Mission Impossible III and Last Holiday

Movies 2006
Since the 2005 Academy Awards I've taken a bit of a movie break. But not totally...
Mission Impossible 3- B-
It's exactly what you expect. It's an action thriller that attempts to have some emotion. It does have both action and emotion, but both are only half-hearted. You may walk out remembering some great action moments, but the characters are all fairly forgettable, except Philip Seymour Hoffman who plays a great bad guy. As far as Cruise action movies go, the trilogy has done a good job, and will most likely be remembered for years to come, but I'm hoping this will be the last time I have to sit through the ridiculous extended slow-motion scenes.
Last Holiday- D+
Last Holiday is a cliche about a single women stuck working retail and eating Lean Cuisine. She finds out she's going to die and decides that she will take the holiday she's always wanted and live life to the fullest. If you intend to do the same, don't waste your time or money on this movie. There's not much that's redeeming about Queen Latifah's (Oscar Nominee) performance, but I have to admit that there is something contagious about watching her. I'm hoping one day she might find a good script that isn't so cliche and a director that might try to say something slightly interesting.
