Move over Ghost Protocol Mission Impossible 5 is the best one yet

So as you can see I went to watch Mission Impossible 5 or Rougue Nation, and I have to say wow! What an entry we have here to the Mission Impossible franchise, the stunts were amazing it makes you wonder how Tom Cruise is still alive after doing this stunts, since he doesn’t use a stunt double he does all the stunts himself. 

The film stars Tom Cruise, Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner and Alec Baldwin and for all you people who wanna know the run time it was 135 minutes (two and a half hours) long so it isn’t at all long at all, oh and it’s directed by Christopher Mcquarrie (he directed Jack Reacher) unfortunately I can’t tell you the plot because there are a hell of a load of spoilers normally I would spill the beans but so much goes on in this film that I would not like to reveal, so let’s dive in.

Okay I can say about the stunts in the film and I wanna draw your attention to the first stunt at the opener of the film where Ethan Hunt appears and jumps on to a Russian cargo plane carrying neurotoxins called nerve gas, he hangs on to the door asking fellow field agent Benji to open the door suddenly the plane takes off with Tom Cruise hanging on to the door, now that stunt was impressive I loved the way it was shot (the cinematographer has done an amazing job) I mean the whole film as a whole was shot perfectly, oh and that soundtrack though, there’s a part in the film which takes place at a showing of Turandot (a famous Italian opera) a fight breaks out all to the tune of Nessun Dorma, now that was really effective I mean I had shivers down my spine, my heart was racing, I’m not saying no more because I don’t want to ruin the story. 

Now let’s talk about the cast, now I said this last time I watched a Mission Impossible film and that is “my god Tom Cruise has surpassed himself with the stunts this time round” and boy does he I mean for a 50 year old guy (yeah I couldn’t believe it either when I heard) he can do some impressive stunts, then there’s Simon Pegg as Benji now just like Ghost Protocol Pegg is absolutely hilarious in this film I mean he is my favourite character in the film, he does have some amazing lines in this, also returning is Jeremy Renner as analyst William Brandt, now I like Jeremey Renner but Christ on a bike I can’t stand his character, I mean whenever Ethan came up with a plan he always popped up saying NO!!! We cannot do that, now look I understand he is trying to do what’s best but my god Ethan has been doing this since the 90s you’ve come along in Ghost Protocol, any who he wasn’t the only character who I didn’t like, Rebecca Ferguson’s character is irritating as hell I mean one second she’s good next she’s a villain, then you’ve got Alec Baldwin as Hunley a guy trying to stop the team from doing their missions, so with that said the cast is pretty impressive I mean really impressive they have all done good jobs. 

So my final opinion on this film well overall it’s very impressive the stunts as I have said before are really awesome, I will give this film a solid 10/10 mainly because of the action and the stunts Oh and the storyline it’s not to complicated and not to confusing to understand any way I hope you enjoyed my review of Rougue Nation and as always catch ya later
