Still not as good as the Television show its based on. This one is better to understand than the first one. Woo is an excellent director for this movie. And cruise comes back with style.

A super virus is engineered and is stolen, only Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his IMF Force (Rhames and others) must find out what it is and how to capture it. The story gets good as Hunt is on his "Vacation" in Australia on some cliffs, but gets on a mission to find out what "Chimera" is. He picks up a thief (Thandie Newton) as an IMF member but he soon finds out her real purpose. He also gets some other help from a computer tech spy (Rhames) and a aussie spy. There still is the IMF team in there but now they're there to help Hunt, with the mission. He gets to do some really cool stunts from Hong Kong Stunt Director John Woo who is a master at filming movies with action sequences. 10/10 for interesting plots and gadgets to an exceptionally good cruise, a little unbelieveable but hey action movies are that way. 100%/100% for really neat titles and good use of set design and color. to bad theater I was in had bad Speakers. 1
