Okayyy, i just watched the last Mission Impossible movie and have some thoughts:
• Luther noooo 😭😭😭 I always thought it would be either Ethan or Benji
• Good thing they kept Paris, I absolutely loved her
• Grace, I'm sorry but I still dislike her character, in my humble opinion she's just a replacement for Ilsa and writers didn't really use her potential, rushed her arc which leads to another point ->
• Benji, am I the only one or was he kind of skipped? I mean, he was less noticeable, got less screen time and also, replaced by Grace. He and Paris, great duo, love that collapsed lung scene when he instructed both her and Grace, I felt engaged. But other scenes? He was mostly a prop, intelligent character to deliver complicated lines about bombs, AI and some sort of tech shit. Where did his all sense of humor go? Even Ethan had his comic relief moment after he and Grace escaped Gabriel's torture dungeon.
• stunt performance - masterpiece but too long. Not much, but still.
• Ending? I knew they all would live, writers would make the open ending, exactly the same as in other movies but I was waiting for something more or Ethan's death (I'm glad they didn't kill Benji though, without him the ending would suck)
• Whole plot? Good, but the propaganda was quite visible, at least they didn't make it so obvious.
• Female roles? Love all of them and the fact that in every area (military, government, navy, I don't know how American departments work, forgive me I'm European 🤷♀️) but love the fact that there was a lot of women; not only men rule the world
• Ethan, my poor sad agent was actually even more sad than in previous movies, hardly any comic reliefs, but he was fighting for the whole world, one of his best friends died and he CRIED. Glad for this. Cruise did a fantastic job, forever love this character, I will always defend Ethan, Always
