I'm going to sound negative because to be honest i expected a lot more from this movie.

First of all the dialogue was unusually poor, i know that's not what the movie is for but it's noticeable and it broke the immersion for me. The beginning felt like an introduction, which might be necessary for first time mission impossible viewers, though quite repetitive for those who have seen Dead Reckoning. The flashbacks and flashforwards to explain the story was a lazy choice in my opinion and it was one the big negatives in this film. The whole story is constantly being explained leaving no room for mystery, some intrigue or some unpredictable moments. Actually it becomes almost annoying because the dialogue is just sloppy, leaving very little for the actors to work with. Fortunately some momentum is gained as the movie progresses, mainly from the stunts which are absolutely incredible and let's be honest, you probably won't find anything that comes close in any other type of media. Though this momentum doesn't last long because of all the explaining again and the bad guys seeming to be there only for show. What I'm trying to say is that Yes the action sequences are obviously the main selling point of MI but not the only one. An interesting story that keeps its viewers guessing is what separates an OK MI from a great MI. I don't know, maybe they messed up the editing? I think the writing was a problem, the whole thing seemed rushed.

I think i will just rewatch Fallout to feel good.

It should be titled "Missing" Impossible. Everything you love about the MI franchise is gone. If you are expecting an espionage thriller, there are 7 other Mission Impossible movies for that. It isn't this. The story is convoluted and doesn't make sense. The editing is so choppy and doesn't feel cohesive. Taking place less than 2 months after the last movie, so much has changed that is never explained. How is so-and-so president all of a sudden when they weren't 2 months prior? How did that other character get into the state they are in? No explanation. The franchise should have ended with the last movie. This felt like it was all about Tom Cruise trying to prove to himself and others that he can still do this. What a disappointment!

Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning serves as the grandest and boldest farewell to arguably the greatest action franchise of all time. Yet, it lacks a true sense of finality.

The film shoulders a colossal burden, attempting to deliver a worthy goodbye to Ethan Hunt and the iconic franchise. It aims to provide satisfying conclusions to a bloated roster of side characters while also setting up inevitable cash-grab sequels. Additionally, it strives to outdo every previous installment by going bigger and bolder than ever. While it excels in some areas, it falters in others.

One of the film's biggest challenges is managing its vast ensemble of characters. The script occasionally struggles to balance them all, resulting in scenes where some characters randomly appear and disappear, seemingly out of convenience rather than logic. This inconsistency can be jarring, pulling the audience out of the experience.

In typical Mission Impossible fashion, the film promises the most spectacular set pieces yet-and it delivers. These grand, meticulously crafted action sequences are thrilling to watch. However, their constant back-to-back presence somewhat dampens their impact. Once the audience becomes accustomed to the relentless spectacle, the element of surprise and tension starts to wane.

The stunts, while still impressive, carry a bittersweet note. Unlike previous installments where Tom Cruise's daring feats were fully captured on camera, this time around, roughly half of the action scenes rely on noticeable green screen effects. Though understandable, given Cruise's age and safety precautions, it slightly detracts from the visceral thrill of witnessing genuine stunts, making the danger feel less real.

Performance-wise, this installment shines, particularly with Angela Bassett delivering one of the most emotionally charged portrayals in the franchise. The script's emphasis on deeper emotions allows for some of the finest acting moments in the series.

However, the editing feels somewhat sloppy, giving the impression that substantial material was left on the cutting room floor. While the brisk pacing keeps the film engaging, it sometimes feels as if we're only witnessing the start and end of scenes without the journey in between, leaving a sense of incompleteness. The cutting is fast, but not in an exhilarating manner-instead, it's disorienting.

If this truly is the final goodbye to the Mission Impossible series, it's been an unforgettable ride. Despite its flaws, the franchise remains the pinnacle of action cinema in my book, and its legacy will undoubtedly endure for generations. I've said this before, and I'll say it again: we are witnessing a master at craft. Cherish it while you can.

This message will self-destruct in five seconds.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is a bit of a disappointment, coming off the particularly high highs of Fallout and Dead Reckoning. The stakes are heightened narratively, with the end of the world being imminent throughout, but you don't often feel the desperation; you're mostly just told about it. And that's one of the things that holds this film back. It's so weighed down in exposition and dialogue scenes that aren't necessarily that much worse than such scenes in the other films in the series, but they're inferior enough that they start to drag. And there's not enough action here, which feels weird to say. There needed to be one more set piece, preferably during the first hour, because this is a long movie and the first hour or more is honestly a bit dull. The funny banter was also much less funny, when they even attempted humor. It's kind of a dour movie, which makes sense with the stakes, but also, I didn't really feel those stakes. So I would've rather just had that usual breezy team chemistry and joke-making.

Speaking of stakes and showing things, I would've loved a set piece in a populated area? Or an action scene that felt more alive/crowded/in a place that felt real. In The Final Reckoning, there's an extended one with Cruise alone, one near the end (and on some of the posters for the film) involving some small planes, and then a handful of small shootouts and fist fights. There's nothing that's as big or as exciting as the whole train sequence in Dead Reckoning, and that film had some city action (plus a great car chase) and the whole airport scene. It's fresher in my mind than The Final Reckoning, even though I saw one two years ago and the other two hours ago. There's more tension and a feeling of danger when you can see civilization and bystanders, I think. And with everyone in the world being in danger because of the plot, it was weird to feel like no one (other than the main heroes and villains) was in danger during the action scenes.

The finale of this movie is smaller scale, but that sequence is a knockout. It's almost worth the price of admission, but you do have to slog through some dreary stuff beforehand. The end of the world is nigh, but mostly you just hear about it, or some high-ranking government officials discuss things in board/bored rooms (and some of those scenes feel like if they were pushed into territory that was any more over-dramatic, we'd have Dr. Strangelove-esque comedy).

The more I think about it, the more I realize this was kind of disappointing, even if I really loved the one big action scene that will, eventually, be the only thing I remember about this. I'm torn between like a 3/5 or a 3.5/5, and think I have to go more toward the former, just because this is too long for something with so little action. It needed to show more of the world, and we needed at least one sequence with more people and things in it. I feel like Dead Reckoning had about two or three times more great action than this, and the same can be said about Fallout. Dead Reckoning was a few minutes shorter, and Fallout was like half an hour shorter. Neither cost as much, but both felt more expensive. More bang for your buck watching those, and fewer bucks spent by the filmmakers to make them. The Final Reckoning feels pretty expensive, but not $300-400 million expensive.

They got a little lazy with The Final Reckoning. They didn't get lazy in the couple of particularly flashy scenes, but they needed more big scenes and they shouldn't have had the film feel so empty. Too much telling, not enough showing. The lack of a consistent villain throughout hurt - Gabriel was a compelling presence in Dead Reckoning, but he's not in this one as much, disappearing for long stretches at a time.

The Final Reckoning comes alive in parts. The plane stuff is thrilling. 90% of the movie, or maybe even a little more, fluctuates between being a tiny bit disappointing and very disappointing. I guess overall, I'm quite disappointed they couldn't keep the momentum going; these films had just kept getting better, from the second onwards, but no more.

This really will be the Final one, I Reckon. Can't see it turning a profit, either.

The Good: There are two standout action set pieces here-masterfully shot, expertly choreographed, and absolutely worth the price of admission on their own. When Mission: Impossible leans into what it does best-practical stunts and high-octane tension-it soars. Tom Cruise once again gives it everything, backed by a stacked A-list cast that brings gravitas and charm to the chaos.

The Bad: Unfortunately, the film struggles under the weight of its own ambition. It's long, bloated, and paced like a slog. The exposition dumps are painful-overwritten, unnecessarily complex, and made worse by clunky dialogue that bounces awkwardly between multiple characters and locations mid-scene. It kills momentum and disengages the viewer. The villain is a caricature with little dramatic weight, and despite the runtime, there are surprisingly few action sequences compared to earlier entries. Instead, we get manufactured drama and overwrought tension that never really pays off.

The Verdict: This is still an entertaining ride, but one unlikely to earn many repeat viewings. Ghost Protocol, Rogue Nation, and Fallout remain the high watermark of the series. While Final Reckoning lands a jaw-dropping finale, the first half is too bogged down to call this a great send-off. A fitting end to an epic run-just not the ending it deserved.

Okay, so last night I read some initial reviews of the movie in my feed and all of them were calling it a dull movie, one of them even calling it worse of the franchise. So, today when I entered the cinema my expectations were not so high. But throughout the movie I kept wondering when will the dull part begin!

Instead, I got epic visuals, heartwarming human emotions, satisfying throwbacks for a long term MI fan. When the credit rolled I had nothing but respect for the makers, for the entire team, not just of this movie but for every movie since MI 1996.

Overall, it might not top Mission Impossible Fallout but it will stay equally memorable to me. It did its job well which is to conclude the franchise in a spectacular way, without going over the top with action (think of Fast and Furious franchise).

I surely liked it better than Dead Reckoning because there were more of likeable characters rather than annoying characters. It was like a bunch of good people coming together to fight a noble cause, something that was missing in the previous movie. Some people might find some of the scenes being too lengthy but I didn't mind all of the hard work being played a little longer than required. Watching Tom Cruise giving it his all was once again as thrilling as it was 25 (or so) years ago.

As the movie said: our lives are the sum of our choices. Watching this movie was one of the best choice I ever made. So, if you are an MI fan don't miss this in cinema. It's going to be memorable, it's going to be epic!

A globe-trotting and pulse-pounding triumph. The Final Reckoning has its limitations and odd dramatic fixations, but it holds together as a massive cinematic experience filled with exhilarating, nail-biting, armrest-grabbing tension. Cementing its place as one of cinema's most consistent franchises, the film's breathtaking scale and death-defying stunts make for a blockbuster masterclass. Continuing Cruise and McQuarrie's intrepid crusade against the rising use of AI, it's hard not to enjoy the duo at home in their element, delivering yet more jaw-dropping stunts and globe-trotting adventure, overflowing with overly complex plot and escalating complication upon complication. In many ways, this is less an action film and more a disaster flick. Where worst-case scenarios were once implied, they are now visualised with apocalyptic projections. Gargantuan in action, runtime, and scope, The Final Recokoning completely embraces its grandiose nonsense. It acknowledges itself as huge, fun, silly, and emotionally rewarding, never attempting to restrain its exuberance, and we love it for that. A sentimental sendoff that accomplishes its mission with a characteristic flair for the impossible. Ethan can rest easy now. Mission accomplished Tom.

The selling point of MI movies has always been crystal clear: action. Big, loud, pulse-pounding ACTION. The fun, the adrenaline, the jaw-dropping stunts - Tom Cruise defying death like he's auditioning for a Red Bull commercial. That's what we come for. And yet, bafflingly, the first truly decent action set piece in Final Reckoning doesn't show up until 80 minutes in. Eighty minutes!

What comes before that? Clunky exposition, lazy flashbacks, and a nostalgia-soaked checklist of memberberries that feel more obligatory than earned. The pacing limps along for over an hour, weighed down by self-serious dialogue and characters repeating plot points we already know.

Even the ending, both in terms of action and its LOTR-style drawn-out goodbyes, feels underwhelming and emotionally hollow. The only sequence that truly delivered was the submarine set piece-but let's be honest, 10-15 solid minutes can't rescue an almost 3-hour movie from mediocrity.

I'm honestly so disappointed. Dead Reckoning: Part One was smart, slick, and thrilling from start to finish - which makes the mediocrity of its direct sequel all the more frustrating. Final Reckoning feels less like a grand finale and more like a franchise on autopilot.

This is, without a doubt, one of the weakest entries in the series-only narrowly edging out John Woo's mess.

As both parts of the final film in the Mission Impossible franchise were shot back to back, I can't understand the marketing decision to release the 2 chapters 2 years apart. Having said that, the opening- again - was a masterpiece: fast, entertaining, suspenseful. What followed thereafter was 1 hour too long. They just stretched the final action scene endlessly and the White House/ Pentagon scenes were too pompous and too long. One could have made the film so much better and more entertaining by cutting A LOT of scenes. However the movie was still fun, but by far not the best of the series. All actors were excellent, the action scenes were the stars, as usual. Unfortunately many dialogues sounded like the were written by "the entity" aka KI.

This is such a gripping movie. Every sec of stunts is a benchmark in itself. You can't take your eye of the theater screen. It reminds me of why theaters worth going. Just like the last train action in last mission impossible movie this one peaked it in every seat gripping instance. And Tom Cruise truly is the last living star in Hollywood. You can easily see how much he is passionate about these movies with nothing left on the table for later. Also the story is heart touching and made the action scenes totally worthy time to time in the movie. You must watch this one it theaters to really appreciate the movie.

It was quite clear this film had lofty ambitions since the previous entry.

And considering what it is, what came before it and the legacy it was meant to conclude.. I was expecting to be wowed! Not bored at the start, anxious for something to happen in the middle, and losing all hope to at least be surprised by the end.

It is almost 3 hours long, and the little that does happen, is buried between too much nothing. Awful pacing, dull and meanders dialogue that often goes nowhere nor builds-up to something, a completely dull villain and threat. And worse of all.. what is the point in a movie that constantly tells you exactly how it is going to go? And by virtue of being what it is, there is absolutely no mystery about its conclusion. Not playing with a viewer's expectation is NOT a requirement in storytelling.. but you have to give them something! A bit of tension and intrigue.

It's a shame because I can see what it wanted to achieve with its premise, but it feels stuck in the past while trying to use more modern tropes.

Still, it is entertaining enough, and provides spectacle-scenes so incredible anyone would be hard pressed to replicate them in such quality. The cast is okay, the locations good, great production, visuals and cinematography.

But a film has to be more than a few set pieces and scenes.. it has to work as a whole and be more than the sum of its parts.

It's a fact that not all previous entries have been stellar. So I'm somewhat sad this is how M. I. "ends".

This is easily one of the most anticipated films of the year-and for good reason. After nearly 30 years of explosive action, daring stunts, and intricate spy plots, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning may just be the final chapter in Ethan Hunt's legendary journey. And if it truly is the end, then what a powerful and heartfelt send-off it is.

While it might not have the jaw-dropping, death-defying moment like the motorcycle jump off a cliff from Dead Reckoning Part 1-performed by Tom Cruise himself-The Final Reckoning delivers in other, equally meaningful ways. The story is packed with callbacks to previous Mission: Impossible films, cleverly weaving together a narrative that pays tribute to its roots. The return of William Donloe and flashes of Ethan from the early days (when Cruise was just 33) to now, at nearly 63, serve as a powerful reflection of time, dedication, and transformation.

Amazingly, Tom Cruise still moves with the energy and intensity of someone half his age. His iconic sprint scenes are as thrilling as ever, and his commitment to physical performance continues to impress. Sure, the plot-like most spy thrillers-requires some suspension of disbelief. The odds are often impossibly small. But honestly? I didn't care. I was thoroughly entertained.

Beyond the action, what stood out was the emotional depth. We see just how much Ethan cares for his team. The bond they share feels more like a family than a crew. The loss of Ilsa is heartbreaking, but it's handled with grace, and it adds real emotional weight. There are also moments of intelligent humor that bring lightness to the tension, making the 2-hour 49-minute runtime feel surprisingly brisk.

The franchise began by staying close to its TV roots, where every member of the team had a special skill and no one outshined the others. At times, that format felt a little flat. But as the films evolved, so did the characters-and the emotional stakes. The introduction of Ethan's wife in Fallout added a new layer of humanity, and in this film, the emergence of new faces makes you wonder if a new team could one day carry on the legacy-even without Ethan.

All in all, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is a phenomenal conclusion to one of the greatest action franchises of all time. It's thrilling, emotional, and packed with everything fans have come to love. If this really is the end, then they've ended it in the best possible way.

When franchises now purport that they're making the last film in a series, it's usually just a question of whether the movie makes money or not. Despite much-touted and seemingly definitive farewells in X-Men, Harry Potter, or The Lord of the Rings, these properties keep being unearthed and milked until there's nary a cent left. The Mission: Impossible franchise has been surprisingly resilient-consistently delivering increasingly elaborate stunts for Tom Cruise to risk life and limb in. But now, the latest entry is marketed as the final outing for the character of Ethan Hunt.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (2025) is a direct sequel to Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning: Part 1(2023)-already one of the longest-titled films in blockbuster history-which now awkwardly retains its "Part 1" subtitle, while its sequel gets a fresh coat of paint. Once again, we're in a world where an all-powerful AI known as The Entity wants to bring about the end of mankind. Having obtained the key to stopping it in the previous film, rogue agent Ethan Hunt (Cruise) must now travel to the Arctic to locate a sunken Russian submarine containing the source code. The fate of the world (again) rests in his hands. He's joined by old friends like Luther (Ving Rhames), Benji (Simon Pegg), and Grace (Hayley Atwell), along with former enemies Paris (Pom Klementieff) and Degas (Greg Tarzan Davis).

The Final Reckoning is once again helmed by Christopher McQuarrie, who has now directed the last four installments of the franchise-and in doing so, helped craft some of its best. But with the pressure of creating a "finale," McQuarrie stumbles into overcomplicated plotting and endless callbacks, losing the franchise's greatest asset: its sense of tightly executed, high-octane fun. Co-writing with Erik Jendresen (also a writer on Part 1), McQuarrie delivers a script that somehow manages to overexplain everything while also making less sense the more you think about it. The dialogue, plotting, and editing feel like they've been dumbed down to a shocking degree-treating viewers like they're watching the film with one eye on their phone and the other half-closed.

As with Dead Reckoning: Part 1, The Final Reckoning doesn't just repeat itself-it hammers you with repetition until it becomes unbearable. Every plot beat is stated, then restated by another character, just to make sure we really, really get it. It's not just redundant-it's patronizing. The film seems genuinely afraid that the audience will forget what's happening if it doesn't spell it out again every five minutes. And the editing doesn't help. The film frequently cuts back to the same shot or moment from seconds earlier, repeating visual cues just in case you momentarily forgot what a submarine or USB key looks like. Final Reckoning feels like a movie edited by someone who assumes you're doomscrolling TikTok mid-scene.

This constant handholding means the actual plot doesn't kick into gear until over an hour in. I checked my watch, and characters were still busy either recapping the previous film or rephrasing the very simple premise: "go to the submarine, stop the AI." McQuarrie further complicates things by adding groan-worthy connections to previous films, and having characters make mind-numbingly illogical decisions-just so we can get to a manufactured "tense" moment. It's the kind of lazy plotting that feels more Fast & Furious than Mission: Impossible.

That said, when The Final Reckoning finally leans into what this series does best-spy thrills and over-the-top action-it briefly remembers how to have fun. The submarine infiltration is a standout sequence, smartly constructed and genuinely suspenseful. It earns its place in the franchise's pantheon of impossible missions. The finale, involving two propeller planes, tries to raise the stakes-but the pacing drags and the climax never quite reaches the adrenaline-pumping heights of past finales. Instead of a crescendo, it feels more like a decent mid-tier set piece that overstays its welcome.

Cruise still gives it his all, but the age is starting to show-despite the best efforts of makeup and lighting. The rest of the cast gets sidelined. Pegg and Atwell, who previously offered sharp comic and emotional beats, are reduced to glorified exposition machines. Meanwhile, the film clearly wants to land a big emotional punch between Ethan and Luther, but the writing doesn't quite deliver the weight it's aiming for.

In the end, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is a disappointment-following the already bloated Dead Reckoning: Part 1. It leans too heavily into endless exposition, condescending repetition, and frenetic editing that's allergic to letting any scene breathe. The lack of trust in the audience drags down the first half. Still, once Ethan finally gets moving, a strong submarine set piece and a decent airborne chase remind us of why we came. With a tighter script, smarter pacing, and just a little more faith in its viewers, The Final Reckoning could have delivered the thrilling supposed send-off this franchise deserved.

Lamest movie in the series, if not ever! I unfortunately spent money in the theatre to watch this so waste of time as well as money! I don't even want to waste any more words writing this review but unfortunately cannot post this until and unless it contains three hundred words so to sum up... Lamest movie ever!
