Camera angles in Mission Impossible 3 are used as examples of power. When the shot is showing Ethan Hunt, who is trying to convince Davian that he has no idea as to what the "Rabbit's Foot" is, the camera is looking down upon him, showing that he is the submissive one and is not in a position of power.
Whereas the other character, Owen Davian, is the agressor in this scene, demanding to know where "The Rabbit's foot" is. So the director sets the camera slightly lower, showing him to be taller and in more of a position of power.
This sets the viewer up to believe that the movie will mostly focus on Ethan Hunt and his struggle to gain the ascendency and take down Davian.
