It was astute casting of Superman in Fallout, I never thought it would work but it was a masterstroke.1. CR
2. MI:Fallout
3. Skyfall
4. MI1

Cavill was a good antagonist.
It’s really tough with all the MIs from 4 onwards. I did a rewatch not too long ago (just before DR1) they’re all really really good and to me it sort of comes down to how you rate the stunts.I think Rogue, Fallout and DR slightly shade GP (which is still a touch cheesy) but I couldn’t fault anyone for any of them sitting there.No Rogue Nation in top 5? Woah

Tis, that is 4.Ghost Protocol is the one where they scale the building in Dubai?
That's my fav, whichever one it is.
4 then 7 for me. The airport scene was brilliant in Dead Reckoning.Tis, that is 4.
Rogue Nation 5 - the hold the breath, the aeroplane and bike chase.
Fallout 6 - HALO jump, Bathroom brawl, chase through Paris, Helicopter chase.
Dead Reckoning 7 - Abu Dhabi airport, Rome chase, Venice Chase, Bike off cliff.
Thats the pure beauty of these movies, you can watch them and immerse yourself totally in that world for a couple of hours.1- fallout
2- casino royale
3- skyfall
4- rogue nation
5- dead reckoning/MI1
But I would gladly rewatch any of them anytime
Thats nothing. There is at least 10 in this franchise.My god how many of these movies are there

Of those 7 MI movies, I think MI2 is the only one, where if you skipped it entirely it doesnt effect the "MI universe" whatsoever?7 mission impossibles (but you could start at 4 or 5 if you just want the new “crazy Tom Cruise stunt” section).
I think Bond is 24? Craig has 5?
Casino Royale, Quantim of Solace, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die.
Yes MI4 is when the franchise had like a soft reboot, however in terms of characters, Kittridge/Luther who were introduced in MI1 and Ethan's wife in MI3, so those movies have characters/stories that are very relevant to future storylines of theYou could probably go from 1 to 4, from memory, as 4 feels like a bit of a reset.
I think by any measure at all it’s easily the last of the MIs. You could probably argue that the first one is lower on action but it has the iconic vault heist and the train scene, 2 doesn’t have any real moments (the opening credits I suppose).MI2 definitely worth watching for the both the Australia and the over the top nature of the action. It's John Woo, it's not poorly done, but it is ridiculous in a good high production value way. Also the Hans Zimmer score makes everything better.
If you were wanting to have some fun watching a movie for a couple hours, then there's no way it's the bottom of the MI list. If you want to pay attention and be invested in a story, then yeah, maybe.
I think Rush and Shine has aged horrendously as an Oscar win but that’s probably a hot takes thread.
For the record I enjoyed Valkyrie. I also enjoyed eyes wide shut and Vanilla Sky but they weren’t received particularly well.
Fair. Can’t say I’ve read much about it since it came out but I remember it being VERY poorly received at the time.Agreed, though I think I'd go Fiennes in The English Patient just ahead of Cruise for 1996. Both well ahead of Rush though.
Eyes Wide Shut has been pretty well reappraised and is as top tier as anything else from Kubrick, and as acclaimed as Magnolia for Cruise's best. From its Wikipedia page:
In 2012, Slant Magazine ranked the film as the second greatest of the 1990s.[134] The British Film Institute ranked the film at No. 19 on its list of "90 great films of the 1990s".[135] In 2022, IndieWire named the film the best movie of the 1990s.[136] The film was listed at number 61 in the BBC's list of the 100 greatest American films of all time.[137]
What's the Phillip Seymour Hoffman one? That was good from memory.Tis, that is 4.
Rogue Nation 5 - the hold the breath, the aeroplane and bike chase.
Fallout 6 - HALO jump, Bathroom brawl, chase through Paris, Helicopter chase.
Dead Reckoning 7 - Abu Dhabi airport, Rome chase, Venice Chase, Bike off cliff.
