Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation review. *This review will contain spoilers*

I have decided to rate Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation 7/10, 3 Stars. This review will contain spoilers so if you don't want to know, then don't read ahead.

I was very much looking forward to Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation starring Tom Cruise (Edge of Tomorrow, Minority Report), Jeremy Renner (Hurt Locker, The Town), Simon Pegg (Paul, Star Trek into Darkness), Rebecca Ferguson (Hercules, The White Queen) and Alec Baldwin (The Red Hunt for October, The Departed) and for the most part it was a very enjoyable film with great acting and a nice level of humour and thrill. However, I was let down and disappointed by a few things and it didn't feel like a Mission: Impossible film; Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation more felt like a mash up of Hitman and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, the story-line didn't flow well, events were rushed into or given no setting before hand at all in some cases, the actions scenes looked hastily thought out and it didn't contain many elements of the previous films. In all the previous Mission: Impossible films there are several heart pounding moments and scenes but in this one there was nothing particularly spectacular about it, there was no real wow factor. I know that the I.M.F is an independent espionage agency but in the films before it there was much less spying, sneaking around and deception, and more danger-driven action, suspense and action, maybe Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation was different from the last four on purpose to go down a new path but I didn't enjoy at as much. Also, in Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol there was a team member called Jane Carter portrayed by Paula Patton (2 Guns, Deja Vu) and in Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation she is nowhere to be seen with no explanation where she went or what happened, and finally after the reveal in Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol that William Brandt portrayed by Jeremy Renner wasn't just an analyst and that he was in-fact a brilliant agent with a high-range of skills we were made to believe that he would be back in the field again and that we would see more of him but we did not, in fact we saw barely any of him which was very disappointing.

For the most part of the film I really enjoyed it, it of course had a brilliant level of humour provided mainly by Benji who really stole the show this film and there were a few scenes that I really, really loved such as the amazing car - bike chase in Morocco, specifically when Ethan changed from car to bike and there was a spectacular homage paid to the bike chase in Mission Impossible 2. While the story certainly was a hard task for the I.M.F what with the added pressure from the C.I.A it didn't feel quite as impossible as the story in Ghost Protocol, and I don't think much will ever seem more impossible than that. I would still recommend watching Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation but it wasn't the film I was hoping it would be, it was not of the same caliber of the previous stories.
