So this is for you, sweet ones! Sorry it's only part one of part one, but it was just too much movie to get through in one week! Here's Everything right with Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One! (Part 1)

Some part of me is still living in denial imagining Ilsa faked her death again. I really hope the sequel ties everything up and makes her death truly worth it and not just a stakes-setter

[dimorix]

The craziest part of the AI mimicking Benji is that it even includes Benji messing up his directions which happened a couple times in Fallout.

Love that Ethan in Kittridge mask did the classic Ethan head tilt.

“No Luther not DONE, DUNN… that’s my last name… it knows who I am…”
Bone chilling, really wish you covered the airport nuke more

[Imperial_Squid]

What I like most about this "mind-reading shape-shifting embodiment of chaos" line is that it builds on the reputation Hunt already has in this universe, in Rogue Nation he's referred to as "the living manifestation of destiny", I just absolutely adore how even top top top level spies and soldiers in this universe regard Ethan as this otherworldly being,

Mission Impossible isn't even a superhero film, and it still does that better than 95% films that officially are, besides all the mind-blowing action and set pieces.

Hayley "i see why Cap went back in time" Atwell is always a win

You didn't mention during the hallway and bridge fight scene, Ethan and Gabriel are both fighting women, and you can see Ethan trying not to hurt her and then see Gabrial throwing Grace into the wall and then killing Ilsa, and at the end Ethan has to win the fight and still tries to get her to surrender instead of having to seriously hurt her.

This can also relate to when Gabriel was talking to Grace and said Ethan will hurt people who get close to him and will kill anyone if they get in their way, and we first hand see that Ethan doesn't act like that, Gabriel does.

I think both Pom and Hayley were fantastic additions to the cast. Hayley fits in so well and really held her own with the rest of the veterans. Look forward to seeing more of her in the future!

I like how half the references he makes are so obscure/old that they sound like the delusional ravings of a mad man in a padded room.

[folarinosibodu]

I love that he Director on National Intel first thought the IMF meant International Monetary Fund, even tho I've never actually put that together.

So wild that I recognize the "airport" in that scene because it's in my hometown, Birmingham UK. It was a big deal when Tom rolled into town, especially when some locals nicked his BMW.

[phatnana]

It's about time someone shouted out Shea Whigham!! He really is one of my favorite character actors currently. Absolutely LOVED him in Season 1 of True Detective as the revivalist preacher!

[sleeplessindefatigable]

The thing I love most about the spoiler titles is that it's a huge mark of smug confidence by the filmmakers. As if to say "yeah, we just put all this sick shit in the titles, but we bet you're gonna wanna stick around to see what the context is".

[miuozif]

1. I think the best "Russian to English" transition scene HAS to be "The Hunt for Red October" (IMO), just brilliant without beating you over the head with it... but this one is pretty well done, too.

[swimteamizzle]

It is wild how much this series got us all to love Ilsa given her past. You mention at 11:04 that Grace should die in part because "Grace left Ethan to die, " but Ilsa betrayed Ethan and almost got him killed more than once in Rogue Nation. Not to mention shooting at Ethan in Fallout. And I'm not saying I don't love Ilsa, I'm just saying it's impressive that she's so likable!

[crashbandicootnerd]

YES I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!!! Also, love the AI Benji bit. Genius.

[Comicbroe]

The main thing about this film that stood out to me was the glorious soundtrack. Lorne Balfe went all out for this & I can't wait for how he does DR P2.



"I was hoping it'd be you" went crazy hard.

[Mr_Mimestamp]

This was my first Mission Impossible movie, and it made me want to watch all of the others. Perfect balance of silly action movie logic and actually incredibly impressive action set pieces.

[imtryingman]

Yes Mission Impossible! Bringing back all the Nostalgia

[SHMOUSEY]

Been a long time since you covered a movie I've actually seen. It feels nice to be back.
