There is a theory that action is exciting and dialogue is boring. Modern high-tech action sequences are just the same damn thing over and over again: high-speed chases, desperate gun battles, all possible modes of transportation, falls from high places, deadly deadlines, exotic locations and characters who hardly ever say anything interesting.
"M:I:III," in which Cruise resurfaces as Impossible Mission Force agent Ethan Hunt, with his most lucrative persona, that of the young, virile man of action whose determined scowl is surpassed in attractiveness only by his boyish grin. The director, television wunderkind J.J. Abrams, may need to work on his wide shots.
