Title: A Travesty Of A Film
Product review: As a diehard fan of the original television show Mission: Impossible, I was appalled by what Tom Cruise and John Woo have done to this once-honorable franchise. They took what was a subtle, creative, sophisticated package and turned it into a completely generic action movie. Mission: Impossible was about outwitting the enemy--in this travesty of a movie, any enemy who gets in Cruise's way is simply killed--Pathetic and generic. To top it all off, Cruise and Woo are obsessed with gunplay throughout the movie, something the producers and directors of the original television series INTENTIONALLY did not use. They wanted their characters to THINK their way out of situations--Woo and Cruise just shoot everything until somthing works. I had high hopes for the potential movie series after the first one came out, but I will NOT be seeing any others--I'll just go watch Face/Off again (A MUCH better John Woo movie....)
