Although it lacks some of its original slickness and more surprising twists, Ghost Protocol really breathes new life into the franchise.

Tilt Magazine
People will go and watch the newest edition of Mission: Impossible, partly out of nothing better to do and partly because it boasts cast members they like or promises spectacular sequences. Films like this do not leave a lasting impression.

The prolonged fight scenes, car demolitions, and long-distance jumping stretch the boundaries of believability.

Cruise is back. This time, he actually has a ghost of a chance.

I walked in expecting over the top action, death-defying set pieces, preposterous plot twists, and really cool gadgets. I’m happy to report that I was not disappointed.
