IMF agent Ethan Hunt has been sent on a mission to retrieve and destroy
the supply of a genetically created disease called 'Chimera'. His
mission is made impossible due to the fact that he is not the only
person after samples of the disease. He must also contest with a gang of
international terrorists headed by a turned bad former IMF agent who
has already managed to steal the cure called 'Bellerophon' and now need
'Chimera' to complete their grand plan of infecting the whole world. In
order to infiltrate and locate the terrorist group he relies on the help
of an international thief Nyah of whom he quickly develops a love
interest. Time is not only running out for Agent Hunt to find and
destroy 'Chimera' before the terrorists get their hands on it, but he
must also find 'Bellerophon' so as to save his love interest who has
already become infected by the disease from a terrible and rapid death.
User Reviews
Not nearly as bad as a lot of people say it is
Anyone who watches
movies like this and expects fully realistic stunts and a bulletproof
plot is a quite frankly an idiot. If you want to give this movie 1 star ,
where the hell does Arnie's "Commando" come on the ratings of "laws of
realism do not apply" films and as for any of the Bond films when it
comes to a realistic plot... well. Personally, this film is an exciting
action movie with plenty of visually awesome stunts, quality soundtrack
and a couple of nice surprises. Where this film does loose points with
me though, is the cheesy slow mo scenes and lines. It really does badly
interrupt an otherwise great action movie, which you should see.
