MI: 4 "Ghost Protocol" Mission to Drive

N0OS3 · 12-30-2011, 06:43 AM

So if any of you guys seen the movie yet, there's definitely a plethora of BMW's in the movie as well as more than enough iPhones and even an iPad used in a mission... lol Marketing campaigns are getting pretty cheesy. I thought it was ironic how the terrorists' computer was a dell [the enemy] lmao

I do appreciate though that not too much of the movie was targeting the i8 and maintained a point to get on with the storyline... though it was nice ogling over it for a few minutes lol

just saw it last night and honestly was disappointed...pretty bad acting if you ask me...I laughed every time a bmw was conveniently accessible...

N0OS3 · 12-30-2011, 07:42 AM

lol yeah... convertible 6 series... stolen -> wrecked... 1 series hatch -> dropped off a 100ft+ ledge... i8 ... well, of course they're not going to replicate that getting damaged lol

I thought a lot of the gadgetry was pretty neat

I actually really enjoyed it.

that was probably the highlight of the movie for me..pretty inventive..But Daniel Craig's Bond Movies blow this out the water IMO

maybe if their was a better female lead....Paula's acting is horrible..they needed better fight sequences as well...that Old man giving Cruise a fight at the end was lame...

I liked the fight in the hotel room. Laughed when the girl fell out of the window. That dress she wore was beautiful.

A disappointing movie IMO.

mad villain · 12-30-2011, 01:26 PM

i actually enjoyed it...saw it in IMAX which is always fun. Some of the stuff was very predictable but i thought they did a good job of throwin in some humor (even if some of it was very cheesy). it was nice to c some BMW's in the movie....the i8 and the 6 series looked so sick!

i have to disagree with JSCO....IMO Quantum of Solace was a terrible movie....this was much better.

I hear ya man..but really..that opening scene when Paula was recounting what happened to her boyfriend was just dreadful to watch...

monkawekrue · 12-30-2011, 02:31 PM

now i dont gotta see the movie

Schm · 12-30-2011, 03:05 PM

Sorry, I actually liked it. Good popcorn flick, alright story, Cruise basically carried the movie and Simon Pegg (One of my fav comedians) adding a bit of comic relief.

Also, I thought the indian guy (From Slumdog Millionaire) was hilarious as well.

Simon Pegg and the indian guy were probably the highlight for me...Vince at the end was pretty funny too

that was a great gadget. It was funny when Pegg's face got in the way lol. Overall I enjoyed the movie. I do think it was much better than quantum of solace

Jonny550 · 12-30-2011, 11:18 PM

Wow i do not agree, i think its one of the better movies i watched this year. The part when he was climbing the burge building...MY hands started to frikin sweat LOL i was really into the movie.

The absolute only thing that was bad was the girl. I mean she was really not made for the role. They could have picked at least an 8 to play the role with better acting. But seriously a 6 to play "the hottie/ kick-ass girl" in a major multi-million dollar movie?!?,.

great gadget! My friends and i were all saying the same thing... and was pretty funny when simon's face got caught in it. lol

I didn't think too much of the fight scene at the end myself, but i thought it was pretty funny.

A few questions i had at the end are... one, if he could have launched the nuke from anywhere, why did he have to go back to that particular office?
Also... how did agent hunt (tom cruise) not smash that car [dropped from 100ft+] on top of the briefcase?
