Critic Reviews

  • David Denby, New Yorker
    "Mission: Impossible-Ghost Protocol" is sheer hurtling mechanism-and it's great silly fun.
  • J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader
    As usual with the series, the movie combines a plot line a toddler could understand with gadgets that would baffle an engineering Ph.D.
  • Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine
    I'm thinking it, so I might as well say it: Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol is no Fast Five.
  • Glenn Kenny, MSN Movies
    ...it's pretty much state-of-the-art.
  • Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
    [Bird's] fresh touch gives breathless energy, tremendous excitement and, above all, humor to what could have been a wearying genre exercise.
  • Alonso Duralde, The Wrap
    It's a rousing gasp machine that gives the flagging franchise the kick in the pants it sorely needed, and it marks the most impressive segue from cartoons to features since Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.
  • Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
    Powered by Cruise's moxie, Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol proves that in a Hollywood action-ride culture drenched in fake adrenaline, it's cathartic to encounter the real thing.
  • Tom Long, Detroit News
    Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol is top-notch popcorn entertainment, chock-full of dazzling stunts and heroic moments, played out at a near-hysterical pitch.
  • Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
    Ghost Protocol is a very good thrill ride and Cruise is better than he's been in a long time.
  • Tom Glasson, Concrete Playground
    Finally an action movie that recaptures the fun and adventure of old.
