Trivia
The writing credits in early promotional material read: "Written by Christopher McQuarrie", but McQuarrie received sole screenplay credit and shared story credit with Drew Pearce following an arbitration conducted by the Writers Guild of America. See more »Goofs
During the chase with the motor cyclists in Morocco, the engine of the BMW driven by Tom Cruise sounds like a BMW E92 M3 which uses a naturally aspirated 4 liter V8. The BMW F30 M3 actually driven in the film has a 3.0 BiTurbo straight 6 cylinder engine that sounds completely different, especially since BMW decided to use a sound module in the F30 M3/F32 M4 to artificially increase the engine sound.

This Is What An Action Film Should Be
I saw this film on an
IMAX screen and I'm glad I did. Although IMAX cameras were not used in
the filming, I think the larger screen creates a more immersive
experience and the sound was spectacular. But this film would be great
in any format.
"Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation" is one of the best action films I have ever seen. The story is clever and action packed. The photography is amazing and the music is fantastic.
Much has been made of the stunt work, especially that done by Tom Cruise himself. It did not disappoint. And the action and chase sequences are as exciting as any I have seen.
We can thank the writing for the well-defined and engaging characters. Some Bond films have villains that are rather cartoonish, but in MI:RN the danger feels real, helping to drive the suspense.
The female lead, Rebecca Ferguson, deserves special mention. Her portrayal of Ilsa Faust is a wonderful blend of intelligence, beauty and strength and definitely one of the best in any action film. I can only hope she shows up in the next installment. some of the credit goes to the writers who created the character.
In all, this film offers everything you want in an action film and deserves a "10" for its place in the genre.
