RELEASE DATE: December 6, 2011
Just in time for Brad Bird’s (The Incredibles) Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol! I don’t know about you guys, but I’m a fan of every single one of these films. They’re highly entertaining and full of quality action. Due to having different directors for each movie (Brian De Palma, John Woo, J. J. Abrams), each one has a style of its own.
This new “Extreme” DVD and Blu-ray set contains Mission: Impossible, Mission: Impossible II and Mission: Impossible III. No word on what’s so extreme about them, but check back for details.
Trailers: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 (obviously part 4 is not included with the set)
I still haven’t seen the Abrams one.
I rewatched the Abrams one on blu-ray not long ago to see how it held up. It’s a decent action flick but it owes at least 80% of its existence to “True Lies,” from the main plotline to even lifting the highway bridge action sequence. Phillip Seymour Hoffman steals the movie – it wouldn’t have been nearly as good without him. You wouldn’t think that guy could be intimidating but he plays a fantastic villain in M:I 3.
