Amazing movie with great stunts. The Rome chase was awesome and funny. Not sure how they even pulled that off. It was a wild ride from the very beginning to the end. Cant wait for the conclusion in Part 2. Would be cool if Julia made an appearance.
Well, it's a hit quality wise. When it comes to box office, it's a flop. The movie is out, but what are people talking more about? Barbie and Oppenheimer. Even the movie theater in my town is marketing the two movies more on their Facebook page than Mission Impossible during it's opening weekend. And the movie theater likes to stay on the current week, not upcoming. They weren't marketing Mission Impossible during the final week build to The Flash or Transformers' release dates. Every other post was The Flash and Transformers when it was the final week build to those movies' release date. Fast & Furious 10 had the spotlight too during the final week build. They weren't marketing The Flash or Transformers. But when it comes to Mission Impossible, there is more Barbie and Oppenheimer marketing. But I don't see anyone talking about Mission Impossible. Everything is heavily focused on Barbie and Oppenheimer. Mission Impossible will be a hit quality wise. Box office wise, it's sadly not going to do well. Oh and a lot of people are skipping Mission Impossible. All over the internet and social media I'm seeing "Why would I want to see Mission Impossible? I'd rather wait a week and watch Barbie/Oppenheimer instead/give my money to Barbie/Oppenheimer instead."
The world box office is what determines flop or hit, especially for this genre. Tom Cruise pics do well in Korea, Japan, and China (when allowed, like this one will be). Fallout made 270mil in those 3 alone, and over 786mil worldwide back in '18. The social media quotes are hilarious.
The studio takes about half the gross, the theaters get the other half. Marketing adds another 100 million or so to the budget. The studio is going to lose around 200 million on this.
