I don't write reviews and won't ever because I'm far too incoherent to write a proper one. So I'll just relate some thoughts about Tom's latest film.

*SLIGHT SPOILERS*

What a great way to kick-start the summer. It's really been a while since the last time I saw a flick that was unapologetically action-packed with a nice plotline to boost the story.

The action sequences were just fucking incredible. From the mindless, major-scale attack on the bridge to the ultra-slick Vatican break-in. No words can describe how much I adore the attack on the bridge. 'Awesome' is an understatement.

Thank goodness for teamwork, which was sorely lacking in M:I 2. It's still all about Ethan but the IMF team played pretty major roles in the action sequences this time, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Plot-wise it was quite complicated but not as convoluted as M:I. Yes, I did think the first M:I got unnecessarily complex towards the end. I still love that film nonetheless. This time round, JJ Abrams injected a personal aspect to the movie, making Ethan more human. I was a little disappointed that Davian wasn't the mastermind because I sure as hell wanted to see Philip Seymour Hoffman do some serious damage.

I totally digged the bomb in head thing. What a cool concept.

Minor gripe with the Rabbit's Foot. Let's just say that I don't really like MacGuffins. I know that whatever the Rabbit's Foot is, it's not going to advance the story in any way but these are the sort of useless details that I'd like to know. So we got this anti-god explanation, but that only suggests that it's man-made and possibly a bioweapon. Oh well.

Overall, I enjoyed the hell out of this movie, even on second viewing. Great cast, plot, action... and a fantastic opening.
