The third is my favorite because of Phillip Seymour Hoffman. He made a great villain.

when I first saw MI3 I made the statement that PSH might have been the best villain I had seen in a theater and I stick with it to the day. The scene when he is tied to the chair and he just strait faced tells Cruise that he is going to find his wife and hurt her and then kill her in front of him is one of the best scenes in a long time.

I just got back from MI5 and it didn't disappoint. It was really good from start to finish with enough breaks in between the action to let you settle back in.

Rebecca Ferguson is just amazing eye candy and she was pretty awesome in this movie.

Pegg was really good in his role as Benji again.

Mother fricking Jeremy Renner. You forget how good he can be in a movie when you see him be under utilized in Marvel movies and then he pops back up like this. Dude is really good in it.

Finally, I know people want to hate Cruise but the dude pops out solid movies one after another. This is no different. The action scenes looked great being that most are practical effects instead of a shite ton of green screen stuff.
