The very first film made a me a tom cruise fan. This one has put a stop to that.

Mission Impossible was a promising movie franchise. Tom Cruise took a much loved tv series and brought it to the big screen. While I had issues with the way it was done. Namely making the character of Jim Phelps a traitor and killing off the whole team but Ethan Hunt. I stuck with it. The movies were always supposed to be about the missions. This last one was all about Ethan Hunt, or rather, Tom Cruise.

This movie was a shameless tribute to Tom Cruise' ego. We get it Tom. You like to do your own stunts. You want to be seen as the hero. You're a nice guy. Men should want to be you and women should want to be with you. Enough already!

The plotline was so thin I honestly wondered how much the writers were paid for it.

The talent within the cast that was so underused was both frustrating and painful to watch. Some actors had maybe one moment on the screen. Others were simply there as extras to fill the space. I honestly wondered if the other actors names were used as bait to lure in fans, only for the trap to be that we barely get to see any of them while Tom is hogging the camera.

Congratulations Mr Cruise. You killed this franchise for me. I'm done. I strongly recommend that everyone save themselves the trouble and don't bother with this farce of strung together stunts and cringe worthy dialogue.
