Movie Review: "Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation"

What's up guys? I'm back with another candidate for the movie of the summer. Yes, I'm going to review the fifth installment of the Mission Impossible. Without further a due, let's jump straight to the review. 

The movie starts with the IMF (Impossible Mission Force) where on of it's agent, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and the crew intercept the nerve gas which will be sold to the terrorist using an airplane. Ethan Hunt then is convinced that he can prove Syndicate, an international criminal consortium. When Hunt tries to report and investigate Syndicate's existence, he was captured by a man in glasses and was hold captive by the Syndicate operatives. Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson) then helps Hunt got away. Six months later, Hunt still continues the investigation of the Syndicate. He then contacts Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg) to help him finds the man in glasses, later identified as Solomon Lane (Sean Harris) in Vienna, Austria where he plots to kill the Austrian Chancellor. I won't spoil anymore of the story, but Hunt and the crew later knows something hat could bring down Lane. 

The story is just like the ordinary story like the other spies movies, tries to bring the bad guy down and so on. The story is a little bit disappointing, with a little plot twist and it's cliche, you will know who's who and how the story will go on. But, that all was covered in great action sequences, great fighting choreography, and some funny and silly jokes. There's one more thing weakness in this movie is, the bad CGI, not all of them, but you will see it in some scenes. And the usage of the Dolby Atmos is perfect, the sound of the movie sounds so real and makes it more interesting.

Next, i'm going to talk about the acting of the actors. Tom Cruise is just getting more badass than ever. His act really shows that, "I'm Ethan Hunt and don't try to mess with me". And in the fact that he did one of the stunts himself, make me want to praise him more.

Rebecca Ferguson playing as Ilsa Faust is not that bad, she can act following the flow of Tom Cruise's act, and she did it really well. Another supporting actor is Simon Pegg, who plays as Benji Dunn, since his appearance in "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol", the actor makes another appearance in this movie and he did it very well just like he did in the previous movie. 

The unfortunate ones are Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames who didn't get as much playtime like in the previous movie. 

Overall, this movie is one of the best movies this summer and a must watch. The movie is better than the previous ones in my opinion, and it was reported that there will be Mission Impossible 6! Looking forward to it.
