Maybe Go
Don’t get me wrong, the movie is not bad. It is just too long. At 2 hrs. 27 min. it is 30 min. too long – please not another chase sequence!
This is a direct sequel to the previous film, with weasel-faced, nasal-voiced Sean Harris reprising the brilliant villain Solomon Lane. Rebecca Ferguson features again as compromised MI5 agent Ilsa, Ving Rhames , Alex Baldwin and Simon Pegg are IMF support, and Michelle Monaghan is there to be in jeopardy. Angela Bassett and Henry Cavill represent the CIA and Vanessa Kirby plays a pleasingly questionable mercenary intermediary.
The story is involved – not difficult to understand, but a bit on the serpentine side. But it does provide a vehicle for some, as always, excellent action sequences. A motorcycle chase through Paris and a rooftop chase in London are stunningly choregraphed and photographed, but I felt that the climactic action sequence too long.
You know whether you like this sort of movie or not. And, if you do, you’re in for a treat with this one.
