Better than the solid background of spy war action movies, the main flaw lies in the main storyline

I personally summarize the five major characteristics of the "Mission Impossible" series: First, the classic signature soundtrack is well-known in the uncontrolled piracy of various programs in our country. The second is the constant Tom Cruise. The third is to follow the characters in the film to travel around the world. The fourth is a dazzling spy weapon, and a series of unforgettable shots and tension scenes from this, such as the hoisting rope to the gravity sensor room in the first episode, the helicopter battle in the tunnel, and various human faces. mask. The fifth is the fast-paced spy warfare that the soldiers never tire of deceit. There is me in the enemy and the enemy in me. No one knows the true colors of the people around me.

Then let's take a look at how these five points are done in the fourth game of this series. The soundtrack is naturally the most stable, so there is no need to repeat it.

Although Tom has experienced a lot of vicissitudes, he does not lose his prestige. At the age of 50, he personally performed his sword on the outer wall of the world's tallest building, Burj Khalifa. A few supporting roles, Simon Peggy's gag is quite satisfactory and can be considered qualified; Jeremy Renai’s baggage is too clichéd, and it took me a long time to remember that this is the actor of "The Hurt Locker"; the female number one has no bright spots. The blonde female killer, Léa Seydoux, who was totally different from her rival, was electrocuted. That rich Indian is the host of a quiz show in "Slumdog Millionaire."

This work takes you to Budapest, Moscow, Dubai, and Mumbai. I am honored to have been to 2 of these places, and I am quite intimacy. Tom has made a big advertisement for climbing the Burj Khalifa. The victories of Moscow's Red Square are paired with the majestic Russian military anthem, and those few shots have definitely reached the level of scenic films.

The dazzling spy weapon is also creative, especially the screen in the Kremlin is the most impressive. The iconic human skin mask was also exposed, but it was not very useful. I personally think that the "Mission Impossible" series is far better than 007 in terms of the creativity of the technology gimmick. Hollywood has always been unambiguous when it comes to making scenes, and this game bombed the Kremlin without mercy. Personally, I feel that the White House is still the most popular building in Hollywood, followed by the Eiffel Tower. As of now, there are no movies that dare to make a joke on the heavens. I have to say that although the director is a Disney animation background, the rhythm of the film is still very well grasped. Every effort has been lost at the critical moment, and then the next step is quickly transferred to the next step, until the almost irretrievable critical juncture is completed. That impossible task. The only regret in this regard is that after countless small climaxes, the final big climax is not strong enough.

As for the fact that the soldiers are not tired of fraud, it is obviously not on the same level as the first one. I have been guessing from beginning to end which of Tom Cruise’s side is the enemy’s undercover. Unfortunately, none of them are, and the drama burden on them is pretty good. Cookie cutter. Despite the climax of the action scenes, the main storyline is very uncreative, with no waves or twists, and the material is actually the old Russian nuclear bomb. This makes me quite disappointed.

The film is three-and-a-half stars, better than a solid spy action film foundation, the main flaw lies in the main storyline.
