28 Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation
The fifth film in the Mission Impossible film franchise, very loosely based on a 1960's television series. Starring Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt. Also starring Simon Pegg as Benjamin 'Benji' Dunn, Jeremy Renner, Alex Baldwin and Rebecca Ferguson. Ethan Hunt is on the run, after the Impossible Mission Force is dissolved at the behest of the head of the CIA. He is involved in the hunt for an organisation called the Syndicate, which he calls a 'rogue nation'. He must again travel around the world.
(From, London, to Paris, to a Viennese opera, to Morocco, and back to London again.) Another series of high flying, and deep diving, stunts follow, (Including Hunt clinging to the side of an ascending aircraft) as Hunt recruits his old teamates and keep ahead of the CIA, to investigate and try to shut down the Syndicate. A wrinkle in the plan is a British Agent who has been sent to infiltrate the Syndicate is being manipulated on both sides. Tom Cruise continues to have a great presence as Ethan Hunt.
Simon Pegg still adds a comic releif in his role as Hunts colleague and friend. Rebecca Ferguson is also great as the British Agent. A better film than the previous one. 8.5/10.
