Tom Cruise Movies: In Theaters: Mission Impossible Final Reckoning (2025)

 The entire movie I was waiting for the wing walking which I had heard about.  It came in the final 20 minutes.  

This movie has a formidable villain in Gabriel (Esai Morales) who seems unstoppable at the first of the show.  He has set up a trap in which he has Luther Stickell (Ving Rhames) in a trap, either save yourself and many people die, or disarm the bomb and only you die.  He chooses to save the any people and is killed.  Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is again all over the place doing impossible things.  It seems Gabriel is always a step ahead.  They are battling over a key which would give control of the AI which is taking over the world.  

One mistake that Gabriel makes is to betray his side kick, Paris (Pom Klementieff) who then becomes an asset knowing inside doings of Gabriel's network.  Grace (Hayley Aywell) continues as Hunt's love interest and spy.  Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg) is a more active part of the team and is in harm's way.  

The plane walking comes in when it appears that all is lost, and Hunt jumps from his plane to that of Gabriel, and has to walk the wing to continue the fight.  

Plenty of action and lots of fun.  I think this may be the final Mission Impossible.
