Latest M:I good for action if nothing else

Mission: Impossible III

Director: JJ Abrams

Cast: Tom Cruise, Keri Russell, Ving Rhames, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Laurence Fishbourne.

Tom Cruise is in all the papers. Does he have a new film coming out?

Well, yes and no. It's the return of pint-sized Ethan Hunt, the energetic special agent, and there's nothing new about it.

Once again, in an action-packed yarn, he's facing down an evil arms dealer and at the same time trying to keep his identity under wraps to protect his girlfriend.

We've seen it all before: the fights, the explosions, the chases, the shoot-outs.

If you like your films full of action but not much else, this will do the trick.

Star Rating: 3/5
