Intro: I really wanted to see at the movies, but I almost missed it.
Film 2387: "Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning" (2025), Christopher McQuarrie
Watched on: At the movies
Language: English
Watched with: Niamh
Thoughts: It's a good thing that we decided to rewatch the previous film, because I'm not sure I would have been able to follow the whole development of the plot otherwise.
As per the previous entry of this franchise, I feel like we're once again facing the issue of overstacking the story: there are a lot of plotlines, a lot of characters, a lot of stunts, to the point that it's hard to remember specifically what you just witnessed because so much happened. Don't get me wrong, this is another perfectly crafted movie, Tom Cruise proves one more time why he's perfect for the role and Christopher McQuarrie does another impressive job as a director and screenwriter. Still, "Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning" would be impossible to follow if you didn't watch the previous movie AND actually remember what happened there as well (there's a 2 year gap between "Dead Reckoning Part One" and "The Final Reckoning").
Overall, the 8th movie from this franchise is once again a really good one. I think the "Mission: Impossible" saga got better and better with time and although it peaked already, is still an engaging and entertaining ride.
This is supposed to be the final chapter of the story: do I believe it? Not for a second. It will be interesting to see if they reboot it in time for Tom Cruise to be still able to play Ethan Hunt.

Box Office: $598 million
Worth a watch?: If you love "M:I" and/or Tom Cruise, this is definitely a movie not to miss. If you skipped the previous entries, it might be a bit difficult to follow as the story flourishes with characters and subplots. But it's a really good action movie, I'm actually surprised it didn't make more money at the box-office this being the (alleged) final film of the franchise.
