Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1 (2023)* FULL LENGTH REACTION
Added 2024-01-17 23:40:29 +0000 UTCI'm all caught up with the Mission Impossible franchise!!
I will say that Fallout was overall better for me, but this one was very enjoyable. The soundtrack though was really amazing! 🤩
Now I'll get to impatiently wait for Part 2!
For this style of reaction, you need your own copy to watch the movie. Also know there is an extension that allows you to do Picture-in-Picture in case you are interested: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/picture-in-picture-extens/hkgfoiooedgoejojocmhlaklaeopbecg?hl=en

2025-06-03 00:32:40 +0000 UTCOh yes I agree. This particular bit just breaks my suspension of disbelief because it is such a deus ex machina.

2024-01-21 22:15:05 +0000 UTCI think Mission Impossible takes liberty with realism. If we were to analyze it and spot all the problems with the story, there would be a lot 🤣

2024-01-21 20:49:22 +0000 UTCthere is a basic problem with the story: Since the 1960's, both western and Soviet torpedoes have 2 safety features to prevent the opening scene from happening. Both of these are mechanical devices, so can't be altered by computer access. 1) The torpedo must travel a minimum distance before it is armed. and 2) the torpedo is disabled if the torpedo turn around 180 degrees.

2024-01-21 20:24:01 +0000 UTCI've loved the MI villains so far, and the AI being a villains doesn't have the same charm as the humans did. Movies that introduce too many characters at once tend to be less good for me too (Suicide Squad, The Suicide Squad, Eternals, though maybe it's just superhero movies that introduce a lot of people lol). I have a hard time connecting with them if there are too many, and it can definitely detract from the narrative since they want to showcase each character a decent amount.

2024-01-20 17:20:59 +0000 UTCDefinitely a better way to look at it than assume they will be shipped together. I always hope that they don't just ship people together just for some bit of romantic aspect in a movie. It really does feel like it's own movie, and the second part will just continue the story. Only 1 year of waiting now lol

2024-01-20 17:18:07 +0000 UTCFallout was Def the peak, I generally don't like 2 partners, the first one always feels half done but this time I think they actually made it a complete movie. I don't think hes necessarily attached to grace, remember back to MI2 they made a big deal of how he would avoid collateral damage at all costs and to this point she's just someone caught in the middle. Glad they didn't try to ship them though, she was kinda like Benji in his first movie with them.

2024-01-20 01:37:36 +0000 UTCI’m not sure when I’ll get to watch your reaction (soon hopefully) but I’m glad you enjoyed it. I saw this at the cinema and left with a satisfied feeling overall, but certainly not blown away. I didn’t particularly like the AI villain, just didn’t feel like MI to me, but I’ve since warmed a little to it. My two biggest takeaways were that it felt a bit like a collection of really good action scenes rather than a cohesive story, and there were far too many characters. I like them all, but in trying to give them each a worthwhile chunk of screen time it detracted from the narrative. I was sad to see the death of Ilsa, she was a great character for me. I do like Grace, but this may be more to do with my crush on Hayley Atwell than the character herself. Looking forward to part 2 though.

2024-01-18 11:02:20 +0000 UTCYeah that plus the budget ballooning during covid, but Paramount’s awful choice of release date can’t be overstated.

2024-01-18 00:16:20 +0000 UTCOh, that's super weird! Part 1 and no part 2?! A shame is underperformed at the box office though, I think part of the issue was release being near Oppenheimer/Barbie release?
Verowak
2024-01-18 00:13:29 +0000 UTCI agree this doesn’t match Fallout but it’s yet another great movie in the franchise. Hayley Atwell is better here than she’s ever been. Also fun fact: because this movie underperformed at the box office, they’re changing the title of the next movie, so Dead Reckoning will always be a part 1 with no part 2.
