This Christmas, Ethan Hunt is back for more piece of the action. Tom Cruise and the rest of the pack are back. Also cast this time around are Jeremy Runner, Simon Pegg and Indian actor Anil Kapoor.
The IMF is shut down when it’s implicated in a global terrorist bombing plot. Ghost Protocol is initiated and Ethan Hunt and his rogue new team must go undercover to clear their organization’s name. No help, no contact, off the grid. You have never seen a mission grittier and more intense than this.
This shall be the first live action movie for Brad Bird, director of Pixar classics like Incredibles and Ratatouille. And with JJ Abrams producing, we expect the franchise to really take it up a notch.
Going by Mission Impossible:Ghost Protocol or MI4, you could state Brad Bird has certainly accomplished the mission of creating a wall to wall action fiesta. Intentions are clear from the very onset. Throw in over the top action spectacle and appeal to the widest audience possible. Even if it means setting the film in asian cities like Dubai and Mumbai. The film may lack depth or even a great script for that matter, but Bird makes up for it with gracefully executed action sequences that tends to make you forget the screen time that it is gulping up. So be it the Russian prison escape, the Kremlin breach, the Dubai hotel fiasco or the Mumbai car park finale, Brad Bird manages to prove his mastery at staging each action sequences with aplomb.
