I just took a look at Mission Impossible 5. What a joke! It’s exactly the same as Mission Impossible 1,2,3 and 4. I’m not going to even bother with a Spoiler Alert — you already know this crap. Tom Cruise is a good guy that everybody thinks is a bad guy. He chases somebody. Somebody chases him. There’s general destruction, mayhem; things explode and Tom Cruise does some WTF impossible stuff. Roll credits. I must be getting old. I remember a time when Hollywood at least pretended they were selling you a different movie. Check it out. These came out in the same year and they’re exactly the same movie!

Writers never go on vacation. They just turn off their computers and hide for a while. That’s exactly what I’m doing for the next couple of weeks. Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Kind regards,
All set to rock the vacation? Enjoy and have fun!
