Back To Index Mission: Impossible II
 Barnes & Noble Tom Cruise returns as intrepid Impossible Missions Force agent Ethan Hunt in this supercharged sequel directed flamboyantly by Hong Kong action specialist John Woo (The Killer). Summoned from his vacation while mountain climbing, Hunt accepts an assignment from his chief (played by Anthony Hopkins with his usual flair): apprehend rogue agent Dougray Scott before he auctions a stolen virus and its antidote to the highest bidder. After he summons agent Ving Rhames, Cruise enlists radiant Thandie Newton, a sophisticated thief and Scotts former girlfriend, in his campaign against the turncoat. Screenwriter Robert Towne coats this rough-edged adventure with a sheen of sophistication, particularly apparent in the seductive byplay between Cruise and Newton. But the pictures punch comes from Woos inspired handling of the high-octane chases and fights, in which Cruise proves himself surprisingly capable. A bracing shot of pure entertainment, Mission: Impossible 2 is a more-than-worthy successor to Brian De Palmas 1996 Mission: Impossible.
