Movie Review

Only John Woo could turn a movie that was restricted to its own complexity into an action-packed franchise. Mission: Impossible 2 is a prime example of Woo's work. The first Mission: Impossible was a decent film; it had some intense action scenes (the train), some ingenious scenes (the beginning and the CIA sequence), and a complicated plot. An overly complicated plot. So it was okay, but it wasn't exceptional in action nor did it lend itself to having a sequel, mainly for the reason that the story was so complicated that the sequel would either have to have an equally strange plot, or, as is the attempt in many sequels, and even more complicated plot.
