Mission: Impossible 8 Box Office Hits Major Domestic Milestone & Closes In On OG 1996 Movie In Franchise's Chart
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning excels.

I think the pandemic and strike destroyed these last two. I think the pandemic forced them to cut the movie into 2 to make a due date, which stretched it REALLY thin, while incredibly making both incredibly bloated at the same time. And then when the first one didn't capture the same box office glory Fallout did, there was tinkering in between the two, which led to a rewrite in the second half of the story in part 2 to have it make almost zero sense.I must be crazy for thinking this is a bottom-3 MI of the series. I thought the acting/dialogue was spoof level bad.
I think it’s clear after watching the last four that Cruise took over the reigns from McQuarrie after Fallout because the overall quality fell off a cliff.
Seems like it was written, directed and acted by ChatGPT. The Gabriel character was like an Austin Powers villain and no Ferguson/Kirby really hurt it. Crappy way to go out.I think the pandemic and strike destroyed these last two.

def agree on no ferguson/Kirby. Pom and Agent Carter (can't remember her name), just didn't have the same chemistry those two did with Cruise and the movie suffered for it.Seems like it was written, directed and acted by ChatGPT.

I don't think you are crazy although I disagree. I thought this last film was a really good send off. I just watched it again with a friend and it held up for me. I think what hurt this is the split of the last two movies. It felt like they split it up in the wrong places which made part 1 feel incomplete. Splitting up final stories is really really hard and if you don't do it in the right place it doesn't work.I must be crazy for thinking this is a bottom-3 MI of the series.

i thought the last of the new Apes trilogy that end with WAR was the best capper of a trilogy in a long time. One of my favorites ever.I don't think you are crazy although I disagree.

I have seen long running franchises really struggle to keep up the quality so I expected at some point the franchise to run out of steam. We have seen in the Bond films, the Bourne franchise, Star Trek, Planet of the Apes, Pink Panther, etc. I thought it was time for this version of MI to finish up. It was a great run IMO.
I thought Bourne was a perfect trilogy thru Ultimatum then they kept going. Always happens.I don't think you are crazy although I disagree. I thought this last film was a really good send off.

Now I have to wait for the new 4K box set to come out so I can get it. I have been watching this franchise so long I have a combo of DVD, Blu Ray and some 4K.
