Blamed for a terrorist attack on the Kremlin, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and the entire IMF agency are disavowed by the U.S. government, while the president initiates the Ghost Protocol. Forced to go "off the grid" -- left without resources or backup -- Hunt must somehow clear the agency's name and prevent another attack. Complicating matters even more, Ethan must undertake the impossible mission with a group of fellow IMF fugitives whose actual motives are suspect.

Critics Consensus

Stylish, fast-paced, and loaded with gripping set pieces, the fourth Mission: Impossible is big-budget popcorn entertainment that really works.

Although it lacks some of its original slickness and more surprising twists, Ghost Protocol really breathes new life into the franchise.

Keith & the Movies

The action scenes are huge and sometimes jaw-dropping, and Bird’s visual style makes it easy to overlook the sheer unbelievability of some of the sequences. The Dubai skyscraper scene alone is worth the ticket price.

Rated: 4/5

Filme: Missão Impossível 4: Protocolo Fantasma @missionimpossible #missaoimpossivel Elenco: @tomcruise @vingrhames_fans @simonpegg @jeremyrenner @paulapattonofficial @leaseydouxfr Michael Nyqvist, Vladimir Mashkov, @anilskapoor Modelo: #ação #espionagem #spy #agentesecreto Duração: 2h 13m Ano: 2011 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. Para mim este é 2º melhor até hoje. Creio que aqui a franquia se renova um novo estilo que vem até hoje. Aqui é o 4º filme com o 4º diretor Brad Bird o menos conhecido, mas no meio dos desenhos é uma lenda, Ratatouille, Os Incrivéis, Gigante de Ferro,.... Aqui as cenas marcantes temos Cruise escalando o maior edifício do Mundo, Bud Khalifa e no ínicio quando fica pendurado do lado de fora de um avião militar. O filme tem o vilão Cobalt (Nyqvist) que ao estilo de Thanos quer gerar uma guerra nuclear e reiniciar um novo Mundo. E para isso ele tem as senhas para lançar misséis nucleares. Mas na vida de Ethan nada é fácil, depois que Kremilin foi explodido e com isso IMF é fechado e acusado de começar a guerra nuclear. E agora ele e sua equipe tem que salvar o Mundo. Jane, Benji, Thadeu, Brandt. Neste filme os efeitos especiais já são bem atuais e bem feitos. Roteiro e enredo como sempre cheio de ação. Diferente do 3º que veio com romance, drama. Aqui Tom corre muito. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 8,75

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Better than the next film and better than the original 2, but not as good as 3, 6 and 7. 8.5/10.
