I had seen an interview with Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise, while they were shooting this movie. And one thing became apparent (which also is very much apparent in the movie): They had lots of fun doing the movie. And while it does have quite a few flaws (story/continuity-wise and so forth), you could just sit back and relax a movie, that just wants to entertain.
Not all jokes work (for me), especially a pay off, at the end of the movie, delivered by Camerons, just feels too forced, but all in all, this was entertaining enough. Just try not to think too much about it and let this warm-up for M:I 4 (at least for Tom Cruise) do the job for you. Yes you can and some probably will hate it (and it's completely understandable), but I let my doubts (even after watching it) aside and gave it 7 instead of 6 out of 10 ...
