Mission: Impossible III

I’m slowly doing a rewatch of MI movies. After watching this, I can see this movie was the true start of the franchise. 1 & 2 were very basic in storytelling but this film made the series worth coming back to year after year

Solid action and imo better than the previous movie

Hoffman is a fantastic actor

...this snappy installment is a marked improvement over John Woo's surprisingly dull sequel, though the set pieces lack the elegance and visual coherence of the Brian de Palma original. The best of the first three for its nonstop action and sometimes pulse-pounding excitement.

A nice return to form after the slight misstep of part two. It most definitely has one of the best villains in the series. The opening is just stuff of intense scenarios. Phillip Seymour Hoffman rip. The first one which fleshes Ethan's personal life a bit.

Good 👍🏻
