Agent Ethan Hunt and his team of 3, are after nuclear extremist Hendricks who is after some codes, files and the tracking satellite to launch a nuclear missile and cause havoc in the US.
The chase for Hendricks starts in Kremlin where Hendricks steals from the Russians and proceeds to Dubai and finally to India. Hunt and team expectedly prevent the missile from blowing off.
All this happens after the IMF is shut down following the implementation of Ghost Protocol.
The Dubai portion of the movie where Hunt performs some incredible stunts in the extremely high rise Burj Hotel to get the files and authentication codes from Wistrom, is the major highlight.

Hits
- Tom Cruise is super agile for his age. Though his physique and face show off his age, his stunts at the Burj are the paisa vasool moments of the film.
- Paula Patton as the hot team mate of Hunt, is too sexy and seducing, particularly in the Indian leg of the movie, with her cleavage fest. She seduces the silly Anil Kapoor to part with the information she needs.
- Simon Pegg as Benji pulls off some good funny dialogues with perfect timing.
- Some scenes showing off the technical expertise of the team like taking printouts through the eye, forming a virtual screen showing the reflection etc. are awe-inspiring.
Comments
- Jeremy Renner as Agent Brandt doesn't have much to do except some stunts in the Indian leg of the movie
Misses
- The climax is silly. Like a Vijay movie's. Tom Cruise just punching the keyboard and the missile going bust is so similar to the Sura scene.
- Passing off Bangalore as Mumbai and showing SUN Network being used for launching nuclear missiles is another silly part of the movie
VERDICT
Starts off well but, peters out in the end.
