The love between Hunt and Nya or whatever the hell her name is. Rings as completely false "Oh I love you baby... ... ... lets have sex now" get rid of it. The PG-13 Rating essentially guts the action scenes of any excitement. Woo is a damned wizard in his action -watch "the killer" or to a lesser extent "face/off" to see what i mean- here the action scenes are so chopped up to imply violence instead of showing it -just as bad- that all the power to them is chopped up with it.
There are some moments like the Flemeco Dancers scene that is well directed and show Woo's brilliance in motion. If you like gutted PG-13 movie gun play then this is easily the best out of them.
If Johns hands weren't tied by a rating this would have been a three. Cruise was smart enough to give Woo almost complete control over the project so it is very much a John Woo movie.
I expected more even from this movie, where you can't expect much.
