Mission Impossible II (2000)

Director: John Woo
Starring: Tom Cruise, Thandie Newton, Dougray Scott, Ving Rhames, Richard Roxburgh, Brendan Gleeson
Certificate: 15
Genre: Action
Awards: None

Ethan Hunt (Cruise) returns in this sequel where he has to take down an ex-coworker who has stolen a genetically modified disease. His target takes him to Australia where he sets up his new team including Thief Nyah Nordoff- Hall (Newton) who used to be in a relationship with the target. That's it basically.

MI2 is a massive disappointment. John Woo's slow motion is overdone so much with slow mo shots of pigeons flying and Tom Cruise looking moody. And the love story. Oh god the love story. It's so cheesy it's hard to bear. The villain is incredibly boring and the story is as forgettable.

**Pretty Bad
