Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning | Official Trailer


Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning | Official Trailer (2025 Movie) - Tom Cruise
Paramount Pictures

Fantastic! Amazing! Stupendous! Ridiculous! Over-the-top! Hilarious! Shoot, any and all extreme adjectives can be applied to this movie.

Basically, we've got 62 year old Tom Cruise trying to get his self killed doing what he loves to do, which is making wild movies. The show alternates between extremely violent action scenes and people talking about the Entity.

This time the villain is an AI (artificial intelligence) computer program known as the Entity. It is trying to take over the world by launching of all the missiles in the world that are equipped with nuclear warheads. This will kill everyone on the planet and then the Entity will be victorious. Sounds like a stupid plan, but hey, what do I know about world domination?

The underwater scenes with the nuclear submarines are out of this world. How in the world did they filmed them? They built their own underwater sound stage in a zillion gallon tank of water. Tank must have been a hundred feet across and probably just as deep. It took weeks to fill it. You could make a movie just about how they filmed these scenes, and somebody should.
