Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Ratings & Reviews
- MeghannBJanuary 31, 2025Let's put it this way. The only thing you need to put in an MI trailer to get me to see the movie is tell me that another MI movie is coming out, and the date it's premiering. BUT that being said this movie is actually excellent. A total thrill ride. I'm counting the days til part 2.
- TanalienJanuary 9, 2025Dead Reckoning Part One is not a match for the full package of Fallout, but the experience of watching it is better in some respects. The narrative seamlessly jumps from conversation to action and from one city to another. It is a style of action filmmaking that only Cruise and McQuarrie can manage. Their pursuit of perfection rages on, but the breadth of the story minimizes this film’s impact. Dead Reckoning Part One has its share of great set pieces, an intriguing and timely premise, and welcome comedy, but there are so many characters that the central cast sees a digression - a descent back to well-trodden territory. A repackaging of old parts, one might say. The pieces of a great Mission film are all here, but it lacks internal consistency. Dead Reckoning Part One is an uneven time at the movies. After the credits rolled, I said, “This was better than Fallout!” As soon as the words were uttered, something felt wrong. When the adrenaline subsided, the experience felt hollow: a rollercoaster experience that looks brand new but feels off. Dead Reckoning Part Two might retroactively patch some holes, but as a standalone title, the first part crumbles upon closer examination.
- Eric BakkeOctober 9, 2024A rare franchise in which each film tops its predecessor.
