4/10
Way too predictable
29 May 2000
If you have trouble following this Mission Impossible, I'm sorry, but you are most definitely an idiot. This movie is SO obvious, from the plot to the action sequences, that it makes watching it about as boring as synchronized swimming. Every "twist" is seen in advance, every little crazy action sequence (excluding the cool hand-to-hand, which is obviously Woo's forte in that he makes Tom Cruise look like Bruce Lee) could have been scripted by anyone who has seen multiple Bond films, and every string tied to the romantic storyline is too sappy to be real. The writers are obviously too used to half-hour storylines, and the director too good at Hong Kong action flicks to reduce himself to this trash. Even the remade theme song deserves a knockdown. I'm sorry people, but this movie sucks. Go watch the first one again, and don't bother with this lackluster attempt at filmmaking.
