Cavill, Vanessa Kirby, Angela Bassett
Rating: 10 out of 10, Tom Cruise’s
latest IMF mission actually does accomplish the impossible. It injects new life
into a sixth sequel and I rarely use the word epic for this type genre but it
certainly fits. The story is completely implausible but that is, of course, why
the IMF team is needed. This time they’re chasing plutonium around the world
and causing no end of traffic mishaps in Paris which must have sent insurance
rates skyrocketing. Superman is along in a rare villainous turn which he
handles adroitly. The movie also brings back some of the most beloved
characters from earlier movies to either complete, or continue, their arcs.
This was most notable in Rebecca Ferguson the only woman capable of keeping up
with Ethan Hunt. I loved the movie with relentless action, characters you can
invest in, and climatic scenes that will cause acrophobic fainting spells.
MVP: Cruise continues to own Ethan Hunt, surprisingly
effective despite his diminutive size
