Mission: Impossible II (Widescreen Edition)DVD

It should have been treated. Directed by John Woo, the man took the severity of the shootings. Screenwriter Robert Towne, who wrote half of the movies that made Jack Nicholson a star, and the protagonist is Thandie Newton, whose face could make a thousand ships do pretty much anything you want. But this "Mission: Impossible", the follow-up that boasted of hops from Australia to Spain and back, is not happy nor hip. It goes through the motions of a multinational action thriller, and although these movements are too blatantly one might expect, the result is more tiring than enjoyable. If the new film has a nucleus, is Tom Cruise, who reprises his role as team leader for spies. Sense of teamwork is, however, dropped out, and the plot, indeed, the whole movie comes a sad tribute to Cruise boldness, and in particular its physical indestructible. The first film was just amazing, this is useless.
