Movie Info

This is not just another mission. The IMF is shut down when it's implicated in a global terrorist bombing plot. Ghost Protocol is initiated and Ethan Hunt and his rogue new team must go undercover to clear their organization's name. No help, no contact, off the grid. You have never seen a mission grittier and more intense than this. -- (C) Paramount

Finally an action movie that recaptures the fun and adventure of old.

Audience Reviews for Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol

I will not bother in a full review for this "film", I shall only said: Disappointing due to hollow screenplay, incomplete IMAX and primitive plot.

The IMF are framed for an explosion in the Kremlin and the entire organisation is disavowed, leaving Ethan Hunt and his team alone to expose a fanatic bent on nuclear Armageddon as the true culprit. I've never been the biggest fan of the Mission: Impossible franchise as a whole; the first was okay at the time but looked very dated in the wake of Jason Bourne's re-energisation of the action thriller, the second was typical of John Woo's daft excesses and the third took itself way too seriously to be fun. Ghost Protocol however manages to get the balance just right; the character dynamic works much better than in the previous films, with Simon Pegg's tech geek providing plenty of amusing banter without becoming a comic stooge and there is some quite spectacular stunt work. The plot is once again little more than a series of well engineered heists, but the characters are likeable, the pacing breathless and tense and it all slots together like a quality modern day James Bond film. A pleasant surprise.

    1. Benji Dunn: The science is sound, all right? I'd be more worried about the heat.
    2. William Brandt: And then there's that. What heat?
    3. Benji Dunn: [laughing] Well, it's like any computer, isn't it? If you switch off the fan, it's gonna get really hot.
    4. William Brandt: [laughing sarcastically] Of course.
    5. Benji Dunn: Relatively, you know.

    3. William Brandt: Yeah
    4. Benji Dunn: I don't... Why is that so hard to grasp?
    5. William Brandt: Well, yeah, why? It's a 25 foot drop. And we're using magnets.
    6. Benji Dunn: [grinning] Yeah.
