How sad is this?
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Simple story, but great story-telling. Ensure you've seen the last 3 MI movies to enrich your viewing experience of this 6th installment. This is why I love seeing bonafide action star Tom Cruise's action movies because he does most of the physical stunts himself. Plus, there are no annoying shaky cam, obvious CGI, quick edits, and/or off-the-center/close up framing of the action scenes to hide: lazy action sequences, actors' terrible physicality *cough Scarlet Johanssen's lame Black Widow cough* and/or blatant stunt doubles. Complete viewing immersion and the suspension of disbelief does not get broken once in Fallout for me. I'm not sure if Rebecca Ferguson and Henry Cavill used stunt doubles because that's how great the action stunts are - all perfectly seamless between actors and stunt doubles. My pet peeve when seeing action movies is when the stunts/action are so blatantly done by the stunt doubles *cough Scarlet Johanssen's lame Black Widow cough*. (BTW, convincing action stars Emily Blunt or Rebecca Ferguson would've played a better Black Widow because they have the physique/stature, athletic physicality, and a great wide range acting chops which would've done justice to the comics Black Widow).Every element of MI: Fallout falls in the spectrum of good to amazing. There is also moments of well timed and appropriate light comic relief provided by Simon Pegg that hits the marks unlike in a few Marvel movies. This movie is total entertainment and engaging from start to end. Fallout is best viewed on the big screen and is the best MI movie followed by Rogue Nation. My only complaint is that Rebecca Ferguson's Ilsa Faust didn't get enough fight scenes.
Probably because the other MIs were so good (except for 3, which was just awful), this movie seemed like it was rehashing old ideas and trying to tie up too many loose ends from the whole franchise. Sometimes it's better just to let characters and old plot lines fade into memory.Not that Alec Baldwin was a bad choice to play the bureaucrat, but McQuarrie went too far in trying to make him a badass fighter. Ving Rhames, at times, just seemed like he was trying to get over with his scenes. Pegg and Monaghan overacted while Cavill tried too hard to underact his role as superspy colossus. Vanessa Kirby made a great addition as the White Widow and pretty much stole every scene she was in. Angela Bassett, likewise, makes a much better hardened bureaucrat than Alec Baldwin. And Tom Cruise was Tom Cruise (not an insult or compliment, you either like him or not).
I was pretty impressed with Tom Cruise and his stunts! Great action film. Kept me going never a dull moment.
Great film. Another epic from Tom Cruise. Stunts were amazing. Loved the chemistry among Ethan, Julia & Ilsa. Everyone did amazing job. Story of Cavill as Walker - worth having that moustache.
