Running Time: 148 minutes

Now six movies into this action franchise, actor Tom Cruise appears to show no signs of slowing down. Mission: Impossible - Fallout is the latest chapter and one that offers the performer the opportunity to hang from a helicopter in flight as well as trade fisticuffs with varied assassins and killers.

Following the events of the previous film, Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his ludicrously named Impossible Missions Force (Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames) are...

Like the original, the entire story plays out over a computer monitor. Matias (Colin Woodell) is excited to set up a used laptop that...

The Con is On - A co-artist couple who owe money to a British gangster try to rectify the situation by flying to Las Angeles and plotting an elaborate jewel heist. However, the job turns out to be more complicated than anticipated. This US/UK co-production did not wow the press, failing to earn a positive review. They suggested that the great cast was wasted and complained that the screenplay made the...
