Did not know Pom was French until I looked at her wiki today

 

Pop? Mom?

 

Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious, but I can't talk about it. And I can't talk about why.

(walks off)

 

So much fun. Not my favorite (Fallout hard to beat) but another winner in the best big franchise

 

Hahahaha

 

Honestly

 

There was no fail safe if someone lost the key, which would take me 30 seconds

Also Ethan is nearing the point where I could probably take him let alone entire governments and criminal organizations

 

Even though I knew it was coming from a mile away, Ethan crashing into the side of the train and taking out the gunman was so much more satisfying than I was expecting.

That scene plus the car chase are great examples of how good this series is at actually successfully incorporating humor into the action and stakes of a scene — that despite being some singularly brilliant and powerful agent, there are still plenty times when Ethan is falling on his ass trying to navigate a complicated mess of a fight/chase scene. Obviously not as complicated choreographically as like Jackie Chan, but coming from the same place — need for corny or self-aware one-liners, just have the mega badass drop that persona for a moment simply because things are getting too out of control

 

loved him crashing in and being like what the hell just happened and super disoriented lol

 

she does do a great job with it but that’s also what makes her character the worst in the movie, just completely underwritten and poorly served. unfortunate.

 

She felt a lot like the Ruby Rose character in John Wick 2

 

Round 2 starting soon. In the most humid theatre ever.

 

Funny, when I watch a movie at home I get control the climate

abolish theaters

 

I can't think of a worse movie to watch at home than a 3 hour movie where 50 things are happening at once

 

Na this was a dope theater experience

 

Genuinely confused where y’all are living that watching a movie at home has more distracting than a theater full of strangers loudly eating, talking, looking at their phones, coming and going.

but I’ll stop harping on it. Mission Impossible rules

 

I’ve had PLENTY of negative experiences at the movies, I’ve confronted people with their phones on full brightness, seen a woman bring in a small dog, heard people snoring,

and I still wouldn’t trade it for watching a movie on my 55inch 4K Samsung with a Vizio sound bar, nooooo way
