Ghost Protocol had a great balance between interesting story and thrilling action sequences. Rogue Nation isn't as balanced, it's more: elaborate storyline with a bit of fun. More story is an upgrade of course but I wasn't really captivated or interested in it. The tone is so different... more serious (thank god Simon Pegg was there at least), less comedy, less action and so much less memorable. The opening scene on the plane was amazing, motorcycle chase was done right (unlike M:II), the few action set pieces looked amazing, score is probably the best it's ever been and Sean Harris is a memorable villain. Third act didn't do it for me, feels out of shape and uneventful. I was dying for a bit of spice.
