John Carter - difficult to follow

Mirror Mirror wallpaper - more playful

Mirror Mirror wallpaper - the connective tissue

Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol - the motion picture (in color!)
Yesterday I happened to watch the above-mentioned motion picture. I do believe that no one reads movie reviews, but still want to share a couple of lines with thousands of my readers.
The Plot
Just like in any spy movie, we got bad guys and good guys, and also guys who are shifting from good to bad and vice versa. The film is about their eternal struggle, this and a nuclear bomb. Everything ends well, bad guys are punished, good guys have fun.
Locations
Moscow, Dubai, India.
Russians are military and not very bright. Spoken Russian sounds good enough. As to the Kremlin being blown up, I think this might be photoshopped - I've checked today and it's still where it should be.
Russian prison doesn't look too convincing. As to Bogdan, he's even less convincing and a strange character indeed, absolutely useless. I'd prefer not to see him in the next installment of the franchise.
Military guys look bad. Period. Real military Russians do not look or behave in such riiculous ways. Also, it's hard to infiltrate Kremlin, even for Tom Cruise with lots of rubber faces.
The telephone booth - man, there are no such booths in Russia any more. These are collector stuff, rare and expensive!
The shooting in the middle of Moscow is impressively shot (heh) but local police forces are far more professional in reality. Also, police officers rarely behave like Vladimir Mashkov does (though sometimes they may).
Dubai. Sandstorm and tall buildings. Also, there's a sort of magnetic energy that ruins the power of magical glue gloves.
Sandstorm is one thing I wouldn't love to confront in real life. Too much sand, to my liking. Might spoil your beer (let's say hello to Raoul Duke).
India. Luxury and stupid media tycoons, and a giant PC with a HUGE cooler. Also, lots of cars to be crushed in the course of saving the world.
On the whole - not bad. I'm thinking of wallpapering some of the moments from the movie.
(I do know no one reads movie reviews)
