Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

I really was surprised to like Mission Impossible 4. I had zero intention of seeing it (just as I have skipped all the other MI sequels), until a couple of days before when I learned that Brad Bird directed. Sold. And it's a win. Totally fun. More of a James Bond movie than anything, but is Mission Impossible really any more than a James Bond genre?

Reportedly, Bird had to jump through the hoop of saving MI4 as his first live action film before they would give him the project he really wanted.

Consider it jumped.
