In the run up to Mission Impossible Fallout I rewatched the previous films but kept an eye out for fanedits that would address my issues with some of the other films. This was one of the ones I chose (the other being MI II...) and while I didn't have much of an issue at all when Ghost Protocol was originally released, after reading over Jerrick's subtle cut choices I thought it would heighten this film. This it did, highly recommended.

Ghost Protocol (MI4) is to me the strongest in the, at present, quintet that is the Mission Impossible movie series. The utterly brilliant Dubai passage, where the tension is constant from arrival to departure, beats anything the very good fifth film (Rogue Nation) throw at me (though the opera sequence is grand). What both these movies do smartly, besides the nonstop thrill, is to refrain from the romance usually inserted into other movies with the aid of a crowbar. Seldom do I find the forth (AND fifth) sequel in a series to be superior to its prequels...

Then Jerick comes along and improves it.

All the cuts are done masterfully and are invisible. The enjoyment is heightened, the narrative improved. Thus, this edit enhances my thoughts regarding MI4. A wonderful edit executed to great effect considering the few trims made. The Budapest opening is moved and reworked into a fitting use; no forced romance whatsoever; less Bollywood. Solid work.

I have no reason to watch the original in the future. This is it. Well done, Jerick!

I thoroughly enjoyed this edit. I meant to catch this in theaters and just never got around to seeing it. I picked it up pretty cheaply and watched it a month ago for the first time in preparation for Rogue Nation. I thoroughly enjoyed it. You pretty much picked off the two or three weak spots in the movie and fixed them. This is a pretty light edit but it manages to strengthen the narrative (by not having me ask out loud who the f#&% everyone is like I did when I saw the theatrical cut) and getting rid of the Cruise/Patton sexual tension which muddled everything with his wife. I really liked the theatrical, this is just a bit better. Replacing my disc with this one.
