Great entertainer! A wonderfully stylized cinematography that keeps you interested & engaged to the tip of your couch. A great glimpse of the modern new world being built in the middle-east dispelling the unfounded fear orchestrated by the American media & fed to us. It's no different living in the Christian south. I vicariously fought the bad guys & saved the world once more through Tom Cruise's character! Now trying to buy the entIre Mission Impossible set in BluRay....
What's great about it: Cinematography & it's fast paced action that keeps you glued till the end!
What's not so great: Plot & the somewhat access to all things 'Bond' by the villains....
Great cinematic expression of war & it's futility.

Brilliant movie that captures the lives of people who were first-hand witnesses to the raw brutality of war & the suffering that ensues long after. It also portrays the indefatigable human spirit to seek freedom & protection for its people despite risks to their own lives! It shows how a few & then all who are affected by war must and do stand up to the atrocities they have experienced to seek an end to it, especially the women & children!
What's great about it: Most involved in the project were witnesses to the ravages of the Serb-Croat conflict.
What's not so great: I wish the extras included real footage of the UN proceedings & the then preoccupation of the apathetic American media
