mission impossible: fall out.
Pros:
1) this is their 6th installment so I give it they already a great job coming up with a legit script. (eg// there is always a twist, so, in a way I'm still happy to see the script (still) worked.
2) yes, there is no CGI in this
3) The score was different so good for them to be able to pull it off.
4) Henry Cavill (Superman) had to put on a mustache (I secretly think it's the ONLY way we can take him seriously due to the cliche superman image.
5) yes, there is the famous helicopter scene & the scene where he broke his foot was the draw since TOm does his own stunts (some of it and the broken foot one made it to the cut)

Bad / cons
1) I do not think it was that action packed; the action sequence were weak. Him riding the BMW R nineT motorcycle was boring and didn't have any tension; he was just running away from the cops. Not a lot of crazy gun fights either.
2) Henry Cavill really can't act. He did this role ok, just that one scene of him talking to (Angela Bassett) the black chick, was weakkkk sauce.
3) last 2 MI movies: BMW cars + new hand print on window technology / windshield GPS, this one.. nothing.

I really had high hopes because the reviews were great. I know they put a lot of efforts on making a difference in this one, from the music & stunts. Just didn't feel there were too much tension in this one and the locations were not memorable.

Compared these:
Rouge Nation: Morocco motorcycle chase scene, opera house,jumping into the water hole holding breath for 2 minutes.
Ghost Protocol: Filmed in BC, climbing "Dubai" and using contact lens technology, Russia Kremlin (3D projector + water drip scene)
MI3 was Philip Seymour Hoffman in China and jumping over the two buildings.

I would watch the previous 2 than this one. 7.5/10
