This franchise is my favorite action franchise ever. Besides the second one I loved each and every one. I will personally disagree on one point you made though. You mentioned that they are t that memorable. Maybe it’s because I’ve seen each one a bunch of times but I remember tons of scenes, plot points, or sequences on the previous ones. I actually remember lines as well. Maybe because I’m a fanatic. Lol.
Either way I’ve akready seen Fallout twice and can’t waitbto see it again. So much fun!
I hear you. I probably should have prefaced that comment with "As a casual fan". There are plenty of reasons to be a big fan of this fun series. They didn't turn me into a fanatic but I am glad that you enjoy them and they keep making entertaining installments.
Thanks! Always enjoy your reviews. Lots of nerdy stuff which is right up my alley. I believe you were actually one of my earlier follows due to your name. Lol
Anyway, yeah I love the MI films. While yes...just a “tad” unrealistic. Lol. They provide as you mentioned a ton of anazibgbabd fun action sequences. Despite Cruise being a bonafide lunatic in his personal life...he’s a lunatic that goes above and beyond in his craft. Ever see his film Edge of Tomorrow? Fantastic sci fi action film!
Edge of Tomorrow (or Live Die Repeat depending on when/where you saw it) is one of my favorite Sci-Fi movies of all time. I thought they nailed the video game feel of repeatedly playing a mission until you get it right. Such a clever/fun idea.
Absolutely!!! I initially though “that looks fun...”I’ll check it out “ and when I went to see it, was totally blown away with how much I absolutely loved it. I love being surprised and wowed by films now. This was one that made me feel that.
Oh yeah. I have seen so many movies that when I see any thing original it really impresses me. Just when I think that everything has already been done... some creative people find a way to blow me away.
That’s why I love so many shows. Back in the day we were so limited with the options. Network tv and maybe HBO. Now with Amazon, Hulu, Netflix, YouTube, all the different networks doing original programming...it gives the opportunity for so much more amazing stories to be told. So many options now. Breaking Bad? The Wire? Arrested Development? We live in a time where so many creative people now have a ton more options to tell a story. I’m happy to soak it all in.
