At the movie theater : Mission: Impossible – Death toll, Part 1
Tom Cruise returns as Ethan Hunt for a seventh installment of the adventures of the Impossible Mission Force. In this first part, which lasts nearly three hours, Ethan Hunt must face a new enemy, artificial intelligence, called the Entity (Esai Morales). Pom Klementieff (Paris, an Entity sidekick), Rebecca Ferguson (Ilsa Faust), Hayley Atwell (Grace, a high-profile thief) and Vanessa Kirby (White Widow, aka Alanna Mitsopolis) are in the game. “It’s not just the scale of the action or the danger of the maneuvers, but how it’s all filmed. Many close-ups allow you to feel the emotions of the characters and help to develop the relationship between them. It is without saying a word that Tom Cruise and Hayley Atwell raise their performance. From our seats, we watch them, holding our breath until the credits roll. Amazed, but impatient, we realize that we have until June 28, 2024 to catch our breath,” journalist Pascal LeBlanc told us in his review published on July 12.
