It's missing the emotional resonance that JJ Abrams brought to the series that, I think, made the third film the second best of the series (after the first), but Ghost Protocol is still a solid and competently directed action film. Like a Bond film, the movie keeps a quick pace, jumping from action scene to action scene and exotic location to exotic location. The chemistry between the IMF team is likable and carries a lot of the lighter scenes. The action is impressive, particularly a heart-stopping sequence on the world's tallest building, which Cruise reportedly performed himself.
