"The Last Wonder"

Woo Yusen's work in this film is not very exciting. From the beginning, I felt that the rhythm of the whole film was strange. The black heroine in the movie is not pretty and feels that Tom Cruise has been enduring the pain of kissing her. The dull atmosphere in the movie was not completely broken until the final stage. As soon as the pigeon appeared, I didn't know that this movie was directed by John Woo. The boss of Tom Cruise in the movie is the old Mr. Hannibal we are familiar with, and his signature smile is still so ecstatic. The motorcycle chase and the hand-to-hand combat on the beach were very exciting. John Woo let Cruise put all his legs to work, and the heel strike after the flip was really powerful. Cruise's rock climbing at the beginning of the movie is really dizzying, and the scene is impressive. If I were climbing a cliff like that, I would have jumped off the temptation of death long ago...

Dr. Nekhorvich: [from a video recording presented by Swanbeck with Ethan watching] Every search for a hero must begin with something that every hero requires: A villain.

Mission Commander Swanbeck: [seeing and hearing his briefing through sunglasses and it's earpieces] Good morning, Mr. Hunt. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, involves the recovery of a stolen item designated "Chimera." You may select any two team members, but it is essential that the third member of your team be Nyah Nordoff-Hall. She is a civilian, and a highly capable professional thief. You have forty-eight hours to recruit Miss Hall and meet me in Seville to receive your assignment. As always, should any member of your team be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow all knowledge of your actions. And Mr. Hunt, the next time you go on holiday, please be good enough to let us know where you're going. This message will self-destruct in five seconds.
Ethan Hunt: [5 seconds before he throws the sunglasses in front of him] I let you know where I'm going, I won't be on holiday.
