Much better than that Mission: Impossible 2. This movie is definitely THE summer movie. It has a fantastic - not to mention "sterile" - look to it. It's fantastic on the eyes and really has a comic book feel to it. Also, the action is actually fun and exhilarating, and not just annoying and phony, hence M:I 2. A very clever movie where the dialogue isn't actually that annoying. I left the theater feeling GREAT. This is, by far, Brian Singer's best movie.
