MI2 was better than this tbh.

2 and 3 showed us the difference between film directing versus TV directing.

It was 2006 and The Bourne series was ruling the "spy action movie" game so they had to try and follow suit. Plus it was directed by Abrams. Personally shaky cam never bothered me a whole lot, and I even think there are times it adds to the film. But yeah, it would have been better if it was toned down.

All that being said MI:III is a great film and isn't ruined by the fvcking camera angles. Give it another shot and just pay attention to the story. 

Look at that turtle go bro! 

I don't remember any shaky cam in this movie. Maybe the editing was rather "quick" and caused you to be disoriented, but personally I had no trouble at all following the action. If you really want to see a quality action movie being ruined by frenetic and disorienting editing, watch Quantum Of Solace (2008); that one actually creates headaches (which is a shame, because I actually liked the story, the plot, the sets/locations and the characters very much).

That being said, personally I rank M:I-3 the lowest of the first four M:I-movies, (I haven't seen Rogue Nation yet); I found the movie quite underwhelming.

Nobody notices “shaky cam”. It’s a tired, bs complaint.
