Mission Impossible 1-8 Review

The film expands on the original's action scope, with Woo's signature style and a memorable motorcycle chase sequence. However, the plot suffers from a relatively weak villain and a forced romance between Ethan and Nyah (Thandie Newton). Despite these criticisms, the film's action sequences and Cruise's stunts remain impressive. J.J. Abrams takes the helm for the third installment, which sees Ethan Hunt facing off against Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a ruthless arms dealer. The IMF team, now consisting of Lindsey Farris (Keri Russell) and Billy Crenshaw (Billy Crudup), must stop Davian from obtaining a powerful piece of technology.
