If you really want to see John Woo at this finest (and by finest, I mean "really lousy crap"), rent "Mission Impossible: 2". I would say it's worse than Broken Arrow. It's a junk food festival for the brain. I can at least recall some scenes of Broken Arrow; Mission Impossible: 2 just whishes right through your head, leaving nothing behind.

The only thing I really remember about it was the chick sidekick park ranger, aside from being a hot number, just also happened to be a martial arts expert who can wrestle around in the desert without getting dirty or messing up her hair. That, and the fact that every time the bad guy (Travolta) appeared, the same couple of guitar bars from "The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly" would play, just to remind you it was the bad guy making an appearance. Ugh! What a waste of celluloid. I rank it somewhere around "Hudson Hawk" on my scale of all-time bad movies. I never saw MI2. After "Broken Arrow", I made it a point to avoid Woo movies, so as to not waste my limited movie funds on crap. I can't wait to see (rhetorically speaking) what garbage he conjurs with Affleck as the raw material.

Mission Impossible 2 is possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. I truly believe it was made simply so Tom Cruise could do some stunts.

I didn't think any movie could be worse than Robin Williams' 'Toys', but MI2 was.

And I have heard rumors there will be a MI3.
