Review of Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) by The_T-10 — 27 Jul 2018

Easily the best action movie of the year (Yes, no matter how much I love "Infinity War", this one still beat the Marvel juggernaut). It seems impossible (pun intended) for a franchise in this age (Or any age, really) to improve with each subsequent new outings for SIX STRAIGHT MOVIES, but M: I really is that kind of franchise.

After really taking off with J.J. Abrams' "M:I 3", "Ghost Protocol" brought the franchise to a new height (Literally), and "Rogue Nation" was even better. "Fallout", however, takes it to a whole new ground.

You want chase scenes? They'll give you car chase, motorcycle chase, rooftop chase, and yes, HELICOPTER friggin' chase. You want extreme stunts? Well, Mr. Cruise will give you the freak jumps (One of them actually ended with him breaking his foot), the basement shootouts, the toilet (Yes, toilet) fight, and cliff-hanging fight.

It's not all about the actions either. There's the classic fooled-by-a-mask M:I moments, the smart underground spy-stuff, even the drama actually works (Thanks in large part to Fergusson). The chemistry among the cast is, as always, working like a charm.

Simply amazing. The story might seem too complicated at times, but if you pay enough attention and dedicate the time to process it, it's really well done.
