Review of Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) by C.j. H — 02 Aug 2018

The original Brian De Palma classic will always have a special place in my heart, but Mission: Impossible Fallout is easily my second favorite of the series. Admittedly I was underwhelmed by M:I-2 (too many doves) and straight-up hated Rogue Nation (too many reasons to address), but I really enjoyed Ghost Protocol, and fucking loved M:I-3 (my former second favorite).

M:I-6 is hands down the best action movie of the summer and probably one of the best action films ever. Twists, turns, humor, excitement, and old school special effects are utilized to ensure you don't lose interest for a second.

This action extravaganza is two and a half hours (the longest M:I to date) and I didn't breathe for 99% of it. The film as a whole is unforgettable, but the stunts in particular, most of which were performed by Cruise himself, are impossibly good (pun intended, bitches!).

This M:I is a solid A.
