Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol by Magnum 4D

Very nice bunting by MAGNUM infront of the cinema @ Cathay Cineplex e@Curve

Wah FREE Movie + pop corn + drink & also plus some "ANG POW" to HUAT before the year end!

ok, let's talk about this movie which is my 2nd time to watch it! hahaha.. 1st time watching on IMAX & now normal type but still is excited, awesomeness, amazing & great movie which worth to watch it again & again.
I don't mind to watch it again seriously if anyone one of u want me to treat but Food *lunch/dinner* willl be on U! (^_^ )


Cast: Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton, Simon Pegg, Anil Kapoor

Direction: Brad Bird

Genre: Action/Thriller

Brad Bird makes sure you stay glued to the screen as IMF agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) chases his main target as he oscillates from one deadly stunt to another. Ethan juggles his chase mission with dodging the cops who are on his tail.

IMF agent Ethan Hunt is on his own after he is suspected of bombing the Kremlin thus furthering the rivalry between Russia and America. To clear his name and his organization's, Hunt along with his agents Benji (Simon Pegg), Jane (Paula Patton) and Brandt (Jeremy Renner) set off on a mission to find the real culprit and stop him from starting a nuclear war.

The film begins extremely well as the camera trails an agent who is hell-bent on protecting a file from his mysterious stalkers. As he takes the narrow bylanes of Budapest, you bite your nails in anxiety thinking what the repercussions could be.

Then follows the brilliant jail scene, where the IMF agents help Hunt breakout of a Russian prison.

We hear, Tom Cruise has pulled off most of the breathtaking stunts without a body double and if it's indeed true, we salute the actor's madness.

Speaking about action, your heart skips a beat when you see Tom Cruise dangling mid-air over the World's tallest building Burj Khalifa in Dubai. This is undoubtedly the film's highlight, the reason why you will want to see this film over and over again.

The actor does a Spiderman as he slides his way to the top, resting himself on the glass of the building vertically over the 124th floor from the outside! Cruise's reptile crawl gives you goose bumps. Apparently no special effects/ CGI were used. Reportedly, the actor hung on the building with the help of several safety wires. Whatever the truth, the scene is one of the best action scenes ever and deserves an IMAX viewing to feel the chill and challenge your Acrophobia (fear of heights).
Simon Pegg as the computer genius serves as a comic relief. We wish he'd crack us up a bit more with his witty one-liners. Jeremy Renner is unfortunately wasted. Paula Patton plays the archetypal femme fatale with conviction and innate sex appeal.

Tom Cruise as the indestructible Ethan Hunt is mighty impressive though we get to see absolutely no flirtatious side of him, sad news for the ladies. Cruise, who generally lets his eyes do the talking, lets his action speak louder this time around. The only moment when you get to see that trademark twinkle in his eye, the endearing Tom Cruise is towards the end.

Anil Kapoor plays an Indian Casanova who gets seduced by Jane. The actor lasts on screen for a few minutes but will get noticed for adding the 'Bollywood' presence in a Hollywood movie. He dances briefly too. Kapoor gets a silly role but is bound help him in the long run. Whatever little act he does, Anil Kapoor exudes confidence and finesse, no where standing out for the wrong reason.

The film is hugely shot in Russia, briefly in Dubai and Mumbai. The film is set in Mumbai for a good 20 minutes though not entirely shot in the capital of Maharashtra, India. Nevertheless, the 'sleek' portrayal of the city is relieving as opposed to the poverty stricken cliche in Hollywood films.

Ghost Protocol is full fledged actionfest. If you are a fan of the action genre, you won't pay attention to the few imperfections in the script which slows down the pace in the second half a bit.

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol is one brilliant film you shouldn't miss out on watching!
