MI2 I'll gladly forget. What a horribly disappointing film with few if any redeeming qualities.
The only way that film works is watching it on an MST3000 level and laughing at all the goofiness from the slo-mo to the Scooby Doo facemask frequency that would make a great drinking game. You could also do a drinking game with how many times Ambrose sneers, says "Hunt" in a contemptible way or says he's better than Hunt.
I am a huge fan of MI:3; everything in it works for me. It’s the film that made Ethan a three dimensional character rather than a cookie cutter super spy. The relationship between him and his wife is very sincere and creates a real sense of danger, with real consequences, when her life is hanging in the balance.
MI:3 gave the series an emotional backbone that culminated in the finale of Fallout. It was handled brilliantly; they wisely did not have Ethan become mired in a protracted domestic storyline but kept it as something, while distant, still a vital part of of his story.
At this point, I believe they will completely move on.

Lets hope so?!!! So thankful NTTD wrapped before all this lockdown business.
I'm bummed about it. It was one of the few films I will venture into the cinema for, or at least would have.
No Tropic Thunder in this line-up? A shame.
Yeah, true....Difference is, he hardly looks the age and he's still bent on doing his own stunts :)

Cruise wants to return to Norway.

Yep. This bit:
@Thunderfinger Only stumbled on the article right now. I knew they had planned on filming in Norway (again), but didn't know they had planned on filming here this year.
Are you sure that is in Norway? Looks like an Indian fjord to me.
Oh, those Indian fjords. So similar to the ones we have here. :))
Trying to resist the temptation to watch Fallout again... :)
Didn't know that!
Yes, it was shot in Norway, although it's not easy to shoot in kashmir. Still, Indian Fjord are a bit like this.
Also beautiful.
Yeah apparently. Notice that Ethan is limping apparently because he was injured in the helicopter crash, but actually I believe it was to help explain Cruise naturally not being able to put his full weight on his not-quite-fixed ankle!
And so then, of course he decides he should dangle off a 1000ft drop! :D He is an impressive guy...
I remember seeing a bit of mobile phone footage of them shooting the last scene next to the river in London where Lane gets handed over to the CIA, and in the version they were shooting (which didn't make the film) Hunt is walking along with Vanessa Kirby's character talking, and when the director yells cut and they all go back to their start positions to do another take, you can see Cruise suddenly starts limping really heavily: almost hopping. So in the scene he was actually acting that he can walk okay!!! How does someone do that?!
Thanks for the info!
He's a crazy guy, Cruise. Luckily, his dedication provides us with entertainment! I need to watch Fallout again, because I didn't think of his injury at all when watching the film.
