The latest chapter in the Mission: Impossible saga has landed with a bang, earning widespread acclaim from critics and an impressive 83% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The eighth installment, touted as the grand finale of the franchise, has been hailed as a thrilling, adrenaline-pumping spectacle, with 62-year-old Tom Cruise’s jaw-dropping stunts taking center stage.
Critics have described the film as “absurdly captivating,” delivering a “dizzying and adrenaline-fueled” conclusion to Ethan Hunt’s decades-long journey.
The second half, in particular, has been singled out as “the most exhilarating 90 minutes in the entire series,” packed with high-octane action that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats.
Cruise’s commitment to performing his own stunts — often compared to the daring feats of silent cinema’s golden age — remains the film’s biggest draw.
From heart-stopping free falls to gravity-defying chases, the grandiose and visually stunning sequences push the boundaries of what’s possible on screen.
