Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning

7.2 - I know right now I need a second watch, because regardless of the IMAX screen & the loud action, I was way too tired at my 11pm showing to fully lock in for the first hour or so.

When this was just a clip show of the other 7 movies I watched over the last week, I was not feeling it. But in the back 2/3 when it turned into classic MI big action & decent suspense I enjoyed myself for the most part.

I wish some of the new characters got more time. I still don’t love the idea of “The Entity” as much as I did more of the non-faceless villains, but this story rounded it out a bit better. I’m split on how much I liked some of the revisited stories, referential twists, & some of the semi-forced callbacks.

Overall, I think it’s a serviceable & clean closure to a 30 year story that does what it can (or does too much?) to be accessible to new fans, but it’s unfortunately near the bottom of the MI series as a whole.

3/5⭐️
first half was so boring im sorry i fr could not. Toooo much yapping. second half was dope👍 lol

Plot is nonsense and first half of movie is legitimately boring. I’m not convinced anyone cares for the characters or plot in these movies but it doesn’t matter because Tom Cruise is the last movie star (yeah I said it) and the action is awesome. Few legit jaw dropping sequences (one underwater segment is sooooo cool) make this worth seeing in theaters. Good movie? Not really. Great and fun watch if you’re into this kind of thing and know what you’re getting into? You bet 🎯

7.7/10

Wow this was super disappointing. I liked all of the other MI movies but this one was really confusing and I just never really got into it. They did do a good job of wrapping up the franchise and bringing the plot back to the past movies, but this was super mid for me and definitely my least favorite of all of them.
