Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning

2025

★★★½

Look, this movie has some bizarre pacing, cute albeit entirely unnecessary callbacks to previous films, way too many characters to balance (very funny for the character you gave nothing to do to say out loud "there's nothing for me to do"), and a general unmistakable sense that they did not plan out what to do next before finishing the previous film.

BUT the climax was one of the most insane things I've ever seen onscreen and it made my palms sweatier than they've ever been in my life so there is absolutely no world where I could ever call this a bad movie. Disappointing, maybe. But you better believe I ed the rest of my audience in giving it a standing ovation.
