Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning and Event Horizon (1997) both push men to their limits in the face of forces that defy control — one through kinetic desperation, the other through metaphysical collapse. Ethan Hunt races to stop the world from tearing itself apart; Captain Miller simply tries to hold his together while drifting inside a ship that has already gone to hell.
Hunt moves with purpose — guided by instinct, loyalty, and near-impossible odds. His body breaks, but his faith in people doesn’t. Miller, by contrast, begins with command and ends with surrender, watching his crew succumb not to failure, but to memory sharpened by madness. One is tested by betrayal and gravity; the other by guilt and gravity that bends reality.
The Final Reckoning is about surviving the fallout. Event Horizon is about becoming it. In one, you run toward the danger to save the world. In the other, you realize the world has already ended — and you brought it with you.
