"Mission Impossible 2" Comment

I feel that among the first three Mission Impossible, "Mission Impossible 2" is the smallest and freshest one. Unlike the other two large-length action dramas, "Mission Impossible 2" seems to prefer music and environment. To set off the psychology of the characters, Wu Yusen’s aesthetics of violence is also reflected in it (after reading this movie, I deliberately searched for the concept of aesthetics of violence, haha). The contrast between the white dove and the gunfire gives people a tension that is different from pure action movies. Exciting and different beauty. But there are many people who don’t like it very much, probably because Tom Cruise’s usual action movie image is not fully reflected in this show. Some people say that the whole show has no suspense, and the fight is not exciting. It has a romantic Hong Kong movie style. . Perhaps in the eyes of most people, there is a gap between it and other Mission Impossible series, but I personally still prefer this kind of spy war film with a little literary style.

Mission: Impossible II quotes

  • Mission Commander Swanbeck: [during a breifing in Sevile, Spain] Ms. Hall and Ambrose had a relationship which he took very seriously... she walked away and he's been wanting her back ever since. We believe she's our surest and quickest way of locating him.

    Ethan Hunt: And then what?

    Mission Commander Swanbeck: Make sure she continues to see him, gets him to confide in her, and report to you.

    Ethan Hunt: You made it sound as if I was recruiting her for her skills as a thief.

    Mission Commander Swanbeck: Well then I misled you, or you made the wrong assumption. Either way, we are asking her to resume her prior relationship - not do anything she hasn't already done... voluntarily, I might add.

    Ethan Hunt: No. She's got no training for this kind of thing.

    Mission Commander Swanbeck: What? To go to bed with a man and lie to him? She's a woman - she's got all the training she needs.

  • Sean Ambrose: [to Ethan] You know, that was the hardest part about having to portray you, grinning like an idiot every fifteen minutes.
