Good, crunchy fun.

You know, I don't think of myself as acrophobic, but those scenes on the Burj Dubai building - even on a laptop screen - made my palms sweat.

Yeah, those scenes were pretty nuts. I liked how poor Cruise had to one-glove it like Michael Jackson to reach the server room.

The movie went downhill once Cruise escaped from the
Russian prison. In real life (not reel life), he would have been a quick treat for the Caucasian mountain prison dogs.

Well, if we're talking about real life, Cruise probably never would have made it out of MI:1

I enjoyed the film. It's not the sort of thing you want to take too seriously. Kind of like Tom Cruise in general.

John from Daejeon said...

Yeah, but I guess I'm still really peeved that Cruise bought his way into the 6'5", 50-inch chest, 250 pound hero of Lee Child's excellent Jack Reacher series of novels.

Not only is he on the puny/tiny side, he's also way too long in the tooth to be playing Reacher in "One Shot."
