Tom Cruise has accepted the mission, and as always, should this film fail or be killed, the audience will disavow any knowledge of your actions.
Maybe not, since it seems that Cruise is taking that happy trail back to the action flicks we love him for, and is proving to be less looney toons that we thought he was. But it has now been anounced that Cruise will return to Mission Impossible after his similiarily themed Knight and Day.
Tom Cruise has announced that he’s returning to the Mission Impossible franchise for a fourth film.
Cruise and J.J. Abrams — who co-wrote the “Mission: Impossible III” screenplay — will produce from a screenplay by Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec
I did like the first Mission Impossible film. It really captured the crazy impossible planning that they pulled off in the original TV series and was true to the franchise. As the series went on, MI got less and less appealing to me. I didn’t mind them, but they didnt have that same excitement.
I know its called Mission Impossible, not Mission Mostly Difficult, but I expected to see some stretching of reality and physics while still maintaining some wow factor believablity. The third was better at it, so hopefully we are headed in the right direction.
I hope this next chapter returns to some more impossible but slightly plausible action thats not so uneccessarily over the top. Oh, and Hawk needs to find some other motivation other than a girl… just sayin.
