Looking forward to this...screw the Superhero movies....


....I need a more traditional action film. I hope this doesn't disappoint. I was excited for fast and Furious last year and it ended up being my least favorite of the series.

Superheros movies aren't that bad. It's just there's too many of them one after another and they all are same and repetitive. Good to see, something different for a change. Movie couldn't have been released at any better time.

I agree with you. Superheroes are not bad but just we don't have much variety and too much of it. Like MI series superhero films should let directors put their own mark in each film they make.

reviews are great, but been fooled before

Towers above all superhero movies... MUCH more fun and over the top...

The biggest difference is that as crazy as the scenarios are and as extreme as the action is, you still feel it when Hunt/Cruise gets hit... it still works on a human level and on a human scale... Therefore it's a lot more immersive action than watching spandexed comicbook characters throw CGI at one another for two hours...

traditional actioner? You get exactly that here. But it's as formulaic and generic as Marvel movies.

the last act where they have to decide cut the colored wires and stop the ticking clock with 1 second left, all that stuff felt like really generic filler. too bad the end comes off that way cause up until that point the action was fresh and totally bonkers.


Have a short review of this movie if anyone is interested. If you feel there is something I could be doing better, I would definitely love to hear it. Review here - https://youtu.be/81bhKp0YR_M
