Sure, but it's a Mission: Impossible movie. Like with a Bond movie, you have to judge it by how it plays with the formula. - Roger More Sep 4, 07:29 21
- there's formula and then there's The Hangover II and MI:4. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:33 11
  - I just gave two examples of where MI:4 differed from the formula established in the earlier movies. - Roger More Sep 4, 07:42 2
    - I'll give you that the team of MI:3 would have eaten the lunch of the team in MI:4. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:46 1
      - they wouldn't have bothered drinking their milkshake, they just would have thrown it in their faces and laughed. -- nm - Diva Sep 4, 07:48
  - Except that one was the worst movie of the year and the other was the best. - David Sep 4, 07:36 7
    - I didn't hate MI:4 - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:38 6
      - and not to nitpick but it's still a plot hole if you know it's a plot hole, admit it and try and talk your way out of it. - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:44 4
        
        I don't know what you are referencing. -- nm - David Sep 4, 07:46 3

        That's a plot hole? I think it's more a turn of events you didn't find believable. -- nm - David Sep 4, 07:56 1
        
        you know I'm right. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:57
      - and guys guys guys...Robot and Frank. See it. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:39
- they kinda lost me with the sandstorm climb building scene. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 4, 07:30 8
  - I literally lost interest with the rest of the movie after that. - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:34 2
    - yeah, I did not like MI 1 or MI 2, but MI 3 made me go "OOH!!!" and this one was a dud IMO. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 4, 07:35 1
      - I liked MI:3 a lot. -- nm - Diva Sep 4, 07:38
  - That's one of the better action sequences I've ever seen on film. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 4, 07:32 4
    - THIS -- nm - MDH Sep 4, 07:51
    - that was one of the first WTF scenes in either of the good MI movies - groiny Sep 4, 07:34 2
      - I loved it in the way that it was an impossible gadget that didn't seem impossible - Will Hunting Sep 4, 07:36 1
        
        ironically, I literally saw something on a defense blog after the movie that Darpa is working on something very similar. - Mel Profit Sep 4, 07:40
I liked the movie, but I agree that the bad guy was meh -- nm - Guigue Sep 4, 07:27 3
- I do not even remember the bad guy. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 4, 07:28 2
  - i just saw it last night and neither do I. -- nm - Diva Sep 4, 07:29
  - Blomkvist! -- nm - David Sep 4, 07:29
It was my favorite movie of 2011. -- nm - David Sep 4, 07:26 2
- It's one of my shortlisted favorites. -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 4, 07:28
- ugh. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 4, 07:26
