Mission: Impossible – Fallout Movie note: 4 Stars

There are few things in life that are more enjoyable than watching Tom Cruise do things. Even though he's been doing the same thing for 22 years. Really, it's been so long. When Ethan Hunt started on the big screen (once there was a televised version), Bill Clinton occupied the White House and Boris Yeltsin at the Kremlin. The last two were made and dusted off, but Cruise is still saving the world dressed in a leather jacket – without sweating, but often showing now a gray thatch. And this Mission: Impossible, its sixth, can be its best yet, offering not only a sizzling action, but an action that we can largely follow, arriving at the people we care about.

At the top of this charismatic list of Fallout Of course, Cruise himself, as the IMF's # 1 agent (International Missions Force) who, as the film points out, places "individuals" in above "missions". Or, as the movie says, is the kind that "cares as much for saving a man as saving millions". In a world of faceless targets and brute force, it makes him a bit special, says his boss, Secretary Hunley (Alec Baldwin). It's a clever initiative from author-director McQuarrie, the first to have led a second mission: Impossible (there have been four other directors over the years), to highlight this aspect of the long career of Hunt as the agent. In an era of discredited governments, unclear enemies and fuzzy loyalties, Hunt is a man who acts according to his own principles.

Governments, in fact, are dragged through a lot of mud here. The villain, who bears the name of John Lark, thinks it's time to shoot them down for a new world order to be rewritten. "There must be great suffering before a great peace," and so on.

But first, there is a bit of plutonium to be made. Here, there are three spheres that fall into the wrong hands because Hunt chooses to save his friend Luther (Rhames) rather than the radioactive element. He also suffers a lot because these spheres of plutonium are rapidly moving towards Lark, who makes them nuclear bombs. The only chance for the IMF to stop Lark is that Hunt intercepts him while he meets an arms officer called "The White Widow". in Paris. The widow is played by a delightful Kirby (you may remember her as Princess Margaret of the Queen Netflix show). And since it corresponds to Cruise wit for the mind, chutzpah for chutzpah, the hint that The Widow is not a tentative arrangement is a relief.

Since the CIA does not trust the IMF enough, it ensures that its own agent, Walker (Cavill), is with Hunt at all times through this mission. Soon, Ilsa (Ferguson), an agent who does not agree with his own government, and who made an appearance in the previous mission: Impossible, joins them. The episode where Hunt, Walker and later Ilsa together fight a man inside a Parisian toilet, to get to The Widow, is one of the highlights of the many scenes action of the film, well choreographed.

of a guaranteed superhero movie, at the very least, getting this right is not an average achievement. Hunt does everything here – shootings in tunnels, car chases, bike lanes, construction jumps, helicopter parachuting, helicopter clashes, cliff climbs, ever present mask tricks, and even his famous, famous races through the landscapes. Nothing, nothing, looks stale. On the contrary, you may have to take care of your heart beating a bit through a final that McQuarrie goes up and up, and always concludes satisfying.

This final has a surprising setting, Nubra Valley in Ladakh, where a good stranger sorts of tents and white coats to save the populace, which we never see, of smallpox, disease that the only one. India has eradicated while the Indian Army sleeps in one of the most militarized regions of the world.

Do not have everything, can you?
