Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One 4K 2023 2160p DV HDR WEB-DL

Tom Cruise in 2021 will not only fly airplanes, but also do all sorts of other crazy things. Together with director Christopher McQuarrie, he is filming the third consecutive installment of Mission Impossible. In the last one he fell from a parachute, before that he was hanging on the door of an airplane taking off. Now Cruise, judging by the shots from the set, runs on moving trains and from the springboard takes off on a motorcycle into the abyss. What exactly the movie will be about - is still unclear, but it is obvious that the authors are not going to surprise us with the plot. This is another parade of incredible stunts, performed, of course, live. We can't wait to find out what Cruise and McQuory have hidden for us this time and how exactly it will be realized cinematically.

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One 4K Review
A certain artificial intelligence threatens the security of the planet and begins to control all global systems. Powers and special services are alarmed, but quickly realize the essence: the possession of the "Being" gives infinite power over the world, so operatives and criminal impostors are in pursuit of the desired object. The solution to the issue is to find a pair of keys, where Ethan Hunt's (Tom Cruise) team with assistant Benji (Simon Pegg) and technician Luther (Ving Rhames) also get involved. In addition to agents (Shay Wigham) interested in Hunt's failure, the adventure involves the enigmatic Grace (Hayley Atwell) and a whole group of psychotic terrorists led by the murky Gabriel (Esai Morales).

Tom Cruise once said in an interview that there are no impossible missions for him. Wrinkles feat is not a hindrance: in the 62nd year of the actor confidently continues to test fate and defy the forces of gravity. As it turned out, after the conquest of the Burj Khalifa, killing chases on motorcycles and equilibrista on air transport is still somewhere to aspire to - adrenaline junkie will always find a way to shturit. Ethan Hunt is a hero of our time, and we venture to guess that he is the only one: Indiana Jones has just had his last crusade, and Craig's James Bond decided to tragically retire a couple of years ago. Meanwhile, Hunt continues to save the world from new rounds of the Cold War, rampant international terrorism, and ingratiating geniuses in the secret service's underhanded games. Creative duo McQuarrie and Cruise expectedly raises the stakes: now a friendly squad of agents confronts an artificial intelligence, the control of which will determine the ruler of the world (about this only to fantasize on the background of the creative successes of ChatGPT). The budget of "Mission" naturally grows, and the seventh adventure is thoroughly divided into two parts - now what is not an epic saga?

The seventh "Mission: Impossible" is not just a high-octane technothriller with ultra-modern contrivances (devices of the future, know-how with silicone masks and so on). Rather the opposite: through the topical sci-fi plot of the tape gallantly knocks to the forebears - Alfred Hitchcock and his spy thrillers. For example, here is a very jaunty reference to "The 39 Steps": handcuffed Tom Cruise and Hayley Atwell comically evade the Roman police and intelligence services, like Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll 80-plus years ago. There's a fight on the roof of a train - an ironclad trope of any spy classic, an almost direct bridge to 1996 and Brian de Palma, which started the movie franchise. The seventh installment still carries on at locomotive speed, but this time even more elegant and old-fashioned. McQuarrie is a free-flying director, working with Cruise according to the old scheme: the stunt is the bones, and the plot - the muscles that can be built up (only the authors of "Mission" are capable of such an inversion), furnishing Cruise's stuntman antics with inventive complications. One-handed driving a small-sized Fiat on the streets of Rome, jumping off a cliff on a motorcycle (the actor was preparing for it for a year, calling it his most dangerous stunt) and climbing on a train falling into the abyss - in general, for high blood sugar, you know who to thank.

But the reason for the endless joy isn't just because the seventh "Mission" is a top-notch movie carbohydrate. While the agents collect the keys, McQuarrie solidly and intelligently organizes his constructor: action - only the best, give room for lyrics and sentiment - please, but in moderation (enough flashbacks and one tragic permutation in the plot), to reveal the villain - necessarily, but not forgetting about the correct proportions. Equality in the plot - done: here you have masculine agents and militant agents, smart specialists and dodgy femme fatale. More spy vicissitudes, not dubbed action - done: the action is looped in a series of clever sequences with cat-and-mouse, disguises and hand-to-hand key transfers.

In other words, the new "Mission" is a well-tempered blockbuster that allows no misfires and activates all pleasure centers. If Brad Bird, let's say, in the fourth movie began to overturn the concept of the franchise, McQuarrie and Cruise simply perfected these reforms. From a spy thriller "Mission" turned into an art of pure equilibrium, in an intricate circus act, in many ways put the question: is it reasonable to consider Tom Cruise an actor? Or, perhaps, he's already ten years as a stuntman, with each stunt idea taking away jobs from colleagues? It doesn't really matter - the important thing is to live with a sense of relieving hope that Ethan Hunt will always hit the stop button a couple seconds before the world explodes.
