    Mission Impossible Rogue Nation

    Awesome movie, lots of fun...Tom Cruise still has it. He did his usual own stunts...hanging on to the plane taking off was really him (he did perform this with a harness and digitally removed in post production)...but wow...that takes a ton of crazy guts nevertheless. The leading lady was also great as a British spy...her...and the setting in England...gave this Mission Impossible a very James Bond feel to it.

    There's also a few comedy bits as well...having a high powered action flick like this with some savvy humor...made this a very enjoyable and likeable movie...I think even some Tom Cruise haters would appreciate.

    Check it out...it's a blast...

    I just can't get past Cruise starring in it

    To me he's like Kryptonite

    Given the choice would rather watch a movie starring Pauly Shore, Andy Dick and Rosey O'Donnel

          I'd rather watch a snail poo than Pauley Shore, Andy Dick, and Rosey O'Donnel...then be tortured and kill slowly and painfully....and spend eternity in hell forever and ever...than watch those three talentless annoying and obnoxious hacks...



          Love or hate Tom a Cruise...the dude is in a lot of fun movies...I may question his personal antics, but on the silver screen...he's ace to me...

            Adam Sandler is my personal movie kryptonite, looks like he might be his own now too. Cruise I can take or leave, kinda meh.

              Cruise used to annoy me, but then after a while I acquired a taste for him. Now he's like a McDonald's cheeseburger... he hits the spot if enjoyed sparingly. The MI movies are usually pretty fun. I'll check this one out.

                  For me Cruise is more of Burger King onion rings --- I get painful heartburn just thinking of them

                    The funny thing is, his career has sort of shifted to include a LOT of SciFi movies now. Minority Report, War of the Wolrds, Oblivion, Edge of Tomorrow (Live Die Repeat). Like him or not, you can't deny he brings intensity to the screen.

                      I have never been a fan of Tom Cruise and normally avoid his movies like a plague. I did see the previous film and enjoyed it a great deal so I decided to give this one a chance. I thought this one was better plot wise and highly enjoyable.

                        I'm with you Hec. TC is always solid in every role, and he does bring a sense of urgency and intensity to the screen. He picks his films quite carefully and rarely is in anything bad. I wasn't sold on Oblivion, but his MI films are top-notch. Ghost Protocol was stellar and I definitely want to see this. He is as good as any actor of his generation, but that opinion is mine alone probably.
                        I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                        If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                          I used to avoid anything Cruise was in but he turned me into a fan in The Last Samurai and Collateral. I like/ love the Mission Impossible movies.

                            Don't forget Cruise in one of his earliest movies, Ridley Scott's Legend, with Mia Sara...I love that movie...Darkness, baby...
