The rabbits foot was a plot device known as a 'McGuffin' made famous by alfred Hitchcock, what it is is not important- the circumstances that arise from the different parties trying to get their hands on it is what matters. Would you have liked the film more if at one point someone had said the Rabbits foot is a nuclear bomb or chemical weapon? The point was that it was really bad.
Overall I like the movie alot, I can't really compare it to the original because the first M:I movie wasn't really an action movie but more a kind of espionage thriller. As for the sequel though, M:I-3 kicked it's ass all over the place. I'll admit I always like the last 20 or so minutes of M:I-2 with the motorbike chase etc but up until then it's just BOOOORRRR-ING, absolutely NOTHING happened. I can't understand how anyone could think that M:1-3 wasn't a huge step up.
