Wendy Ide Times (UK) Indistinguishable but for one vital element: Philip Seymour Hoffman. Sep 12, 2022 Full Review David Ansen Newsweek ...this snappy installment is a marked improvement over John Woo's surprisingly dull sequel, though the set pieces lack the elegance and visual coherence of the Brian de Palma original. Nov 1, 2007 Full Review Ben Walters Time Out There are plentiful perilous countdowns, most of the set-pieces are impressively mounted and, in its own silly way, the pay-off offers a glancing blow at US foreign policy. Relatable? No. But quite fun. Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review What I admire about and why I enjoy returning to Abrams’ sequel is the momentum and emotional immediacy of the plot. Rated: 3.5/4 Mar 6, 2023 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Regardless of the minutes eaten up by littler details (and the illogicality of the geography jumps and the convenient gadgets), the focus on nonstop action and suspense is exceptional. Rated: 8/10 Aug 29, 2022 Full Review Sergio Benítez Espinof 'Mission: Impossible III' is a 100% J.J. Abrams film with all the (very) positive and the (little) negative that this implies, of course.

Fabrícia F Brilhante, original e com uma pitada de romance para melhorar tudo nessa franquia perfeita. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/25/24 Full Review Sebastian L A definite recovery from Woo's misfire, M:I-3 is a masterclass in pacing. It's fast moving but knows exactly when the audience needs to catch its breath and let things sink in. There might be some odd choices here and there, but Adams never lets the ride loose traction. Hunt becomes a real character in this one too. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/23/24 Full Review Adam R Writing this in 2024, after 18 years this movie is still great to watch. Its a kind of movie where you can watch again and again Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/02/24 Full Review Nicholas V MISSION IMPOSSIBLE MARATHON: 3rd one in line would obviously be this one! After seeing this one made my heart skip a beat, the disguising is on game, Tom Cruise kills it again. The entire team made another great one!! Go Team Cruise!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/22/24 Full Review Vittorio D One of the best MI movies, if not the best. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/24 Full Review David C Las acciones son buenas Tom Cruise si que hace escenas arriesgadas no es lo máximo la historia pero si está mejor las 2 anteriores Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/25/24 Full Review Read all reviews
