Dazzling stunts and thrill-a-minute action highlight this exhilarating fifth chapter in the popular film franchise. When the Impossible Missions Force is disbanded by the government, veteran agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is joined by mysterious MI6 operative Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson) as he tries to bring down the Syndicate, a shadowy and sinister espionage agency every bit as dangerous as the IMF. With Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner, Alec Baldwin, and Ving Rhames. 131 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set.

Ethan Hunt
Why doesn't a genius like Hunt hyperventilate pure oxygen for like half hour before doing the dive? it would extend his function dramatically under water.

Mission Impossible Rogue Nation
This is the most exciting movie in the Mission Impossible Series. You can't take your eyes off the screen for a second because you will miss something truly amazing. The addition of Rebecca Ferguson as Isla Faust throws an interesting mix into the plot and cast of characters. She keeps you guessing as to which side she is on. The main threat the Mission Impossible Team is fighting is a rogue group called the Syndicate who is just as skilled as the Mission Impossible team. The Syndicate has some very dangerous plans the the IMF has to shut down but of course it is hard to find members of The Syndicate. Ethan Hunt and Isla Faust do this dance where Isla gives him some clues but then disappears and acts in a way that confuses Ethan, not just the viewers. The stunts are out of this world in this movie. It is worth seeing the movie just for the stunts. Almost everyone has seen the previews where Tom Cruise is attached to the outside of a plane. Yes, Tom really did do this stunt. Another amazing stunt is where Tom holds his breath in a tank for several minutes while accomplishing a task important to the mission. Alec Baldwin is a nice addition as Alan Hunley of the CIA. He wants to shut down the IMF. Simon Pegg is back and is so funny. The rest of the team is back too such as Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames. The rapport the team has together is so much fun to see. One really fun scene is where Tom is driving a car at high speeds and Simon Pegg is in the car and the dialogue between the two is hilarious. A scene in court where Alan Hunley tries to make a case for shutting down the IMF is pretty funny too as Ethan and the team come up with answers that defy Hunley at every turn. If you love Tom Cruise and action packed movies, you must see this movie.

If you love the MI movies, you won't be disappointed.
They manage to come up with great new story lines. There will nearly always have a good motorcycle race and Tom and his stunt doubles (what few there are) do a great job. You have to kind of have to leave the "really?" on some of the stunts behind and just enjoy the movie. Have heard it's coming to an end soon. Too bad, it's been a fun ride

"Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation" is an adrenaline-fueled winner
I am not a big fan of Tom Cruise the man.But I have to admit that I really like his movies.And when you add Rebecca Ferguson to the mix, "Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation" is an absolute winner.Cruise rarely gets to show what a skilled actor he really is since most of his roles- especially lately - are more physical than intellectual but that's not really a drawback in my opinion: He is brilliant when it comes to action movies and the fact that he does most of his own stunts only adds to their appeal. That's true in this film, which could almost be accused of being a James Bond clone with its worldwide criminal/terrorist organization attacking anyone and everyone and a beautiful heroine who is a crack shot, an expert knife fighter, and martial artist. Ferguson, as Ilsa Faust, is a delight to watch and a perfect complement to Cruise's generally low-key portrayal of IMF agent Ethan Hunt. Cruise and Ferguson work well together and I would love to see them in a subsequent film.Mission Impossible regulars Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, and Jeremy Renner are back and do a wonderful job in supporting roles as does franchise newcomer Alec Baldwin as the director of the CIA. Sean Harris, as head of the terrorist organization Solomon Kane, is very good in the role in which he matches Cruise's understated menace with his own soft-spoken villainy.Great action sequences - including a spectacular motorcycle chase - and excellent fight scenes - especially Ferguson's knife duel with Jens Hulten as bad guy Janik Vinter - make this a must see for anyone in the mood for a pulse-pounding, adrenaline-fueled night at the movies.

We had a MI Night
My partner and I absolutely love these movies. But for whatever reason never saw this one. So we had a viewing party of all the previous ones. But this one by far is my favorite. The train scene had me on the edge of my seat. Apparently it was to reference the first movie but this was ten times better. We’re ready for part 2!
