This Week At The Cinema: MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL and THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO

It’s a pretty good weekend if you are off to the cinema following your Christmas festivities, two good movies for you to go see, both of which look pretty good so, without further adieu here they are.

First off it’s Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (MI4), probably one of the most highly anticipated movies of the year and the follow up to MI3 which was a great movie.

Starring: Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg and Paula Patton

The fourth instalment of the Mission Impossible series sees Ethan Hunt return with his IMF team, this time they are on the case of a terrorist named Hendricks.  The team manage to track him to the Kremlin but the mission goes badly wrong causing the US President to
initiate Ghost Protocol, meaning that Hunt’s IMF team are disbanded. Not one to give up Hunt and his team stay on the tracks of Hendricks following him to Dubai and then onto Mumbai.  Problem is they may be to late again.

The movie is receiving brilliant reviews, it’s even being mentioned as one of the best movies this year.  One thing is for sure Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol promises to be full of action and excitement.  Check out the trailer below.

Next up for you this week is The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, a movie which I hadn’t heard to much about until recently.  I only saw the trailer a couple of days ago and have to be honest, it looks really good.

Starring: Daniel Craig, Rooney Mara, Christopher Plummer and Stellan Skarsgard

The movie is based on a Swedish novel, a best selling trilogy in fact.  The story follows a disgraced journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig) as he investigates the disappearance of a wealthy Patriarch’s niece.  Mikael is joined in his investigation by Lisbeth Salander
(Rooney Mara), a young computer hacker.  The further they dig into the investigation the more and more corruption they uncover.

Like I say I only saw this the other day and I do think it looks really good, it definitely gives you a good choice to make at the cinema this weekend considering the other release.
