Wonderful character development!

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Brennan Camacho
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Where was the tension; suspense; class, style; intrigue; excitement; mystery; thrills and creative inventive story writing? I think it got lost in the messy plot of cartoon character action and poor acting with an uninventive story line.Please bring back directors John Woo, Brian De Palma or Brad Bird!!! and leave McQuarrie to direct teenage cartoon films. MI Fallout had no guts or raw moments and where did the sleek stylish filming and directing go? this wasn't high class slickness. This MI didn't even come close to paying homage to James Bond, where past Mission Impossibles' did! This film was just painted with 1 coat of cheap vanilla paint which was left to dry and then just started flaking for the next 140 mins. No trimmings or embellishments, it was just dull, plain, grey, ugly and boring.This installment in the MI series was suffering from a throbbing bad headache and nauseating hang over with nowhere to go but downhill. MI Fallout didn't really need any sound, you could watch it in silence and still know what was happening. You feel no connection or care for any of the characters and they all seemed emotionless & expressionless. Atleast Tom Cruise made an effort in his stunt roles, but sadly McQuarrie destroyed the Ethan Hunt character and made his personality seem weak, hopeless and embarrasing. Compare Ethan Hunt's personality in past MI films and you will see the change in MI Fallout. Michelle Monaghan's face was expressionless and emotionless throughout the whole film, even in a supposedly tense and traumatic scene while attempting to cut wires to a bomb which was about to destroy the planet, her facial expression does not change through the whole ordeal, its quite laughable. What a mess! I left the cinema angry, disappointed and extremely let down as an avid and faithful fan of all past MI films. The audience also left quiet and with no comment, they probably wondered what just happened and did they really just watch an MI film, or a comical farce?Terrible acting, weak story line, cartoon character violence which became laughable, awful CGI effects, bad plot, the actors didn't take this installment seriously and either did the film itself.Was it intentionally a black comedy that got lost in translation about 20mins into the film? I drifted off in the last 30mins only to be waken by crash, bang and noise. Oh yeah! I am watching Mission Impossible Fallout? or was I just woken from a bad dream?
Even the musical score was as boring and dull with huge similarities to Sicario, but atleast Sicario's musical score suited that film and had purpose.There was nothing new and nothing to make you go "wow" Past MI films always brought something new and exciting to the table, but sadly not this time.What happened to Vanessa Kirby half way through the film? did she realise what a mess she had entered into and then walked off set? Alec Baldwin decided to die a quick death, with Tom Cruise telling him "sorry you had to die Alec".Enough is enough, I will go back and enjoy the exciting roller coaster ride on the past MI films and throw this one into the "what a waste of time bin" .3/10 from me, the 3 was for the location and fabulous scenery in Paris, Norway and New Zealand.

Simple story, but great story-telling. Ensure you've seen the last 3 MI movies to enrich your viewing experience of this 6th installment. This is why I love seeing bonafide action star Tom Cruise's action movies because he does most of the physical stunts himself. Plus, there are no annoying shaky cam, obvious CGI, quick edits, and/or off-the-center/close up framing of the action scenes to hide: lazy action sequences, actors' terrible physicality *cough Scarlet Johanssen's lame Black Widow cough* and/or blatant stunt doubles. Complete viewing immersion and the suspension of disbelief does not get broken once in Fallout for me. I'm not sure if Rebecca Ferguson and Henry Cavill used stunt doubles because that's how great the action stunts are - all perfectly seamless between actors and stunt doubles. My pet peeve when seeing action movies is when the stunts/action are so blatantly done by the stunt doubles *cough Scarlet Johanssen's lame Black Widow cough*. (BTW, convincing action stars Emily Blunt or Rebecca Ferguson would've played a better Black Widow because they have the physique/stature, athletic physicality, and a great wide range acting chops which would've done justice to the comics Black Widow).Every element of MI: Fallout falls in the spectrum of good to amazing. There is also moments of well timed and appropriate light comic relief provided by Simon Pegg that hits the marks unlike in a few Marvel movies. This movie is total entertainment and engaging from start to end. Fallout is best viewed on the big screen and is the best MI movie followed by Rogue Nation. My only complaint is that Rebecca Ferguson's Ilsa Faust didn't get enough fight scenes.

This update to the M.I. canon has a plodding and predictable beginning that had me wondering if the franchise had run its course. But when the action scenes started, all was forgiven. In fact, they are the real star of this film.They say Cruise does almost all of his own stunts, but this film has so many dangerous-looking, frenetic action scenes that the claim strains credulity. Great camera work accentuates the chase scenes and the perilous-seeming stunts that make this film a great ride.Henry Cavill, who plays August Walker, has a strong screen presence that makes me wonder how he might fill the shoes of 007. The film is also blessed with some strong female performances, though each could have used more screen time.If you like action films, this is one to see.

I was expecting a good movie going in but I didn't expect that it would be one of the best action movies I have ever seen!!
MI Fallout has it all - fighting, jokes, plot twists, Tom Cruise being Tom Cruise, explosions and so much more.
Just go watch it if you loooove a good action movie!
