IMF agent Ethan Hunt once again goes rogue when he realises that, for the sake of humanity, he must destroy a terrifying weapon that his bosses are desperate to track down and use: an all-powerful AI that has already gained sentience. But Ethan and his loyal team are not the only parties vying to obtain the key that controls this powerful device.

A star rating of 5 out of 5.

Patrick Cremona

The seventh instalment in the long-running Mission: Impossible franchise sees IMF agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) tackle his most menacing threat yet: an AI weapon known as "the Entity". The weapon has been causing significant disruption to the world's digital infrastructure, and so aided by his accomplices -including series newcomer Hayley Atwell - Hunt races to stop various nefarious players accessing the key to control it. The film is the first half of a planned two-parter, but audiences needn't worry about being short-changed. There are more than enough high-octane stunts and anxiety-inducing moments to set pulses racing, and the film adeptly tees up its successor while offering a satisfying narrative arc of its own. The story is occasionally a little unclear and there are some minor lulls in momentum due to exposition-heavy scenes - but the set pieces are so thrilling and Cruise's exploits so breathtakingly death-defying that any slight falters are easily forgiven. This is the epitome of popcorn cinema.
