step up to not only star in MI:3 but also take a producers credit for his latest all action adventure. I decided that as I had nothing to do this morning that I'd go and see if the third part is as enjoyable as the previous 2.

Advantages: clever action sequences Disadvantages: They had to blow up such a nice car.
...basically a continuation of a Mission Impossible saga, that originated from a television show. The first movie made was in 1996. It was called Mission Impossible and was directed by Brian De Palma, and the star of the show was Tom Cruise, playing the now famous supa' spy.. Ethan Hunt. With the help of the always great David Koepp, that movie was a delightful thriller/action movie that made good use of the fresh "man under the mask" idea. That movie ...

...the Caribbean and of course Mission Impossible III.
Fresh from a year of tabloid print, scientology and vomit inducing outbursts on Oprah, Tom returns to his cash cow to reprise the role of Ethan Hunt. For me the first Mission Impossible film was ok but a tad confusing. The second film was quite annoying and pretty dull with a crap villain. Surprisingly it's third time lucky as MI:3 is an enjoyable popcorn muncher.
In this one, Hunt has gotten ...

...sparkle to all of the Mission Impossible series.
On that note, Simon Pegg is in here! He plays a computer nerd at IMF, always a treat to have a Brit alongside the Hollywood greats.
The story revolves, loosely, around the disappearance of an agent Ethan Hunt has trained in his new role of spy teacher and her mission into Berlin. Shes taken hostage and Hunts team have to track her down and get her out. All very simple so far...it, invariably, ...

...is the best of the Mission Impossible films, proving that a sequel can be every bit as good as the original, and sometimes better than the films that predecess it. If they keep making the Missions like this, then I'll be happy to keep going to the cinema to see them.
Having purchased only the single disc edition of the film, I couldn't possibly comment on the quality of the 2 disc format. However, with a making of documentary, some commentary's, ...

...Impossible" reveal itself an impracticable mission during a period that involved several directors, script changes and enough time to Tom Cruise meet, engage and become father of a little baby girl with the actress Katie Holmes.
This adapted screenplay of the TV Series with the same name is probably the most interesting and spectacular. The three movies only have really in common Tom Cruise production and interpretation as Ethan Hunt, the actor ...

...in and lead the rescue mission of the trainee - Keri Russel.
Along with most of the other action scenes of the film, the rescue mission is an extremely over the top, unrealistic attempt. The practically passed out, tortured Keri Russel is brought back to super human strength with one injection of adrenaline turning him into action man.
When Ethan returns, believing his mission to be over, with Keri Russel safely obtained from the crooks in Berlin ...

The third installment in the mission impossible series promises to be action packed and the best MI movie yet....but does it deliver?
The film starts off introducing Ethans new fiance a pretty young nurse who is completely oblivious to Ethans real job.
Unlike the other 2 movies Ethan Hunt is now a teacher . He teaches other potential IMF agents. He is lured back into action when one of his pupils becomes captured.
He faces his worst enemy ...

Piggy1992
Advantages: Easy to store Disadvantages: Not enough extras
The film by J.J Abrams, creator of lost has made one of the most exciting films I have ever seen. The beggining shows a bit where a crazy man is holding a gun to Ethan Hunts' wife. Then we have a flash back of all the events that led to this. The key to the the film a nuclear weapon called the Monkey's Foot. After many action-packed scenes where we learn about the baddie. Ethan thinks his boss is helping the baddie, but we later learn it is the person ...
