 A Movie Review: The Beast Father /mission impossible

The mission impossible is an action movie and it was released globally on 20 June 2021 which had certainly captured the
capture the attention of most movie addicts in the world. It was the second movie directed by Brian De Palma

First thing first, the set of the movie depicted the modern(contemporary) metropolitan of the 21st century. The movie was about
a father’s love and sacrifice for his daughter(was about a spy who helps to keep classified information of his nation.) The main
character, Rick (Ethan) ,who was a notorious gangster(was a assassin), who kills terrorist. One night, his daughter was kidnapped
when she was out to have party with her friends. Rick reached out to his best friend and criminal investigator to discover her
whereabouts .( There was a group of terrorist who had a plan to steal The USA army’s classified information so that they can
conquer the nation and then the higher officers reach out to Ethan to save the nation from terrorist.
On top of that, I like this movie because it is entertaining and has a great balance of action, comedy and suspense. The story
progresses at just the right pace, neither boring audience nor moving too fast where it loses the viewers along the way. Besides, love
the chemistry between , who both acted very well. The action sequences are top-notch, particularly those performed by Rick, played
by Cnan Yew, who has a kickboxing background.
In conclusion, this is one movie you should definitely watch because I can say with confidence that the 112 minutes spent on
this film will fly by in the blink of an eye the perfect popcorn movie to help you take a break and de-stress. I would definitely
recommend this to all action movie lovers as well as fans of Asian movies.(247 words)
