Generally speaking I've enjoyed the "Mission Impossible" films. I believe Tom Cruise has shone in the lead role, with a range of adventurous, action packed stories, worth telling. Its regrettable then that I can't find anything overly positive to say about "Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning." I found the script for this film incoherent. From a storytelling perspective, it wanders about like a inebriated night clubber on a Saturday night. Its not helped either by a weak core premise and villains who are, put simply, really none too interesting. On the upside Cruise does his best and the action scenes are polished, as you would expected from a big budget film. In summary, to my mind the least inspiring film, in the Mission Impossible franchise. Maybe its time it had its cinematic "final reckoning" and was shelved, for the foreseeable future.
Read the whole review on TMDBHow can we have a final reckoning when the last bit of the movie is dedicated to letting us know that Ethan Hunt is definitely still important and definitely will be back doing stuff. Give it up, Tom. There are some bad CG effects in here. Unforgivable. This movie is long and full of dumb shit that doesn't matter. Everyone knows everyone because Ethan is so good at being better than everyone but we need to know this through a bunch of flashbacks. They had so much time, in fact, we get another bomb, another self sacrifice...wait...3 people sacrifice oh my god. 3 people we've never met and don't care about are going to die by the second bomb...everyone just clipping wires and removing nodes like it don't matter! Oh wait, everyone lives! Thank god. I'm glad that took about 30 minutes of movie run time. Now for 30 minutes of flying. Don't think I just spoiled the movie. There are about 300 more minutes for you to experience!
Read the whole review on TMDB<em>'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning'</em> is up there for being the most I've enjoyed a M:I movie, it's certainly in the top four anyway. It probably is a touch overlong, though I can't say I ever felt bored through the 2hrs 50mins. It's packed with action, so no surprise. Tom Cruise is, as we've seen across the prior seven installments, excellent in the role of Ethan Hunt. Those with him here are very good, but there's no doubt Cruise is the glue. Speaking of the rest, Ving Rhames gets a nice arc, while Hannah Waddingham and Tramell Tillman have good bits. It was never* one of my favourite franchises, but I still enjoyed every entry of <em>'Mission: Impossible'</em> to a fairly high level; fwiw, I scored every release at 8/10 - a very consistent series, evidently. Happy I (belatedly) got to see one of 'em on the big screen too. <i>*assuming this is the end - it probably isn't, knowing how studios tend to be but we'll see</i>
