Mission: Impossible III, or how J.J. rescued the franchise

I love Mission Impossible II. In my opinion John Woo directed an action masterpiece with that film. But unfortunately we live in the world where critics have no appreciation for good action. Come on, Oscars for stunts are just now started to be considered. So... in an unfortunate set of events MI2 was a critical failure. Too dissimilar to what Bryan De Palma did on the first picture, they said. J.J. Abrams with his feature film directorial debut decided to fix everything, while still making a movie that action fans would enjoy. How?

I saw an interview where Quentin Tarantino praises the 1980 Hitchcockian Bryan de Palma film Dressed to Kill. And now after actually watching it myself, I can totally understand why.

Zack Snyder is the main force behind little 2011'th feminist, action, adventure, war / mental-institute, melodrama, about dancing prostitutes, Sucker Punch. He is the one credited with the story. He is the producer, the director and the co-writer. So it is through and through a Zack Snyder film.
