Each picture from the Mission Impossible franchise differs in its atmosphere and its unique plot. In the film “Mission Impossible-2”, the actors played a story in the center of which is a unique virus created by a Russian scientist. Will IMF agent Ethan Hunt manage to prevent a global catastrophe this time?
The creators of the picture, a short plot
Each part of the Mission Impossible franchise is filmed by a new director. Accordingly, each part has its own specifics and its own “chips”. The second film was shot by a Chinese man, John Wu, who had previously shot action films with Jean-Claude Van Damme and John Travolta.
Wu has characteristic tricks that he tries to use in each of his paintings. Firstly, the director is not breathing evenly for Beretta 92F. Secondly, before the denouement of the film, he likes to show white doves in the frame. The “Mission Impossible-2” was no exception.
Actors during the franchise moved mainly from the first part. The only thing was that Ethan Hunt's “girlfriend” was replaced, as well as the main antagonist, because the previous one was killed.
This time, the super agent Hunt is confronted by his former colleague, Sean Ambrose, who stole a dangerous virus and decided to infect the whole Earth with them. The complexity of the situation is that Ambrose knows how Hunt and the IMF department work, so she always goes one step further. However, the hero of Tom Cruise is so simply not going to give up.

Tom Cruise is an unchanging lead in the franchise. Moreover, from the very beginning he acted as its producer.
What events is rich in “Mission Impossible-2”? Actors, as always, shoot a lot, fight and even manage to fall in love with each other. As for
Ethan Hunt, at the very beginning of the film he promised himself to stop Ambrose with all his might. But he will have to make a great sacrifice for this.
The IMF team is being guided by a certain Naya Nordoff Hall. She is a rather adroit adventurer and at first glance Ethan liked it. He contacts her, but then receives orders from his superiors to send Naya to Ambrose: it turns out that they once had an affair.
Ethan realizes that his former colleague is not a fool and that he will be able to figure out a spy in a few days. But not only Naya is at stake, so Hunt has to put up with it. And even when a girl is infected with a deadly virus, until the last moment he tries to save her.

The main antagonist of the film, Sean Ambrose, prudent, cruel and suspicious. He manages to crank up a huge scam: get the most dangerous virus, take over the shares of a company that produces a vaccine against him and fool Ethan Hunt himself. But the scriptwriters decided to spice up the plot, so they prescribed for the hero Dugrey Scott “a little weakness” - a woman named Naya.
Initially, Ambrose really believes that Nordoff Hall returned to him of her own free will. But then a series of unpleasant accidents occurs for him and he immediately calculates who the mole is in his team. Sean doesn’t kill a woman with her own hand, but introduces a deadly virus into her bloodstream, which destroys the man in 20 hours. In the final, the hero Dugrey Scott, of course, was defeated, and the thief was cured with a vaccine. Thus ended the adventures of Ethan Hunt in the film "Mission Impossible-2."
Actors Cruz and Scott on the screen played enemies. However, in life, Tom and Dougray are on friendly terms. It was Cruz who invited his friend to the project.
