Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation stayed true to the MI infrastructure which has made it’s brand a legendary franchise. That should bode well for most of us and then again perhaps not... I observed a few complaints about the predictability of the story line despite the film’s loyalty to the original fan base. Objectively, I can see both sides even though I lean more towards respecting the brand and them not trying to be something else. Risky transformations/redirection of brand identity can work though. I cite Fast Five of the Fast & Furious franchise
The IMF is always running the risk of being shut down but that threat is imminent this narrative. I really found this story interesting and unpredictable, two characteristics of any successful movie. I thought this was one of the better chapters in the MI gift set.
Quick notation of a pleasantly hidden easter egg, I love the soft reverence to the classic Casablanca. Not only was a portion of the story there but the lead actress's name is Ilsa. The actress Rebecca Ferguson is Swedish like Ingrid Bergman… Selfishly I had to point that out because remember, Casablanca made my 15 Greatest Films of All-Time [so far] list.
So!!! Worth Watching in my book!
