With Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, we're getting the best Bond movie since Casino Royale in 2006.

Exciting, intelligent and well filmed. [Full review in Spanish]

Alejandro Alemán
El Universal
Tightly paced, ambitiously conceived, superbly executed, and greatly enriched by the instincts and wits of its producer-star [Tom] Cruise.

Tim Brayton
Antagony & Ecstasy
Perhaps it's a shade lighter on the mind-warping trickery-within-chicanery effects seen in previous Missions, but on the other hand the interplay between the characters achieves a lightness of touch rare in your average blockbuster.

Could there be a more surprisingly pleasing spy franchise than this action adventure series? It doesn't allow James Bond or Jason Bourne to take all the accolades.

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation lives up to the franchise name, presenting us with a successful outcome to the seemingly impossible mission of producing a truly excellent summertime action flick.

[Rogue Nation] could be the best Mission Impossible film.

Ultimately, it's another utterly gripping entry into a franchise that has really found its feet... dangling from the outside of a plane.

Rogue Nation is terrific fun, the best action movie of the summer without Mad Max in the title. It's also, arguably, the best Mission: Impossible movie, impressive for the fifth installment in any movie series.

There was probably more spectacular action in the last film but this one is just as much fun and could feasibly make a star of 31-year-old Ferguson, who steals scenes while everyone else is trying to steal memory sticks.

Thankfully, watching [Tom Cruise] do all of this is still great fun.

No one should come to a Mission: Impossible movie for anything but those set pieces, and director Christopher McQuarrie delivers some rich ones this time around, with strong assistance from cinematographer Robert Elswit.

AUDIENCE REVIEWS FOR MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE ROGUE NATION
½
A burst of celluloid adrenaline, "M:I - Rogue Nation" is thrilling from beginning to end without sacrificing story.
This time around, Ethan Hunt and his crew are on the run from the CIA, following disbandment as he tries to prove the existence of the Syndicate, an international criminal consortium.
Like usual, Tom Cruise fully commits to his portrayal of Ethan Hunt and in "Rogue Nation" manages to astound with his commitments to stunts and an occasional well-placed zinger.
His supporting team gels excellently with Cruise, but this time around it's Rebecca Ferguson that breaks out and almost steals the movie with her seductive, athletic portrayal.
"Rogue Nation" continues the "M:I" renaissance with thrilling results.

The Mission: Impossible series continues to surge in Rogue Nation. The sequel's innovative action-sequences, thrilling story and performances is exhilarating and surprising; continuing to breath life in this improving franchise. 4.5/5
Eugene Bernabe Super Reviewer
It's official, Ghost Protocol has rebooted MI into a smashing action/espionage success with this follow up.
RN is everything you need in an action film. Great set pieces, smart plot, clever humor, somewhat relateable/humane characters, a robust competent cast, good direction...
I almost feel like it's too similar in quality to GP though. The pacing, action, dialogue, even the way each character moves almost seems surgical now. Don't get me wrong it's a great film and like I said, everything you'd ever NEED but I think we've hit a level of stagnation here.
There's no more wow factor, there's nothing iconic that you would recall for years on down the road. Rogue Nation will be remembered by most as a blur of exceptional action film making...
I believe the next MI film will need more personal, resonating character moments from the IMF crew if it's going to succeed.

Drake Tsui Super Reviewer
There's not a lot to think about here, just your typical summer motion picture thrill ride, but it's got the goods insofar as that goes. Cruise supplies the action, Simon Pegg provides the light buddy comedy, but the film really belongs to Rebecca Ferguson who purposefully is given equal footing with the man in this. Hell, she saves the hero in this. Twice. Are you ready for that? And she dances backward. In heels. She's the break out star here, and the reason to watch, (after the action set pieces). All systems go.
