Durgesh Tiwary’s View: When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch this movie on release day in cinemas as watched all previous films of this franchise and big fan of Tom Cruise.
Ethan Hunt and the IMF team must track down a terrifying new weapon that threatens all of humanity if it falls into the wrong hands. With control of the future and the fate of the world at stake, a deadly race around the globe begins. Confronted by a mysterious, all-powerful enemy, Ethan is forced to consider that nothing can matter more than the mission not even the lives of those he cares about most.
Mission Impossible 7 story with plenty of twists and turns, friendships and betrayals, drama and action. The first half has one very lengthy action sequence which seems to be never-ending, but the second half moves at a very fast pace and, therefore, keeps the audience engrossed. Although the climax like the rest of the film lacks novelty. The chase sequence in the first half and the train scene in the latter half are the main highlights of the film and will undoubtedly leave you in awe. In this year of adrenaline-driven action films, it has become increasingly hard to distinguish one from the other, but Cruise ensures he stands out from the rest. The fact that this franchise still has enough life left in it after seven films without feeling too exhaustive says a great deal about Cruise and McQuarrie’s passionate dedication to action-based blockbusters.
On the flipside story is great but it not enough information is provided about the AI system, Entity. Offering a glimpse of Entity at the end of Part One would have helped viewers understand it better. The screenplay in the second half is a bit sluggish. However, it doesn’t significantly impact the film’s flow, thanks to the action-packed sequences. Compared to the first half, the second half is slower at some places. Gabriel could have been portrayed as more powerful. Adding a few more scenes for him might have made the character more interesting. Also, a few scenes in the middle of the second half don’t have the desired impact.
Overall, movie is an enthralling spy action thriller that ranks among the best films in the franchise. Tom Cruise and his impressive action stunts are the movie’s biggest strengths. Despite a few scenes in the second half that may look tedious and disrupt the flow this one must watch for action and franchise lovers. My view on this movie Highly Recommended.
