Title: Good Action Film
Product review: Action fans will not be disappointed by MI2. John Woo, director of the John Travolta/Nichols Cage film Face/Off, has done some visually stunning action scenes in MI2. The plot is simple, but action is the keynote of this movie. The only problem with the film is Tom Cruise - he is just not an action star. Note for film buffs: the plot of this film is a techno update of Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious. Tom Cruise & Thandie Newton take on the roles played by Cary Grant & Ingrid Bergman, while Dougray Scott does the Claude Rains part. Scott's relationship with his head bodyguard is similar to James Mason & Martin Landau in North By Northwest. And the producers claim MI2 is an original screenplay!
