Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation (2015)

This is a very good movie if you have liked the other movies in this series.  That means that you have to accept a few leaps of faith about espionage and the inner workings of government, the combined level of omniscience and paranoia that drive the plot and have to be accepted without question in order to enjoy the movie, and if you can do so, you will be happy with the outcome.  If not, skip it immediately.

Everyone meets their expectations in terms of character, starting with Tom Cruise, and including the wonderful Simon Pegg, who is his usual leavening influence on an action movie, and he is a nice addition to the team.  Sit back and enjoy the action, and don't think too deeply while doing so.
