Rogue Nation
Mission Impossible
Review by Ross Anthony

It's a fun action spy movie. Tom Cruise is quite likable as the agent that can do anything. And Rebecca Ferguson plays the beautiful mysterious, very capable, spy that leaves everyone wanting to trust her, yet more likely doubting her. Sean Harris makes for a creepy smart bad guy. Simon Pegg provides some good laughs. The tables turn often keeping the story moving at a good pace with the action. The acting is good for the most part, and although the dialogue dips at times, most of the interaction is compelling.

It's a fun film. A good ride. But afterwards, it's over with, like a roller coaster … on to the next shiny thing.
