Review of Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) by Weekend_Knights — 28 Jul 2018

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche; unlike the recent cinematic exploits of 007 - perhaps the most obvious comparison in the realm of silver-screen spy fiction - Mission: Impossible doesn't ruthlessly insist on being taken seriously.

Instead, the film is fun first and foremost; with the result that - though the plot is decidedly wacky - audiences are passively encouraged to suspend their disbelief.
