10/10 is this the greatest franchise ever ? Man the way I loved this movie you won’t understand. It gave me the uncertainty of these beloved characters (other than Ethan) having a real chance of dying which I haven’t felt that feeling of suspense since MI:1. You just know by Henry Cavil’s face in this movie he a villain. And honestly Lane has to be one of my favorite villains of the past decade because you genuinely feat the man. Even when you think he ain’t in control he is which is incredibly scary. This is easily the best Mission Impossible yet and just such an amazingly fun watch. The stunts here are literally insane. Tom Cruise has the biggest balls in Hollywood easily.

No rating because this was a two part watch and mostly a background watch. MI7 next and MI8 tomorrow!
Only comment to add is that the expanded aspect ratio scenes at home are so cool. Stunts with those kinds of visuals are amazing.
