Mission Impossible Rogue Nation – Reviews Round Up

Mission Impossible Rogue Nation review by Manohla Dargis

Sleek and bloated, specific and generic, “Rogue Nation” is pretty much like most of the “Impossible” movies in that it’s an immense machine that [Director] Mr McQuarrie, after tinkering and oiling, has cranked up again and set humming with twists and turns, global trotting and gadgets, a crack supporting cast and a hard-working star.

It’s the kind of pure cine-spectacle that jolts you before sweeping you up.

Mission Impossible Rogue Nation review by Kenneth Turan

Once again, Tom Cruise accomplishes the near-impossible in ‘Rogue Nation’.

Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson brings a bit of unexpected maturity and substance to the role of the inscrutable Ilsa Faust, an individual who is fully Hunt’s equal, and then some, in derring-do. Yes, she has a scene in a black bikini, but you’d better believe she is wearing it for an operational reason.

Mission Impossible Rogue Nation review by Peter Bradshaw

Tom Cruise’s unlikely survival as a traditional action hero continues with this spy-thriller franchise’s fifth instalment, which makes no significant attempts to update the formula.

It’s really just a chain of colossal action sequences that could be shown in any order.

Mission Impossible Rogue Nation review by Chris Nashawaty

Rogue Nation may not be the best, the tightest, or even the most logically coherent M:I flick, but there should be more movies like it: relentlessly thrilling, smart entertainments for folks who can’t tell the difference between Quicksilver and The Flash—and aren’t particularly interested in trying to learn the difference either.

Rating: B+ (4.5 Stars)
