MI1: Suspense/Thriller
MI2: Action Movie
MI3: The Feel Good Romantic Comedy of the Year!
Mixed emotions. It definitely had some good action scenes and suspense, but I feel that the movie copped out. Hunt essentially retiring from IMF and becoming domestic didn't sit too well with me for starters. I also felt that the film didn't deliver on the "promises" made by the pre-credit sequence. The first scene definitely put a sense of dark foreboding into the rest of the movie, but the ending was ultimately too happy and for me didn't really pay off. It would have been better if Hoffman would have killed Jules as predicted by the opening scene. I was also REALLY hoping that we wouldn't have another rogue agent plot; as that device seems done to death the third time over.
Those are my gripes. Other than that, I too was impressed by the scenes in Rome as well as the Bridge shoot-out. Good stuff. What was that gun that Cruise used on the bridge?
