Gone are the impossible-to-follow plot twists of the first Mission: Impossible. This is a simple story of a guy, a girl, the bad guys and a plot to wipe out humanity while making a killing in biotech stock. Scottish actor Dougray Scott, who last broke hearts in Ever After, turns up as bio-villain Sean Ambrose. Ving Rhames reprises his role as Cruise's computer sidekick, Luther Stickell, and Anthony Hopkins makes an unbilled--and deliciously despicable--appearance as Cruise's boss...

...plot's just barely there. College student Josh (Meyer) accidentally sends his long-distance girlfriend a videotape of his drunken infidelity, and with three days to intercept the tape, he drags along some friends on the road trip from Ithaca, New York to Austin, Texas. For most of the movie, then, plot becomes irrelevant-the script uses the empty time on the road to pack in as many laughs as possible. You'll watch Josh & Co. try to clear a broken bridge with their rich friend's new car. You'll visit Josh's grandmother's house and visit with...
