This movie was one of the first movies where he did most of his own stunts, that's him on the motorbike. And the knife to his eye, that was real! No CGI there.
I don't understand why people wouldn't like this one . . . I suppose it's all relative, but I think this has a great villain, a great cameo by Tony Hopkins, excellent stunts, tension ratcheted up to breathless level - and the blinkin' gorgeous Thandie Newton. Creating a virus then making billions off the cure? As if that could happen in the real world, eh? No one would fall for that.
The thing is that Ethan is practically invincible in this one, a stereotypical action hero. All kicks land and all shots hit. It's not very "impossible" and removes all tension. The sequels go back to less kicking, shooting and a lot more spy- and teamwork
People forget this is a John Woo movie, and it's classic John Woo style, lots of a gunfire, white doves, fire and pyro and a car chase and to top it off, to make it even more 2000, Limp Bizkit doing the sound track.
@@woeshaling6421 The plot of 3 is so lazy they never even say what the macguffin does. At least there is a threat in 2. Just because there is less shooting and kicking doesn't mean Ethan is any less accurate or undefeatable when the fighting does occur. I can't think of a time Ethan loses a fight or misses a critical shot in any of them...
@@LordVolkov I didn't mind 3 not explaining the "macguffin". It really doesn't matter what it is, just that it's dangerous. I do think 4 onwards is peak M:I though
"Is he gonna turn into a lion headed, snake tailed thing?" 🤣🤣🤣 No, but you should check out The Relic (1997). It's a creature feature with special effects by Stan Winston 😉
I never got the hate for this movie. It's super-fun, has some great action scenes, and in my opinion it's far better than the first movie in the franchise.
21:21 He said she'd be the "Typhoid Mary" of Oz. Oz is Australian slang for Australia (Oz-tralia) 🇦🇺. Typhoid Mary is the famous source of an outbreak of typhoid fever in New York City. She was a cook seemed healthy but still carried and was able to spread the disease. She worked for many families and made most of them sick.
So many mask pulls in this one. What is this Scooby Doo? "And I would've gotten away with it too if it wasn't for that Ethan Hunt and those meddling IMF agents!"
I forgot this was not a great movie in the franchise . Director John Woo did this movie and his style is obvious. The slow motion takes and spinning moves.
The main Villain in this was really close to being cast as Wolverine to the point they filmed with him but somehow there was a schedule conflict & we got Hugh jackman in the role
Fun Fact: *Dougray Scott* (Sean Ambrose) was hired to play *Wolverine* but had to back out to be in this film. So the part went to *Hugh Jackman* And the rest is history!
The Scottish actor playing the villain, Dougray Scott, is also excellent in the 2002 movie Ripley's Game. His naïve character is the foil to John Malkovich's part; the wonderfully evil Tom Ripley. Malkovich delivers my favourite ever screen interpretation of Tom Ripley, as adapted from Patricia Highsmith's great series of novels. I love your filum reactions.
Dougray Scott was Bryan Singer's original choice to play Wolverine in the first X-Men movie, but had to pull out because he was already obliged to make this movie instead. So thank Mission: Impossible for Hugh Jackman's rise to fame.
Scottish actor, Dougray Scott, was scheduled to play Wolverine in X-Men (2000). However, he was filming this movie that went over-schedule and could not join the X-Men that already started filming. Fox and director replaced Scott with Hugh Jackman. And we already know how that went. :)
Lol...Yeah her expression confirmed what I thought after her reaction to the first yesterday...MI:2 was going to be a disappointment, as it should be. 3 and 4 get better...5 through 8 are back to MI:1 level good.
Shows how much you know Dawn. Tom Cruise did hop off the bike and slide on the concrete while he was riding it. He just had metal plates put on the bottom of his shoes so he can slide. Never doubt Tom Cruise stunts.
Dawn Marie, mission impossible is finding a miserable Scot, worked in bathgate on the 3663 factory, stayed in Queensferry (with a view outta me digs window of the forth road bridge) and LOVED every minute

Dammit Dawn!!! “If he would have shot him he would have shot him up the butt” now the steering wheel of my car and dash, and front of my pants are soaked from spitting up my drink while watching you on my lunch break…. Worth it.
The original idea was to have a different director for every installment. Letting everyone tell their own story in their unique way. Christopher McQuarrie changes that with how successful his first movie was.
My attraction to this film: my business partner's wife, a teacher in Ontario, Canada, was on sabbatical in Canberra Australia in 1998, just before this film came out, so my vicarious Oz experience was still in my mind. Unlike most folks, I find this to be one of my favorites in the franchise.
27:10 - Tom Cruise actually kicked the stunman in the face by accident. You can see Cruise's genuine concerned reaction as he starts to get up. P.S. 26:29 - That was a real knife, held by a real person, just millimeters from Cruise's eye.
Not surprised...the second movie is not up to par. The lowest point that almost killed the franchise. Every movie from the next on is better and better
This film definitely took advantage of the popularity of Matrix at the time but in my honest opinion, it just didn't worked. BUT, from 3 onwards they just keep getting better and better, it's insane how incredible the last 3 films are, Tom never failed to deliver some great and thrilling movies
This is my favorite because I'm bias! I live in Utah about an hour from where the opening scene was filmed!😊 Tom had to make the jump from the ledge 15 times to get it right.
MI:2 was one of the best times I've had in a movie theatre. I did, however, leave my brain in the car. Also I remember thinking that Tom Cruise looks like an adult now.
RE: Mission Impossible Week; Maybe you didn't get the memo yet but hey, "Mission: Impossible" began as a TV series from the mid 1960s until 1973. The bad guy from the last film was one of the main characters on the show, but he wasn't a secret bad guy back then. That's why it was a big shocking twist for Ethan Hunt. Also, the TV series was what gave the franchise the memorable theme which countless school bands have played over the years.
Yeah, real cheesy “ B “ movies like “ Fiend Without A Face,” or some old classics like “ Them ! “ or “ The Incredible Shrinking Man.” And of course “ Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein.” Plus Mel Brook’s “ Young Frankenstein “. ( or was that “Frankenstein “ ??? LOL !!!
@@fionnmaccumhaill3257that's not an indication of quality though is it. Look at princess bride for instance. It did terribly at the box office then got popular from VHS sales and now it's generally considered to be a great film.
You actually could buy a cow for £800! “The cost of a cow in the UK can vary widely depending on several factors, including the breed, age, weight, and purpose (e.g., dairy, beef, breeding). Generally, you can expect the following price ranges: 1. Dairy Cows: Prices for dairy cows, such as Holstein or Jersey breeds, typically range from £1,000 to £2,500 or more, depending on factors like milk production capacity and pedigree. 2. Beef Cattle: Beef cattle prices can vary based on breed and size. For example, a young beef cow (heifer) might cost between £800 and £1,500, while more mature cows can cost significantly more. 3. Breeding Stock: Cows bought for breeding purposes, especially those with high-quality genetics, can be more expensive, sometimes exceeding £3,000 or more. 4. Calves: Younger calves are generally less expensive, with prices often ranging from £200 to £800, depending on breed and health. Prices can also fluctuate based on market conditions, location, and the time of year. It’s a good idea to consult local farmers or agricultural markets for the most accurate and up-to-date prices.”
Dawn, the problem with these first two "Mission: Impossible" films is that they pretty much ignored their source material (The original Mission: Impossible TV show). With the exception of how the missions were delivered (with self-destructing gadgets) and the existence of the oh-so-convincing masks, the first film could have almost been any generic spy movie and this film could definitely have been any old over-the-top action movie. In my opinion, MI3 is when the franchise finally started to find its footing.
The 3rd gets back on track and so on! This one was different 😂 John Woo (the director) focused on the special effects and slow motion action sequences a ton! Entertaining, but not even close to the best of the franchise! Can’t wait for your review for 3!
I said in your first MI watch that this second one is the worse one. Even though I liked the beginning it falls off. Just like the helicopter scene in #1, the whole motorcycle thing in this one is ridiculous. I’m so glad they didn’t bring back John Woo to direct any more. They will get a lot better from here. Two very very good movies dealing with viruses you should watch if you haven’t are Outbreak and Contagion. Both have real good casts and I know you would like them.
If I understood correctly, you're unfamiliar with the term "typhoid Mary". This is a reference to a real person named Mary Mallon who carelessly, if inadvertently, infected dozens of people with typhoid fever. The name has since become a metaphor for anyone who spreads chaos or disaster.
The director here is John Woo. Maybe the best action director ever! His first American film was with Chow Yun Phat, the awesome Replacement Killers! Watch all his films with Chow that are Chinese!
This is the only MI film I'm not happy with!! To much slow motion shots and not enough intellect/gadgets for a Mission impossible movie! Like Hannibal lecter said: "This is mission impossible not mission difficult"! Glad you made it through this one! On to MI3!! Wahoo!! 🎉😁 Thanks for sharing Dawn Marie ❤️💛
RUMOR ⁉️ I've heard that the cliff stunt was not suppose to happen do to DANGER so Tom took a crew himself and did it!! Wouldn't surprise me either way!! Great Reaction Dawn!! You are going to (though you already did 😊) LOVE 💓 #3!!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
M:i-2 is actually one of my top picks of the Hunt films. No sci-fi film level tech. No track & field running. No tiresome "we've been disavowed" BS. There's a bad guy out there, here's your team, get to work.
The nail on the head you hit was expectations - expecting something like the first movie makes sense but it wasn’t meant to be like the first. The director is known for this type of directing (see face/off)… I think that ruined it for a lot of people (even though it made a crapton). I think there’s charm to it being an action movie and I think that the movies down the line are actually more similar to this one than the first movie.
The second is by far the least popular in the entire series. And it's the last on my list of mission impossible movies. But you are gonna love #3. Love your channel keep up the good work. And you are just as beautiful as that girl from the first movie.
This was a John Woo directed movie. He's known for 3 things in his movies. Machine Gun, Martial Arts, and Motorcycles. Heavy on the action, less on the plot and context. The other ones are more complex story lines. BTW John Woo's Hard Boiled is terrific. Though it is a movie dubbed into english and the main character's name is "Tequlia." Very actiony and and lots of shooting and explosions and more shooting and explosions, and motorcycles and machine guns ... that shoot a lot of things that explode.
Dawn Marie I have question I have noticed that you have had snacks while you have been watching some films my Question is what is your favourite Movie snacks? Mine are Humbugs or porkpies and cheese Quavers or a Pizza my favourite Drink is San Miguel
We are watchin Daw and as K said last night one of best bad guys! Our accent suits it well but languag eused not really us. Trainspotting speak in a Scots villain would be more fitting 😂
This movie is just as good as Limp Bizkit, the band. But from this point on the tone changes and all the rest are fun times. But you know this already as you've seen them all now.
Mission Impossible Theme is one of those rare pieces of music written in 5/4 time.This movie is OK but is at the bottom of the MI barrel. The next is better and, starting with #4 the series takes it to the next level.
If it weren't for this film Hugh Jackman would not be the Wolverine Dugray Scott was cast in the role but MI2 went over time shooting and X-Menhad to start so they went with their second choice for the role
Honestly MI2 is a good one, but I don't think it belongs with all the other movies. It's cheesy, the camera work is hilarious and there are many things that doesn't make any sense. Don't get me wrong, it's not the worst film ever, but it is the less cool of the entire franchise.
It's not just you. MI2 is generally looked upon as the black sheep of the movie franchise and the least liked of the series. It's not bad, but it's definitely over the top in not the best ways and not always satisfying. Don't feel bad about not giving it 'best movie ever.'
Actually the only thing that was realistic is the climbing scene in the beginning of the movie. That is doable. (Not advised but can be done and yes, people are climbing without safety concerns or cables)
Also, the knife close to the eye was real and not CGI. Also him jumping off the bike and sliding on the concrete with his shoes was real. They just had metal plates on the bottom of his shoes.
@@michaellynch9550 one thing it’s not CGI an other it’s realistic. It’s not. It’s a very played scene that was carefully crafted and recorded. Try it in real life and won’t work you 99/100 case die.
A lot of faults with this movie. The bits I found "impossible" were how he manages to survive ridiculous things like jumping off a high speed bike with no helmet and being absolutely fine. And there was a comically stupid level of mask reveals, it started to feel like a Naked Gun film or something.
The story’s fine. Thandie Newton is gorgeous. Scott is a fine villain. The actions sequences are too over the top and there’s too little suspense that everything fails. And the masks are overused. Like Hunt happens to have an extra mask of himself and the main henchman handy after their fight?
Dawn the virus fan, you should checkout these films;, in order; “ The Satan Bug,”. “Outbreak,”. “Warning Signs,” and really, REAlLY this last one because it is SO REAL: “ Contagion.” -- BEST VIRUS MOVIE EVER !!! 😎😃👍
A bit off topic but is there any reason we don't get to see the rest of the Deadwood series. If Dawn doesn't answer maybe somebody else knows and can answer
This has all John Woo's hallmarks: white doves, slow motion walk, reflections of the character, back to back shots.

This was a John Woo directed movie. He's known for 3 things in his movies. Machine Gun, Martial Arts, and Motorcycles. Heavy on the action, less on the plot and context. The other ones are more complex story lines.
BTW John Woo's Hard Boiled is terrific. Though it is a movie dubbed into english and the main character's name is "Tequlia." Very actiony and and lots of shooting and explosions and more shooting and explosions, and motorcycles and machine guns ... that shoot a lot of things that explode.
It's actually 4 things he's known for?? Doves😂
@@LukeStarkilla It doesn't start with an "M" tho!
@@TheAes86 Lol I didn't know it had to start with an M! Ok Mother fucking Doves😂
@@LukeStarkillain that case mother fucking slow motion too. I think we can blame John woo for the mess that is Zack Snyder
@@crankfastle8138 wait was MAx Payne before or after Jhn Woo Slow motion? Cause it might be on them.
Dawn Marie I have question I have noticed that you have had snacks while you have been watching some films my Question is what is your favourite Movie snacks? Mine are Humbugs or porkpies and cheese Quavers or a Pizza my favourite Drink is San Miguel
You should definitely watch John Woo's other action movies starting with Face Off and Hard Boiled.
We are watchin Daw and as K said last night one of best bad guys! Our accent suits it well but languag eused not really us. Trainspotting speak in a Scots villain would be more fitting 😂
This movie is just as good as Limp Bizkit, the band. But from this point on the tone changes and all the rest are fun times. But you know this already as you've seen them all now.
If MI2 was that close to BME, then the remaining MIs will be BME...
Your analysis at the end is the very reason this one is considered the poorest of the MI films.
Mission Impossible Theme is one of those rare pieces of music written in 5/4 time.This movie is OK but is at the bottom of the MI barrel. The next is better and, starting with #4 the series takes it to the next level.
John Woo gets no love in this comment section.
If it weren't for this film Hugh Jackman would not be the Wolverine
Dugray Scott was cast in the role but MI2 went over time shooting and X-Menhad to start so they went with their second choice for the role
If you like this movie you should watch 1997's Face/Off directed by the same director John Woo with Nicolas Cage and John Travolta.
Honestly MI2 is a good one, but I don't think it belongs with all the other movies. It's cheesy, the camera work is hilarious and there are many things that doesn't make any sense. Don't get me wrong, it's not the worst film ever, but it is the less cool of the entire franchise.
i like part 2 and 4 the most
Awesome reaction of my favorite Mission Impossible movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
I think you're alone on that one. Most people agree this is the worst one.
@@bossfan49he said “favorite”, is that ok with you?
@@wubranch1dude, it's the internet. You're not allowed an unpopular opinion.
It sure was mission impossible for the 2nd and 3rd sequels to beat/be better than how good the 1st mission impossible movie is.
Have you considered to team up with Merry Cherry?
It's not just you. MI2 is generally looked upon as the black sheep of the movie franchise and the least liked of the series. It's not bad, but it's definitely over the top in not the best ways and not always satisfying. Don't feel bad about not giving it 'best movie ever.'
It's not you.
Part 2 is definitely the worst of the franchise.
Once again people can't appreciate the legend that is John Woo!
@@Hooga89you must love Zack snyder
@@crankfastle8138 I don't see how those two are connected at all.
@crankfastle8138
Not seeing how that connects? Snyder is awful and this is brilliant

Actually the only thing that was realistic is the climbing scene in the beginning of the movie. That is doable. (Not advised but can be done and yes, people are climbing without safety concerns or cables)
Also, the knife close to the eye was real and not CGI. Also him jumping off the bike and sliding on the concrete with his shoes was real. They just had metal plates on the bottom of his shoes.
@@michaellynch9550 one thing it’s not CGI an other it’s realistic. It’s not. It’s a very played scene that was carefully crafted and recorded. Try it in real life and won’t work you 99/100 case die.
at least it was the Tip of his......finger
A lot of faults with this movie. The bits I found "impossible" were how he manages to survive ridiculous things like jumping off a high speed bike with no helmet and being absolutely fine. And there was a comically stupid level of mask reveals, it started to feel like a Naked Gun film or something.
Another great one. Love the outfit. You look devastatingly gorgeous.
All the hate for this one is not consistent with its release.
What does that mean? Box office?
@@crankfastle8138 Audiences weren’t talking about it being bad at the time. People were talking it up.
Ummm.. from that height Nya wouldn't have just... "floated in the water". She would have died on impact.
The story’s fine. Thandie Newton is gorgeous. Scott is a fine villain. The actions sequences are too over the top and there’s too little suspense that everything fails. And the masks are overused. Like Hunt happens to have an extra mask of himself and the main henchman handy after their fight?
Dawn the virus fan, you should checkout these films;, in order; “ The Satan Bug,”. “Outbreak,”. “Warning Signs,” and really, REAlLY this last one because it is SO REAL: “ Contagion.” -- BEST VIRUS MOVIE EVER !!! 😎😃👍
You forgot the most obvious one. YIRUS (1980) 😁
Missed that one, I’ll check it out👍
A bit off topic but is there any reason we don't get to see the rest of the Deadwood series. If Dawn doesn't answer maybe somebody else knows and can answer
If you liked the baby you need to watch Twin Town
