For Those who Loved it...When did you Know?

Of course this an epic action movie i mean the helicopter chase alone is an amazing set piece with really the best stunt work by Tom cruise ever that never done before

i'd never watched a MI film before seeing this in the theatres, & i was shocked at how much i enjoyed it. i definitely think it ranks among the best action films i've seen.

the moment when i knew i was seeing something pretty remarkable was the bathroom fight. there have been a million fights in bathrooms, there will be a million more, but the entire time i was watching this one, i felt like i was seeing something as energetic & intense as the best scenes from the raid, and there's no higher bar for action movies for me.

if it hadn't done anything great after that, i still would have felt like i'd seen something pretty special, but it just kept ratcheting up the intensity. the chase scenes rate with the best moments from fury road. the helicopter scene was astonishing. it was all truly great.

the story is just along for the ride i suppose, another film about people running around to beat a ticking clock on a bomb, and maybe that keeps this from attaining some kind of true cinematic nirvana, but i'm not going to complain about a film that gave me as much pure entertainment as this one did.

In the motorcycle scenes in Paris. Astounding. I've never seen action filmmaking like that in my life. The logistics involved in those locations boggles my mind. How did they even get the tourists out of all those shots? I knew then I was watching the actual pinnacle of real world film making.

The HALO jump sequence that leads into the fight in the bathroom for me as well.

The build up to the jump, knowing it’s genuinely Tom Cruise throwing himself out the plane, the sheer tension that follows, the way it was beautifully shot (can’t beat watching it in IMAX)... this is when I knew I was about to experience (WAS experiencing) another sensational MI ride. So the HALO jump was enough to wow me, but when the extraordinary bathroom fight hit the screen, that’s when I became convinced that this film was taking things to another level when it came to tension and masterful action choreography.

The rest of Fallout only exceeded my expectations. What a film. I echo the sentiments of many when I say this is one of the finest action films/spy thrillers ever made.

Concur. I saw this in 3D and it was that motorcycle/car chase in Paris that grabbed me. Hands down the best MI movie and, yes, one of the best action movies ever.

Hi I agree it was the plane jump, everything after that just got better and better. And Henry helped (he's hot ha). As an all-out action movie I don't think it gets better. I love the Bourne movies and this is right up there with them xx
