David Hunter Hollywood Reporter Newton is just about the best thing about M:I-2, playing a thinly written and cryptically motivated character with such charisma that one hangs on every lifting eyebrow and seductive smile. Jun 15, 2020 Full Review David Ansen Newsweek "M:I-2," as the new Mission: Impossible is tagged, is a slick, expensive, bullet-ridden thriller that is oddly dull -- the last thing you'd expect. Mar 6, 2018 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Good thrill ride of a movie for teens and older. Rated: 4/5 Dec 26, 2010 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Nothing about the movie works, and even less is worth remembering. Rated: 0.5/4 Mar 6, 2023 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Despite the obnoxiously overdramatic nature of several sequences, there are still a number of amusing moments of action and a modestly competent emotional interaction or two. Rated: 4/10 Aug 29, 2022 Full Review Tony Black Cultural Conversation A film that remains eternally fascinating, particularly as the demonstrable nadir of, otherwise, one of cinema's most consistently entertaining blockbuster franchises. Rated: 2/5 Feb 15, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Brian N I have no idea why this is rated so low. I think that it is the best MI. LOVE IT! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review Audience Member A weak first half followed by a strong finish. 5.5/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/12/24 Full Review Idan Charles L This was so weak compared to the original, This movie is just too stupid and mediocre. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/08/24 Full Review Carlos T Filme: Missão Impossível 2 @missionimpossible #missaoimpossivel Assistido: Elenco: @tomcruise @vingrhames_fans @thandiwenewton Dougray Scott, @richardroxburghtofficial Brendan Gleeson Modelo: #ação #espionagem #spy #agentesecreto Duração: 2h Ano: 2000 Minha opinião: Com certeza uma das séries de filmes mais antigas e que perpetua até os dias de hoje. E irá fazer com o lançamendo 2025 34 anos com 8 filmes e todos interpretado por Tom Cruise. MI 1 (1996), MI 2 (2000), MI 3 (2006), MI 4 (2011), MI 5 (2015), MI 6 (2018), MI 7 (2023)e MI 8 (2025).Com faturamento de mais de 4 Bilhões de dólares. Aqui esta o 2º filme da franquia tendo como MI girl Nyah (Thandiwe), por quem Ethan (Tom) se apaixona. Curioso que no 1º era uma relação mal acabada, 2º um amor profundo, no 3º ele esta casado. Aqui temos o diretor chinês John Woo, e como conheço seu estilo, digamos que temos um filme cheio drama, tiros e ação. Um filme que toma nossa atenção já na abertura onde ele faz uma escalada somente com sua mãos, lembrando um filme de Stallone. E na parte final onde com a lamina da faca fica milímetros de seu olho ocular. Mas a parte que mais toca é o relacionamento de Ethan e Nyah que para protege-lo injeta em si mesmo o vírus que todos estão atrás. Mesmo que isso leve a morte, mas que ela confia que Ethan conseguirá o antidoto. Além do vilão Sean (Dougray) um ex agente que virou a casaca e que quer vender o vírus. Para mim este é o filme da maior paixão Ethan. Roteiro e enredo diferente do 1º um roteiro mais simples. E o triangulo amoroso bem feito. E aqui são filmagens raiz. Ao estilo de Woo. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 8 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/19/24 Full Review Zackary T Robert Towne really dropped the ball on this one. He should have Alan Smitheed it or maybe he didn't have help from his uncredited wing man ( See ' The Big Goodbye ' book ) Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/28/24 Full Review Sebastian L Despite being newer than its predecessor, M:I-2 has aged much worse. It's a visual joyride that's sadly plagued by trends and gimmicks of the early 2000s, and Woo (Hoo) goes all in on slow motion and cares very little about what makes sense. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
