Michelle’s Take On Mission Impossible: Fallout
By on July 30, 2018
Mission Impossible. I don’t get it! I mean, at this point don’t we all know it’s more like Mission POSSIBLE? Just saying.
I’m not much of a movie person, but still. I like to think I can appreciate a well done movie. Well, like a lot of you, Dan and I went to the theater over the weekend to see the latest installment of Mission Impossible. Which got a lot of hype! I mean, a lot of hype! People saying it’s like Tom Cruise doesn’t age, it’s his best yet, the franchise’s best. So, while he did have to drag me a little bit, I was looking forward to seeing what all the hype was about, because I don’t think I’ve seen one of them before. I mean, how many have there been?
Aside from falling asleep on like 4 different occasions… here’s my synopsis of the movie… which will not spoil a thing for you. I promise.
Tom Cruise gets a mission… should he choose to accept it. And of course, that mission is very dangerous. And very important. Humanity depends on it.
Incredible cinematography and wild stunts.
Fight scene with lots of stuff breaking, except for Tom Cruise of course, who is apparently half robot.
Gorgeous woman in gown.
Car chase… motorcycle chase… car chase.
Another fight scene.
Another beautiful woman who looks hungry.
Another car chase.
I fall asleep.
Awake to a fight scene.
Then, a bomb that will blow in 15 minutes, that’s not supposed to be disable-able.
LIKE 30 MINUTES GO BY… I fall asleep again… wake up… AND THERE’S STILL 7 MINUTES ON THE CLOCK. WHAT?
ANOTHER 15 MINUTES OF CHASE SCENES, STILL 4 MINUTES ON THE CLOCK.
I fall asleep again.
Another fight scene.
Chase scene.
Another 10 minutes goes by.
Still fighting.
Still ONE MINUTE ON THE CLOCK!!!
I fall asleep. Wake up. Still 20 seconds on the clock.
Like disable it or let it blow already!!!! My legs are asleep and I’m ready to go squint into the daylight.
Finally. It ended.
And, we did that whole thing when you leave the theater. I asked Dan, so, did you like it? And he’s like… YAAAAAAAAAAS!! And, I’m like, Noooooooooooo. Seriously. At one point I was hoping for an explosion. Movie over. No more sequels.
