Hvis man ikke allerede glædede sig som et lille action-elskende barn til den danske premiere på ’Mission: Impossible – Fallout’ den 2. august, så er forventningerne lige blevet skruet astronomisk højt i vejret.
Filmen, der ligesom den foregående ‘Rogue Nation’ er instrueret af Christopher McQuarrie, blev forleden vist til amerikanske kritikere, og reaktionerne er ikke bare gode; De er ovenud galoperende ekstatiske.
Indiewires anmelder David Erlich kalder blandt andet den sjette ’Mission: Impossible’-film for »den bedste actionfilm siden ’Mad Max: Fury Road’«, mens Playlist’s Kimber Meyers mener, at ’Fallout’s »batshit crazy« klimaks svarer til »adskillige orgasmer«. Vanity Fairs Richard Lawson bruger slet og ret ordet »mesterværk«, og The Guardians Nigel M. Smith skriver på Twitter, at »’Fallout’ er 2,5 time, hvori Tom Cruise beviser, at han er Superman. Jeg elskede hvert et vanvittigt øjeblik«. Meget tyder dermed på, at superstjernens nye, halsbrækkende stunts har været besværet værd.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE — FALLOUT is easily the best action movie since Fury Road. just god-level stuff. the highest praise I can give a movie: I’m not even mad it’s making me late to Radiohead.

#MissionImpossibleFallout: There needs to be a new MI movie every summer, because no other blockbuster franchise is, pound for pound, as entertaining and engrossing as this one has become.

The acting Rebecca Ferguson can do through a fucking motorcycle helmet is amazing. The CGI justice league mustache was worth it because Cavill’s “Fallout” bathroom fight is legendary. Tom Cruise you’re a psycho, never change. #MissionImpossibleFallout

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE may be @TomCruise & @ChrisMcQuarrie’s THE DARK KNIGHT. This is EASILY the best active film franchise, the best action movie of the summer, and between 10 & 100 times better than ANY Marvel movie. Cruise is the greatest movie star there is, was, & EVER will be.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE — FALLOUT is a masterpiece?

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE FALLOUT is the rare true direct sequel in this series. And we learn the most about Ethan Hunt. It’s the SKYFALL of M:I movies. Also, yes, it’s insanely exhilarating.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – FALLOUT. This movie is sex.

Mission: Impossible – Fallout is like tiptoeing across a sky-high tightrope for 2.5 hours. Flawless momentum, genuinely jaw-dropping setpieces. Henry Cavill is a fantastic addition. The best action movie since Fury Road.

#MissionImpossibleFallout is 2.5 hours of Tom Cruise proving he’s Superman. I loved every insane minute.

HOLY. ****.
MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE — FALLOUT is a freakin’ cinematic shot of adrenaline to the heart.
The most complete, balanced and awe-inspiring MISSION.
They don’t make movies like this anymore — and I don’t know if we’ll ever see another star like @TomCruise in our lifetime. pic.twitter.com/VtZc5A1TcX
