Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Is Excellent!

Two hits in a row for Tom Cruise. This is what happens when you care about audiences

If Tom Cruise isn't saving us from an alien invasion, he's saving us from terrible movies made by terrible people 🎉🎉

Hayley atwell managed to beat the Hollywood trope of the overly competent heroine. She’s good at what she does, and competent enough to pull off a few surprises- but she needs help, and frankly it makes sense that she would. She’s a thief, not a super spy, and you can see how out of depth she feels. And that doesn’t make her less competent or “at the mercy of men.” She just feels like a real character, and shes all the more brilliant for it.

Pom Klementieff was incredible in this movie, I was very surprised how good she is. A genuinely menacing and dangerous female villain.

Directors : Let's use CGI Tom : I am CGI ( Cruise Going Insane)

It’s very refreshing to watch a movie where actors are standing in actual locations.

This was the first movie I’ve been to in a long time where people in the theatre were actually enjoying it- like actual laughs and screams from audience. It was also the first time in a long while where people clapped afterwards. I think that says a lot about how great this movie is

I could agree to everything Drinker say about the movie except for the part of Benji and Luther getting sidelined. What are the "super powers" of Benji and Luther again? Both are good hackers but this time they are dealing with their worse nightmare - AI. Yet once Benji knew they have been played, he was able to improvise as a good IMF agent would. In addition, it is Luther who reminds Ethan the 2 things that he is suppose to remember so as to complete his mission. After their equipment have been compromised, they had to devise a setup so remote that AI cant reach them. This makes it more plausible their performance seem so limited in Part 1. As a as an ex-communications personnel, I am especially hyped to see how they are going to use legacy methods (they already mentioned one of them in this film) to overcome the advanced AI in Part 2.

As a kid growing up in the 80s I never would have guessed that Tom Cruise would be the biggest action star in the world forty years later. But here we are. Keep it going Tom.

I never would have believed that a sequel to a film series that started in the mid 90s and based on an old TV show from the 60s starring a leading man who is in his 60s would be one of the worthwhile event films of 2023...but here we are

Amazed that Cruise has been playing this character for 27 years and has the physicality to pull it off. It's like Sean Connery playing Bond until 1989. Fun fact, Connery was two years younger in 1989 than Cruise is now.

I liked that before this movie, as with Maverick, Tom addressed the audience in a brief filmed intro and thanked everyone for being there in the theater. Great touch, and it reminds people that we're the reason movie stars stay employed.

A friend of mine went to see this film when it opened in Toronto. Little did he or the audience know that Cruise was at the screening and when the movie was over and the lights came on he stood up and thanked everyone for coming out to see the movie. No big camera production about it, just him in the theatre thanking the viewing audience.

Reasons to love this movie: 1. Good story 2. Amazing action scenes 3. Absolute blast to watch with friends 4. Good characters 5. Women aren't beating men twice their size.

I loved the Entity. He is a perfect villain to end the saga. A villain who returns to analog instruments, the most precious resource. And he puts Ethan at 100% of his abilities.

I think people also recognize the amount of craftsmanship that Tom brings to the table, and are rewarding him for it.

It's really quite astounding that at age 60 he's having among the most successful action films of his entire career. Kudos Tom.

Let us give props to this movie for having 4 awesome females in 1 movie without any forced bullshit, when rest of the Hollywood hasn't made even one in such a long time... 😆

The very best part of this movie is at the very beginning where he and his producer thank the audience for coming to see this movie in a theater. FANTASTIC! What a class act. Thank you Tom Cruise.

I can't believe that Barbenheimer have been more successful this summer at the box office. There's no figuring people??? I have seen MI7 five times and still not bored yet.
