We recommend that you watch eight movies after seeing the sixth part of the franchise 'Mission: Impossible & # 39;
The films Mission: Impossible are not the most original. They are based on an old television series, and they tend to respect and reference old movies. Of course, we can not find anything else like them now or never thanks to their incredible stunts, which offer history their own iconography. They are a perfect blend of the cinematographic past and the present.
With Mission: Impossible – Fallout Christopher McQuarrie returns to the bar. He is again inspired by classic movies, even if he does not admit or does not realize all his influences. As with his Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation there is a little James Bond, a little Hitchcock, and a little Christopher Nolan, especially The Dark Knight (look at this small side and read this column).
Many critics also compared Fallout to Mad Max: Fury Road . For the movies to watch after this week, I went crazy with my recommendations, except for the recognized title of McQuarrie. I've probably missed more direct tributes while focusing on the safety of Tom Cruise, but these are the essential movies I was thinking of looking at following:
Three Ages (1923)
In running his own death-defying stunts, Tom Cruise became the closest thing to Buster Keaton. Only he does not do it so much to laugh. Keaton has been an action star after being an icon of silent comedy, and his films have had a huge influence on many blockbusters that have appeared in the last century since its launch on the big screen
. T necessarily an inspiration for Cruise in Fallout but has an interesting link. Just as Cruise's notoriously broke his ankle by jumping from one London building to the next (and that's in the movie), Keaton failed to achieve his own jump of building in 1965-19004 [Three Years Ages] . seen on the screen. He even provided additional stuntmen to accompany the wrong fall – once he came back from a three-day recovery.
Three Ages is perhaps not one of Keaton's most cherished works. to be Keaton's first feature as a filmmaker and star. And if you've ever seen DW's The Expiatory Epic of Griffith Intolerance you'll have a kick of this movie sort of spoofing this movie because it's divided into three ages of history , Keating placing in the time of the caves, ancient Rome and the roaring twenties. The infamous waterfall can be found in the last segment.
Sabotage (1936)
You Can not Have a Movie of Mission: Impossible Without At Least a Dink Eye to Alfred Hitchcock, or at least one movie to recommend of his links with the last installment. Previously, we saw the franchise M: I in the order, remind us specifically of Strangers on a Train Notorious The 39 Steps North by the Northwest and The man who knew too much . This time (locates the Beastie Boys), that is Sabotage .
Really, I've thought of North by Northwest again, which I am very concerned about watching today's action movies, because it remains one of my favorite pioneers of the kind of tentpoles we see so regularly now. The fight on the cliff at the end of Fallout recalls, for me (as any cliff fighting), the sequence of Mount Rushmore in the 1959 thriller.
But as the Combat combines with another simultaneous combat sequence, with the threat of a nuclear explosion keeping us on the edge of our seats, the best Hitchcock connection is Sabotage . His memorable bus bomb scene has become a landmark in the cinema as evidence of Hitchcock being the master of suspense. The plot of the film also concerns international terrorists whose bombing plot must be thwarted in time.
Ulysses (1954)
The appearance of the epic "Odyssey" of Homer in Fallout can have an unintentional meaning. In addition to its literal use as a prop book in which to hold Ethan Hunt's latest self-destructing communication from his boss, that's it. But that does not mean that critics will no longer read in the specificity of the chosen text. Keith Uhlich of Slate, for example, wrote:
"No one before was more blessed, nor will ever be anymore" is how Ulysses, the wandering protagonist of this ancient Greek epic, described Achilles, confined to the underworld after his fatal die by the arrow on the battlefield Trojan. " Fallout" continues at least the first part of the feeling of Ulysses, missing no opportunity to support the Cruise's indomitable terrestrial ego as his character runs, jumps, falls, fists, dives into the sky and dangles "
And Alan Mehanna d & rsquo; An-Hanahar details, in his review, the correspondence of the characters (Sloan = Calypso, Walker = the Cyclops, Julia = the Sirens, and Solomon Lane = Charybdis) .I like this analysis except for the Julia part. to be that Ilsa is the Mermaid, but Julia is definitely Penelope, the wife of Ulysses who thinks that his man is lost at sea forever and is being pursued by potential replacements. Hunt may not be looking to find Julia at home, but it's there that he lands in the last act of Fallout and she not only has a pretender but a new handsome .
Surprisingly, Hollywood has not tried to make the Odyssey a blockbuster-oriented big-budget effects even after the worldwide success of the Troy based on the Illiad . There are inexpensive and forgettable adaptations and there are influenced works, such as O Brother, Where Art Thou? but Paramount's 1954 Ulysses with Kirk Douglas is the best and most accessible and most faithful effort for now. And it's not bad at all to be that way.
Blank Point (1967)
While McQuarrie had clear specific influences to the mind when making Rogue Nation there n & # There was only one film that he could name as a source of inspiration for a part of Fallout : Blank Point . He told Erik Davis of Fandango in a video interview:
"The most important thing was not to look for as many specific inspirations." Rogue Nation "I had very specific inspirations on which I am Inspired and that I refer generously Inside jokes and easter eggs And in this film, Rob Hardy and I did not do much Rob is a great lover of " The Thing "by John Carpenter, and" Blank Point "was a film that he showed me." John Boorman's "Blank Point" is a film with which he came to see me very early. I made a small reference to "Blank Point" as a nod to Rob
"But everything else was discovered after the fact. We went back, there is the fight scene, the shooting is happening in London. When we started looking at the dailies, we were like, my god, it looks like Alcatraz in 'Blank Point', but we were not there to do it when we got it. fact. It was more an inspiration than an influence. Or an influence rather than an inspiration. "
So, what was the intended reference?" McQuarrie probably talks about the character of Henry Cavill named August Walker, which could be a nod to the main character of Lee Marvin, Walker, in ] Blank Point The Alcatraz Part is the opening of the movie where Walker is dubbed and left for dead by his partner in a courier theft.The rest of the movie is his attempt to hunt down the guy and recover his share possibly from other bad big ones Would not it be more appropriate that the character of Cavill be named Reese after the seducer, however?
Deadly Encounter (1982)
The early 80's was important for helicopter fans.In 1983, Blue Thunder was a critical success and at the box office (especially with all our fathers This was followed by the television series at s uccès Airwolf (which proved to be more popular than the derived series of ). But ask most of the helicopter junkies and they will name a TV movie as the best helicopter action movie of the era. Originally aired on CBS, Deadly Encounter obviously costs much less than something like a movie Mission: Impossible but its helicopter stunts could still remain the fan favorite.
Deadly Encounter stars Larry Hagman as a pilot trying to rescue his ex-girlfriend from gangsters, and much of the film engages him to fly a Hughes 500C in pursuit or pursued by the wicked. There are low-level waterfalls, aerial fights, loops, and a climax where the Hagman character passes from the side of a biplane to a landing gear of the SA-341 Gazelle in the air. He then fights a guy on the side of the helicopter and climbs into the cockpit once he has thrown the gangster and pilot at their death.
The action sequences are not as well directed as Fallout [Theoperationsandthesuccessofthe helicopter were thrilling, but William A. Graham, the pilot, knew the path well. Almost 10 years ago, he directed the TV movie Birds of Prey also for CBS, another favorite of helicopter aficionados who has a few less stunts but which is nonetheless a technical hit. . improved effort. Birds of Prey shows a 500 Hughes sprawling an Alouette II during a collision at Fallout
Discussion on the action of A helicopter would not be complete without mentioning Alan Purwin, a helicopter stuntman who died in a plane crash during the production of the film American Made (in which Cruise makes another impressive flying shot, this time with a small plane). Purwin was very important for advances in aerial cascades and aerial cinematography, and I wonder what he would have thought of Cruise and McQuarrie and their astonishing team of aerial stunts in Fallout .
The man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015)
For humor, the most suitable Henry Cavill film to recommend would be Justice League the crossover of World of DC who saw the return of the actor Superman representation. In the film, Cavill's Man of Steel has a strange upper lip at times, a result of Cavill's mustache – cultivated and maintained for his role in Fallout – which must be removed numerically from the reshoot sequence . But Justice League is a bad movie, and I will certainly not take a place here to recommend it.
But Cavill has the honor of being the only actor of the new ] Mission: Impossible slice to highlight this list (although Pegg receives a special mention below ). And it is thanks to Cruise and the franchise M: I . For a few months, Cruise was tied up to replace George Clooney in the role of American spy Napoleon Solo in The Man From UNCLE but he had to give up because of a conflict with the Shot from Mission: Impossible: Rogue Nation . He was replaced by none other than his future co-star with broad shoulders M: I
Like the Mission: Impossible films, tragically underestimated UNCLE . is based on a television series from the 1960s. U.N.C.L.E. In fact, it debuted in a few years, and it was not just a mere knockoff of James Bond – 007's creator, Ian Fleming, helped create the show and apparently got it. Idea of the solo character. For all that forced entertainment journalists do when they ask if McQuarrie would run a Bond or if Cavill would like to be the next Bond, there's no reason. But then, Cavill going from U.N.C.L.E. to M: I would also appear exaggerated on the front of the spy film. However, the U.N.C.L.E. film and Fallout could not be more different, the first being a jauntier effort retaining the time period from its source for a light retro fare.
Hell's Club: Secrets of Bath (1945)
One of the most memorable scenes of Fallout is the fight between Cruise and Cavill and Liang Yang. Just when you thought that the fights in the restroom were all there, did that, to the point that the mashup master Antonio Maria da Silva had paid homage and incorporated so many classics as a whole bathroom Hell & # 39; s Club . The eight-minute short film creates a narrative by editing together excerpts of True Lies The Matrix and Resident Evil: Afterlife as well as many other films. with scenes taking place in a public John
There are many other missing from the mix, including The Man of UNCLE Royal Casino ] [19659004Terminator3:Theinstructionofmachines Ninja Assassin The Warriors The Man of Nowhere Freebie and Bean [19659005]] Bad Boys The Raid 2 and of course The World's End which is really recommended if you now want to see Mission : Impossible The regular Simon Pegg fights against the extraterrestrials in the toilets. I'm probably forgetting a ton more that might have suited
But Hell's Club: Bathroom Secrets is not just a super cut or a collage of action sequences and similar tropes (there are heads in the toilet compilation, though). Da Silva always packs her videos to the point where they are almost too crowded but do not really reach this breaking point. He kept this one short and precise. Of course, if it makes another one (I would really rather not dilute that one's brilliance), the already iconic Cavill Arm Cooldown should probably be there.

November 13: Attack on Paris (2018)
Movie location choices are not usually made in response to actual events, but the Fallout Paris sequences were not just a random decision to set up for McQuarrie. As he told the press at the film's premiere in the City of Lights, the vast Paris segment was made in tribute to those lost and affected by the terrorist attacks of November 13, 2015. Quoted by Deadline :
and saw what happened here and my heart was broken. This was not the Paris I knew. I immediately called Tom and told him I want to take the movie to Paris & # 39; Some were worried, worried that we were not safe. Tom said, "That's exactly why we're going to show the world that he's safe."
To fully understand the tragic events, at least for those of us who were not there tonight, the new documentary distributed by Netflix [19659004] November 13: Attack on Paris covers a lot of ground in its 161 minutes, divided into three parts. The first part focuses on explosions at the Stade de France and shootings and bombings in several Parisian cafes and bars. The second and the third part are dedicated to the details of the shooting and the taking of hostages of the Eagles of Death Metal concert at the Bataclan.
November 13 is directed by Gédéon and Jules Naudet, 9/11 one of the most important documentaries on the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in America. This one is very different, with fewer videos in hand and more face-to-face interviews offering an oral story of the night with heartbreaking personal perspectives. The documentary is certainly not easy or fun to watch, but it is very good and deserves to be seen out of respect for the people involved and the 130 who have died. Fallout may be a love letter to Paris as a result of the tragedy, but it is the true tribute.
Watch it on Netflix.
