Review of Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) by Maurel B — 27 Jul 2018

OK, Eye Candy? Yes! Lots of car chases and bullets flying around? Yes! Lots of dead bodies? Yes! Romance? You got it! Decent acting? You bet! Nice cinematography, cool vistas, and enough tension that you find yourself forcing your muscles to relax? Check Check and check.

So why only three stars? The whole movie was based on one moment. One moment where the hero makes a decision. It wasn't the decision I had a problem with but what happened immediately after that. Hunt makes his decision and then walks away from the car, NO ONE WOULD HAVE DONE THAT! Secure the package and then make sure that what you knew was the right decision was actually that.

The whole freakin' movie is based on that one second. Not only that but WTF was up with the plot, the scene where Hunt meets up in private with the CIA director felt like a, "uh, we gotta put this in" moment after the movie had been screened.

And speaking of CIA, I know Angela Bassett can act, but what the hell was that. I didn't feel a word of what she said. It was like I expected her to say, "just kidding, nah man, i'm just playing.

" after every line. And don't tell me that plot wasn't sort of confusing, the decoy in the bathroom almost killed the guy he was supposedly decoying for. What would have happened if he really did? The whole back end of the movie would have been meaningless.

The 15 mins, and if you saw the movie you know what I'm talking about, literally went on for 45 mins real time. The ending was so unlikely it really literally was Mission Impossible. There are so many confusing questions in this movie to me, I am obviously the idiot here because 224 of the 230 experts loved the movie Its certified fresh! What did I like? The White Widow.

Venessa Kirby (You've seen her in the Crown as Princess Margaret in The Crown) is a stud up and comer. She plays a perfect villain-love interest. She could actually be a bond girl that knows how to act.

Also loved Sean Harris as crazy guy. Overall the movie is fun, its a eye candy see it in the theater movie. But 97%? Nah.
