Spoilers for Mission: Impossible -Dead Reckoning Part 1 can be found ahead. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya!
Like many fans of Tom Cruise out there, I have really enjoyed the actor’s collaborations with director Christopher McQuarrie, which started with the release of Jack Reacher in 2012 (though McQuarrie also worked on Valkyrie) and continued with Mission: Impossible films, starting with Rogue Nation. In general, I love what the two men have been able to accomplish together. The Mission movies are daring, splashy, have stunning cinematography, and are incredibly engaging with audiences. But the latest Dead Reckoning- Part 1 has some problems, and my major issue with it is not the complaint most people seem to have.
