Edit Title:
Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol The Quatro Cut
Original Title:
Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
Information about this edit:
The Quatro Cut is a light handed edit of the generally great Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. About 3 minutes in total are removed completely. In addition the original opening to the film is completely reworked to get the viewer directly into the main story and bypass one of the worst acted sequences in the film.
I really enjoyed this movie the first time I watched it, I was very happy that it was essentially a continuation of the successful trilogy that began 15 years prior and not a typical Hollywood reboot. There just seemed to be a few nagging problems that kept taking me out of the narrative. These problems seemed to boil down to a couple bad casting/ bad storyline choices.
The first issue I chose to correct was the film's opening sequence set in Budapest. This sequence stars Josh Holloway of LOST fame and Paula Patton. Josh turns in a very made for TV performance in these scenes and it really took me out of the film. This sequence wraps up on an odd sort of secret lovers scene between Josh and Paula that was very made for TV and seemed out of place since we barely know these characters. This sequence has no bearing on the film until after the prison sequence in Moscow so instead of visiting the sequence twice in the first 15 minutes of the film, I have just cut it and replaced it where it falls naturally.
The other major scene correction occurs at the party in Mumbai. Here we find Anil Kapoor playing a very made for TV Indian billionaire character. His interaction with Paula Patton has been cut down to the essentials removing primarily the hide-and-go-seek game. Also cut here is the odd romanticism inserted between Cruise's character and Paula's character. We spend most of the movie wondering what happened to Ethan's wife making this feel very out of place.
Other than that there are a couple blink and you'll miss it corrections and the number 4 added to the movie's title to remind viewers that this is in fact a continuation not a reboot of the Mission Impossible franchise. Enjoy.
