Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol The IMAX Experience Previews 14 December 2011 at SHAW THEATRES LIDO IMAX

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, the highly anticipated fourth installment of the action epic Mission: Impossible franchise from Paramount Pictures, begins previews on 14 December 2011 Wednesday  at SHAW THEATRES LIDO IMAX and opens worldwide on December 21, 2011. Through proprietary IMAX®DMR technology, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol The IMAX Experience has been digitally re-mastered into the unparalleled image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience®. With crystal-clear images, laser-aligned digital sound and maximized field of view, IMAX provides the world's most immersive movie experience.

According to Brad Bird, director of Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol: "To me, the best example of showmanship now is IMAX.  I wanted the first people that see the film to see it big with a sharp image and great sound systems, so when they went out and talked about the movie they saw, we would know that they had seen it at its best." (Los Angeles Times, 11/6/11)

Tickets go on sale from 7 December 2011. The film also features approximately 30 minutes of scenes shot with IMAX cameras. These specific sequences will expand to fill the entire screen, exclusively in IMAX, and further immerse the audience in the explosive action and vast scope of the film. One featured sequence includes the unbelievable stunt performed by Tom Cruise as he scaled the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, providing an up-close, you-are-there experience as only IMAX can.
