Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning

Ethan Hunt and team continue their search for the terrifying AI known as the Entity — which has infiltrated intelligence networks all over the globe — with the world's governments and a mysterious ghost from Hunt's past on their trail. Joined by new allies and armed with the means to shut the Entity down for good, Hunt is in a race against time to prevent the world as we know it from changing forever.

The Final Reckoning lands as a broadly satisfying but noticeably uneven closer to the franchise, with critics consistently split between awe at the practical stunt work and frustration at a sluggish, exposition-heavy first hour that drags before the spectacle kicks in. It's warmer and more sentimental than its predecessors, which some found genuinely moving and others found self-indulgent — and nearly everyone agreed it runs too long.
