It is a wildly silly, wildly entertaining adventure which periodically gives us a greatest-hits flashback montage of the other seven films in the M:I canon - but we still get a brand new, box-fresh Tom-sprinting-along-the-street scene, without which it wouldn’t be M:I.

The Final Reckoning, final or not, presents us with a fascinating contradiction: Ethan Hunt is both a pure singular and a state of mind. He’s cinema as the madman dreamer’s paradise.

Ending a saga like Mission Impossible after nearly thirty years is no easy task. Dead Reckoning arrives with that challenge and, although there were doubts about whether it would live up to expectations, the truth is that the farewell has bite. There’s epic scale, there’s emotion, and above all, sequences that more than justify the nearly three-hour runtime, even if at times the film feels a bit longer than **** opening leans into intrigue and espionage, reminiscent of the franchise’s early days. Conspiracies, betrayals, constant suspicion… all wrapped in that atmosphere where nothing is what it seems. It’s true that the pace slows down in places and one feels the story could have been told with fewer detours, but that calm eventually pays off: it sets the stage so that when the action erupts, the spectacle is **** then comes Tom Cruise, once again proving he’s still Hollywood’s last true action hero. He runs, jumps, clings to anything he can, and does it with a conviction that’s contagious. At over sixty, he’s still determined to make the audience hold their breath with every stunt. More than a spy, his Ethan Hunt has become a symbol of resilience, someone who never gives up even when everything is against **** supporting cast delivers, though it’s true that some secondary characters feel underused. The nods to the past and nostalgic cameos will make longtime fans smile, but certain roles deserved more room to shine. Still, whenever the camera focuses back on Cruise, the film regains all its **** climax is pure spectacle. Underwater scenes, impossible chases, and aerial sequences that feel out of this world. McQuarrie shows he knows how to orchestrate chaos like few others, keeping the tension and excitement alive until the very last second. The story may not hold many surprises, but when the action burns with this kind of intensity, little else **** the end, Dead Reckoning doesn’t reinvent the formula, but it does manage to say goodbye with dignity. It’s a closing chapter that honors the saga, blending nostalgia with pure spectacle and making it clear that Ethan Hunt leaves the stage at the very top. For those who watched the first mission back in July 1996, it’s impossible not to leave the theater with the feeling of having been part of a journey as excessive as it was unforgettable.

Once “M:I-TFR” kicks into action mode, the film becomes riveting as we await whatever crazy stunt Tom Cruise is going to spring on us.

There’s a sense that the makers of Mission: Impossible: The Final Reckoning are biting a thumb at the naysayers and playing the hits one more time, albeit with a little bit more focus on the previous feature installments.

Saving the showstopper for last will certainly leave audiences exiting the theater on a happy high note. But it’s hard to shake the feeling that in attempting to tie everything together, “Mission: Impossible” lost the plot.

If it’s going to be the last we see of one of the most consistently entertaining franchises to come out of Hollywood in the past few decades — a subject about which Cruise and McQuarrie have remained vague — it’s a disappointing farewell with a handful of high points courtesy of the indefatigable lead actor.

Holy hell, having to sit through nearly three hours of M:I making like Ethan Hunt is the Messiah is not just exhausting: It’s a total misread of what makes these movies so fun. What a bummer.

I thought that Final reckoning, was kind of uneven, all over the place. The story is very predictable, because of the first movie that did state everything. They added a recap into that movie, I was fine with it. The acting wasn't really that convincing this time around. I found it very goofy at times. The action was mostly generic. Although the underwater/submarine scenes and the flying planes were amazing to watch. Kudos on that. The end of Gabriel was underwhelming, to say the least. I mean I understand what it is, but it made me laugh and roll my eyes, in that context. I like the couple at the end, this was a nice arc. Music was ok. Sound works quite good. I give it 65%. I think the first one had all the action and emotion, and that one felt a bit cold and by the book.

Hannah Waddingham talking in an American accent is distracting. Her mouth isn't moving naturally. It's too long. The story too unbelievable. That scene where Ethan is just breathing heavy for 20 minutes...boring. Movies shouldn't be much more than 1.5 hours long. Seeing how this was the "last" MI movie I gave it a go. Ended up bored and falling asleep. The disconnect from reality really tanks the movie. The complete lack of any witty dialog makes this script flushable.

Mission: Impossible – The Final Fake Human Mask is hopefully the last time we have to see the overused human mask being pulled off of Tom Cruise's face. At least we can hope. While all of the other mission Impossible films focus on action and are known as some of the best action films. This new movie relies solely on long dialogue scenes with very short action scenes. I don't think I have seen Tom sit in a room and talk to people for this long or this often ever before on film.
