To be the guy in the truck... that's worse

This is the only featurette on the DVD of Mission: Impossible III, and it is, indeed, a making-of documentary on the film(albeit it does not delve that deeply into all areas of production). It consists of interviews, behind the scenes footage(including pre-vis and green screen photography) and clips of the movie. This is well-paced, and covers a nice bit of ground in the almost half hour running time. It goes through a lot of the action scenes(you might want to hold off on watching this until you've seen the flick itself; with that said, it doesn't spoil any plot points per se, though the hints might get you to figure out a twist or two before you're meant to), but it does include other things; they're just not the main focus. This is quite informative and detailed, and everything is explained pretty well. It does not feel too promotional, in spite of the occasional love-fest. There are some some memorable anecdotes in this, and everyone has something to say or add. There is no violence, sexuality or strong language in this. I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed MI:III. 7/10
