Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One was the best action movie of summer 2023, and it’s still terrific a year later. Tom Cruise and director/screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie have been collaborating on films for the last 15 years, and they’ve rarely stumbled in that time. This film is meant to be the beginning of the final adventure for Cruise’s Ethan Hunt, a role he’s been playing since the first Mission: Impossible movie in 1996.
This time, Ethan faces a threat like no other in The Entity, a self-aware AI that is already well on its way to dominating the world. The Entity is not only aware of Ethan’s attempts to destroy it, it’s also making counter moves through its operative, Gabriel (Esai Morales), and the assassin known as Paris (Pom Klementieff).
