October 31, 2009After watching repeated runs of this on TNT, I realize it's not as bad as I initially thought...Still, it has issues, and also never quite matches the quality of the first one.

August 27, 2009Caught the conclusion on CBC, and it's fairly exciting: lots of sprinting Tom Cruise and some great Phillip Seymour Hoffman playing-himself-for-a-ton-of-money villainy. I would watch the whole thing some time, for sure. [Real review pending.]

July 18, 2009This is getting better, again, the action is very very good, the film looks good and its become alittle more adult in time. Almost a 'Die Hard' style flick, but not a 'Die Hard' beater. Again, Cruise likes himself too much but the cast makes up for it, Hoffman being a very close ...( read more)

October 14, 2009Lots of good action and suspense. The shooting and editing of the action scenes as well as the special effects were impressive. The scene when he was standing over the roof in Shanghai was an impressive shot as if he was standing right on the edge. Too bad his wife dies at the en...( read more)

October 11, 2009Phillip Seymour Hoffman is one of today's greatest actors, but for some reason I have a difficult time taking him as an evil character. It's not his thing. He's played too many idiosyncratic/gay/mentally challenged/dumb characters to all of a sudden play a serious terrorist. And ...( read more)

The grand finale? A fistfight, after which somebody gets run over. Listen, if I want to see that kind of action, I don't go to Shanghai. I don't even go to the movies. I go to the South Bronx and stan... full review

Shallow to its core and as propulsive as a runaway locomotive, it's the most blatantly summer movie-ish of the Mission Impossibles. full review
May 4, 2006
Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
A smart, tightly directed thriller that could serve as the template for film schools teaching Summertime Escapism 101. full review
May 4, 2006
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
There is a theory that action is exciting and dialogue is boring. My theory is that variety is exciting and sameness is boring. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Against sizable odds -- a sense that the franchise is played out and its star over-exposed -- Mission: Impossible III delivers. full review
May 4, 2006
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
This is the franchise's third film (each with a different director), and it may well be the most successful of the bunch. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
M:I:3 is big, cacophonous entertainment, crackling and explosive, a giant bag of Pop Rocks for the eyes. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Watching Mission: Impossible III, I kept wishing I was at home watching episodes of Alias instead. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
The movie to beat this summer in the race to push your pulse rate past the danger zone. And please don't ask if the plot makes sense. full review

February 24, 2009Tom does a great job. More like an episode of 24 really. Exciting fast paced but i got bored with it. Maybe should have been shorter. Wont watch again.

April 24, 2007A nice and holistic meld of action and passion. Nothing short of stellar acting and stunning action and sweet story.
Good flick. -
January 3, 2007Good God almighty! Take the biggest star in hollywood, put him in a mega action blockbuster, with Abrams directing costarring a man who won the award for best actor, and this is what you get,a movie that rocks the boxoffice and blows audiences away. MI3 delivers the bang in a big way, Tom Cruise gives his top quality performance. The effects, the story,the action, the music, everything is so intense. Way better than your average action flick. MI3 the best installment yet, puts you right in the danger zone and thrills you again and again. You will believe the main characters emotion, you will believe the egotistic motivation of the villian,you WON't be able to believe the high risk over the top stunts. You might even discover that being bored during this film is simply...impossible.
