After waiting for a couple of years finally, another impossible mission is initiated by "Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One" with one of my favorite actors Tom Cruise and I know there is no one who doesn't love the amazing stunts from him! And for the series of Mission Impossible has to pay much homage to Cruise for his dedication and relentless hard work. I am not a professional movie reviewer or trying to provide a spoiler but I am going to share my own feeling after I watched the movie last Saturday!
I am a big fan of the movie and I couldn't wait long to watch it I had downloaded the pirated copy with disgusting quality to quench my thirst as I am living much farther from the Beijing city center and usually very few international movies are shown nearby cineplex but I found this one here as I haven't seen the recent transformer or the guardian of the galaxy there last time! So, I didn't make a single second late to grab the tickets for the show at 8:35 pm (Beijing Standard Time) and enjoyed the movie full of fun, tension, amazing action scenes, and serious conversations.
Usually in my country, in Dhaka city, very few cineplexes are going to show these international movies and to find a ticket is so difficult there as the madness is beyond the limit there. The movies like Avengers, Avatar, Mission Impossible, and other Marvel movies make these few cineplexes overcrowded and out of tickets within some minutes after they are being available. But here in China, I have seen completely different scenes within the first couple of days of release here I have not seen such craze and no hurry in tickets, and the seats were almost 50% empty which can not be imagined in my country!
Let's jump into the movie now with the opening of Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One which is completely on the basis of introducing the new enemy f the whole world and the main villain: an artificially intelligent as termed as the "Entity" in the movie. A Russian submarine, Sevastopol is down with its own missile by the Entity's power which going to reveal completely in the next part. And the whole plot is designed to control the Entity by all the superpower groups from the real worlds and the undercover worlds to collect the keys to take control.
Another big reveal of Mission: Impossible 7 is that the main villain as of now Gabriel's relation with Ethan's pre-IMF (Impossible Mission Force) life which has not been revealed in the past series. And now Gabriel became the core character as only he knows the details of the purpose of the keys and the Entity secrets though Cruise has come to know about the Submarine at the last from the Gbriel's assistance who was killed by Gabriel to keep the secret more secret. And this is the reason Gabriel was not killed in this part which has made the next part more meaningful.
Rebecca Ferguson's Ilsa is no more which was an important character from Rogue, but facilitates the space for Grace's (Hayley Atwell) role, the twist has been done and Grace became a member of the IMF. In the whole movie, it is revealed that Grace was an orphan who was hired to find the keys to be rich in the life of a thief and she was in the game to steal the key. After Ilsa's death, Ethan, Luther, and Benji give Grace the same choice they received at some point in their past: join the IMF or live a life in hiding and she accepted the joining the IMF as a new member.
As usual, the action scenes are terrible throughout the movie though I think the action scenes with the cars while getting out Grace from police custody is a little bit exaggerated which can make a shorter one by adding some different strategy to flee from the multiple entities from the spots. Though the finishing was amazing that scene it was a little bit time-consuming in my opinion.
And, for the rest of the actions are really amazing which reveals the hard work of the team. The jumping scene from the bike to catch the running train and the fighting on the train roof was excellent. But for me, the best scene was after the explosion happened on the bridge on the rail track which was amazing inside the last shuttle bus of the train!
It is undoubtedly the creating PLOT for part two and as a fan, as usual we always see the finishing with great success in Mission Impossible but this time we have to finish with the tension of the next part as the main part of the mission is still vague, to be honest. So, in the story-making part we haven't experienced the true capability of the entity but experienced some illusionary system hacking which lead the IMF team to use the analog systems. So, and the mission to kill the entity is really necessary while others are trying to grab it to be the most powerful in the world which can bring massive destruction with supreme potential capability provided by the entity.
In conclusion, I am strongly suggesting you have the experience of the great mission with Ethan. Though Mission Impossible 7 has come to an end on Gabriel's plan for the Entity which is going to be the biggest mission for Ethan to find out about the location everyone from the submarine is dead. And this is unclear in a whole plot which is likely being saved for even bigger plot reveals in Mission: Impossible 8. This part of the movie with the AI Entity in the sequel has attracted the whole audience including me as AI is the hottest topic around the world. And I am eagerly waiting to watch the next part in June 2024.
Thanks for your attention and time for reading my feelings about Mission Impossible 7, hope to bring you a new movie in the future. If you have any comments, don't hesitate, I will try my best to answer.
Have a nice day!
