Despite an avalanche worth of cliches, the over-the-top nitroglycerin-fueled action and a dramatic rescue attempt premise allow for a big, fun movie experience set on the gorgeous but dangerous snowy peaks of Pakistan.

America vs. Russia – it’ll never get old. This time the two countries have their astronaut scientists squaring off for control of the International Space Station in this paranoid thriller that moves quickly, boasts strong VFX, and features impressive camerawork, but lacks the emotional connection and memorable moments to make it stand out.

Barely average or below in almost every single way – not even a constant flow of bee puns and the occasional body part removal can save this overly silly and unspectacular action flick.

This adaptation is a pretty solid end-of-the-world mystery thriller with a strong sense of dread throughout that does leave some room for discussion afterward and is a nice way to reflect on society’s current reliance on electronic information flow and the way we typically approach interpersonal relationships, but there is nothing shocking or exceptional enough about this story or its characters to make it stand out as special among its apocalyptic peers.

John Woo returns to American cinema after twenty years with a revenge film that features no dialogue and a surprisingly emotional story. The action is solid, though unspectacular, but the film’s overall balance of melodrama and underdog ass-kicking combined with a fantastic score and sound design makes for a successful reunion between the director and fans.

A captivating take from creator Taylor Sheridan on female strength in military special ops and espionage that treads lightly into melodrama while keeping its focus mostly on the high-stakes mission at hand. It’s well-paced with great use of tactics when action is required, but the depth of character building and ideological dilemmas it presents make it special.

Rounding out three weeks in a row of mission madness, we dig into the newest entry in Tom Cruise’s blockbuster action spy series. Narratively, this time around we’ve got some notes, and overall feel it missed the depth that some of franchise’s most chilling human villains provided. But even with some issues, the spectacle in incredibly entertaining and the pacing absolutely perfect, resulting in such an exciting and fun experience that we can find ourselves able to forgive this for not quite reaching the Ethan Hunt Hall of Fame.

Continuing our immersion in the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE franchise over a few weeks, we have a conversation about the franchise’s sixth entry, one that shines for its overall balance of high quality elements. We talk about the addition of Ilsa Faust as a mysterious friend/foe and subtle love interest, how great of an antagonist Solomon Lane and The Syndicate are, and why Ethan’s relationship with his teammates will always make this series special. Plus more, of course, because there are always crazy stunts and intricate set pieces to ooh and aah over, as well.

We’re going back to the beginning (of the movies at least) to start off three weeks of celebrating this outstanding spy series. Tom Cruise instantly becomes the iconic IMF agent Ethan Hunt, we learn about the power of masks, get to see exploding gum, and kick-off a world in which practically everyone goes rogue at some point. This is a very 90s and very De Palma entry in the franchise, but remains one of our most favorites.

Genuinely surprising movies are not all that easy to come by, but this directorial debut tries something new and the result is a somewhat thrilling, somewhat campy, somewhat thought-provoking merger of horror comedy that is a blast to experience with others. We had a great time discussing our reactions to it and hope you enjoy listening.
