Watched Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One on the flight. They really had a formula for all these movies, didn’t they! I’m not sure I’m buying (spoiler alert) “a supreme artificial intelligence” as the main bad guy for even one of these movies, let alone two, but it seems like AI is all over the place these days so I guess it’s about as “sign of the times” as the media mogul bad guy in that one Pierce Brosnan James Bond movie.
I do like the addition of Hayley Atwell to this franchise. I don’t know if they’ll end up letting her anchor a second generation of them over the next ten years, but I would watch them. But I also thought they were doing that with Jeremy Renner in Ghost Protocol and that didn’t exactly go anywhere, so I guess we’ll see.
(Also they could have let Josh Holloway survive Ghost Protocol and I would have watched all sorts of that.)
