Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol Ratings & Reviews
- TanalienJanuary 9, 2025Looking back on the fourth iteration of Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible series, it features the bones of many big-budget, modern action films: a fast-paced, twisting-and-turning plot, a steady dose of humor, and multiple leading stars. This formula is so replicable that many other films copy and paste it to varying degrees of success. What is the difference between Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol and the rest? I would argue it is a solid script, the concise vision of director Brad Bird, and, of course, Tom Cruise.
- keithy07721h agoLots of TC running.
- Andy LeeMay 24, 2025Thanks for saving SF, Ethan 🙏
- James SaenzMay 9, 2025“mission accomplished!” tom cruise is finally letting loose with the physical comedy and simon pegg’s role becoming more prominent is only a benefit to this series. the burj khalifa set piece and espionage hijinks are genuinely exhilarating and the best parts of this film; plus the supporting cast is solid all around (god bless the casting directors for getting léa seydoux in this film she’s luminous). there are things to critique about it, like how the cg compositing has not aged well over time and how somewhat reserved a majority of the stunts feel in comparison to previous entries, but the experience overall is tight and fun the whole way through. brad bird’s direction is definitely an improvement over abrams’, but de palma’s is still my favorite. this definitely comes the closest so far to emulating the humor and atmosphere of the original and melding it with modern sensibilities. if the first half of woo’s sequel wasn’t so abysmally nauseating with its forced hetero energy it would’ve edged out this entry. if only there were an app in which i could discuss jeremy renner’s role in this film with other diehard fans.

- Kevin WardJuly 7, 2025This one lives up to it’s reputation. It features some really creative action set pieces. I love the continually progressing espionage tech with the MVP going to the projection hallway sequence. The entire team has really excellent chemistry together. Cruise, Renner, Patton and Pegg. I loved it. Kids loved it. Even my daughter who sat out part 3, I think is back on board with the franchise. I regret not watching this one sooner. Looking forward to the next entries.
- PatrikStarJune 19, 2025The humor to action rate is perfect in that movie!
- Spaceman JoeMay 28, 2025It’s just so amazing. Best franchise right here.
- Edward SchofieldJune 17, 2025Peak second act.
- ColeApril 17, 2025Ethan Hunt’s transformation into a looney tunes character begins here and it’s glorious. The stakes are high and its action set pieces reflect that — the sandstorm car chase, the car park fight vs Cobalt, TOM SCALING THE BURJ KHALIFA! Not to mention Benji gets more of the spotlight and I love the additions of Brandt and Jane. Need them back for Final Reckoning desperately. The start of a new era in Mission and it kicks off with a BANG.
- RyezooFebruary 14, 2025Wow. I am just in love with this franchise. The plot made a lot more sense to me then it did almost 8 years ago. Super smart and brilliantly made action film. How they wonderfully set that sandstorm up 30 mins prior to using it is so badass. I also had much more appreciation for the ending scene of this.
