Mission: Impossible - Fallout - 不可能的任務:全面瓦解
Mission: Impossible - Fallout (不可能的任務:全面瓦解) is an 2018 film. The movie stars Tom Cruise, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Michelle Monaghan, Alec Baldwin, Henry Cavill, and Vanessa Kirby. This is the sixth installment of the Mission: Impossible film series. The storyline doesn't take place much after the 5th movie, at around 2 years.
The movie starts with Ethan and group trying to get back three stolen plutonium cores in Berlin. However, when the plan fails, the cores are back on the market. Now the CIA get involved and they don't particularly like the IMF. So, they plant an CIA operative that will assist Hunt to get back those cores. They find out about a buy that's happening and go after the cores. But the buy doesn't go as plan and find out about the Syndicate connection. When they go after that connection, all hell breaks lose and Hunt has to save the world again. Can he make it out alive and save the world?
This 6th installment was fun. I think they are trying to top each other with each one. I was gifted 1-5 for xmas and plan on rewatching them again in the near future. I think I have a special place for John Woo's 2nd installment. It's impact of that movie on the action genre was more intense than the other 5. Howevet, action these days are so over the top, its hard to impact anything these days.
This installment had all the elements of mystery, not knowing the whole story until the end, and lots of spy drama. The story does take many twist and turns that confused some of the people I watched the film with. But they still got enough to know the impact of the storylines to the ending.
I highly recommend this film if you like spy action thrillers.
