Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol Movie review







We last saw Impossible Mission Forces agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) all but walking into the sunset with new wife Julia (Michelle Monaghan). Now? He’s locked up in a Russian prison and she’s nowhere to be found. Well the movie start like this.


I won’t get into the story too much as I don’t want to ruin it for anyone, but the basic plot is that the Kremlin in Russia is bombed by a terrorist group and IMF is framed for it. Because of these actions, the president decides to activate Operation Ghost Protocol, which essentially means that the entire IMF organization is disavowed, meaning Ethan and his team are on their own.


The performances were generally good all around. Simon Pegg was enjoyable as Benji and Tom Cruise is always great as Ethan Hunt. Jeremy Renner and Paula Patton also gave some great performances. There’s also a great cameo by Slum Dog Millionaire’s Anil Kapoor. His character is onscreen for a few minutes, but Kapoor brings it with the limited time he has.




The action sequences are where the film really shines. When a good animation specialist (Brad Bird) directs an live action film, the outcome would most likely be positive. From a prison break to Moscow Kremlin, then from the Burj Khalifa and car chase in a Dubai sand storm to India. Hats off and congratulations because Mission Impossible 4 Ghost Protocol is not only the best instalment of the film franchise, but also Tom Cruise's best action flick ever.


It's also quite fast paced for an over 2 hour film as well. I regret for not watching this at an IMAX cinema. After watching Mission Impossible 4, I believe Apple products will save us from nuclear destruction. Especially the iPad.


Favourite scene: Definitely the Burj Khalifa scene. Top notch cinematography and thrilling action.





With a screen time of 132 minutes, “Ghost Protocol” is a bit long, and it doesn't lose its momentum till end.  Its an 'Impossible' Mission Full Of Fun And Wonder. Its worth seeing again. I gave 11 over 10 stars :P
