Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011) starring Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Paula Patton. Super-agent Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and the IMF crew set off in pursuit of some stolen Russian nuclear codes. The action is almost non-stop from beginning to end, especially during the first two-thirds of the film. During the last third the movie begins to feel a little too long, but it all works out in the end, and I suspect theater-goers left feeling they had got their money's worth. I felt that there was no real suspense -- we know that Hunt is not going to be killed, and we know that no nuclear warheads will be detonated. But in this case it's the journey, not the destination, that provides the entertainment. (Subtitles in English are offered, and also closed captions.) Grade: B+
