This time, Cruise’s Ethan Hunt isn’t fighting nihilistic terrorists or vaporous international-espionage networks but an all-powerful artificial intelligence known as “the Entity” that has instant access to any and all online networks and can effectively dupe the world’s tech-reliant militaries into fighting one another. Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, as suggested by that ominous “part one,” seems to care a bit more about its plot, and it’s not hard to see why. This is the movie in which Tom Cruise hangs off a helicopter.
Don’t worry about why anything is happening, writer-director Christopher McQuarrie seemed to be telling us. Its opening scenes breezed through a cavalcade of names and organizations and motivations that practically dared you to understand what was going on. One of the most enchanting aspects of 2018’s Mission: Impossible - Fallout, the last Mission: Impossible film, was the cavalier attitude with which it treated plot exposition.
