Worth the money for the last 30mins alone

just a shame that the first 90mins were a bit slow and stale.

John Woo did himself proud in the last half hour of MI:2. So he may have stole the bunker scene from METAL GEAR SOLID and the fight from TEKKEN 3 but who cares, the bike chase was ( IMHO ) well worth the cash !!!!

Absouletly great !

Someone has put a post saying it sounded flat. I would be interested to know what they really meant, as the sound for me was great. It really reminded me of why im glad I own my A1D. The sound was great, although rear effects were a little limited. Good solid Bass that went real deep when needed and some great effects. The dialouge also never got lost in all the ruff stuff.

Just a pity Mr Hunt never got to use his fighting and shooting skills that little bit more, oh well there will always be MI:3 and we can hope that Mr Woo gets a job with the next BOND movie !!!!!!!

just watched some of the extras on the disc. Now im not an extras fan and this is probably only the second lot I have bothered with out of a collection of 150+ but im glad I did.

The spoof MISSION IMPROBABLE, was very funny, even featuring spoofs of MAGNOLIA and COCKTAIL.

May now consider watching some of the other extras now

I have just finiahed watching MI:2 (I did see it at the cinema), and I enjoyed it even more this time!
Gotta agree with you though Duncan....the last 30-40 minutes really make the movie.

As far as the extras are concerned..I watched most of those yesterday and they are graet...some of the best I have seen in ages.

I thought the film as a whole was below average. Woo copied too much from Face Off and the bad guy was just 'Not evil enough' (as a famous bald bad guy once said to his son).

I also think that Thandie Newton was underused in the film (and yes she is nice) and it concentrated too much on the Cruiser.

It also lacked the double-triple-quadruple cross plot of the original and concentrated too much on action.

I saw the spoof thing on the MTV music awards.

Tom Cruise in Magnolia reminded me a LOT of him in Cocktail. I thoroughly enjoyed the Frank MacKay seminar extra on the Magnola 2disc set. I nearly wet myself with laughter.

Mr Woo made Van Damme superhuman.
Keanu Reeves thinks that hes totally hard after the Matrix.
But Tom was made the coolest, who better that!
