Implausible Reckonation

This is it, the final of the Running Man who Runned and did Stunts!


The Entity is nearly everywhere, and once it gets everywhere, then everywhere will become nowhere! ... 'cos it will destroy everything. Fortunately, the US can exactly determine a ticking clock to follow, with enough time for Ethan Hunt to go through some action sequences and long scenes of just talking and not doing much.

Seriously, for an action movie, there is large chunks of just nothing happening. And even some action scenes where there are large chunks of nothing happening... while being an action sequence!

This is definitely a "culmination" movie where they link several events from movies past, including a lot of links to the first movie.

The cast is pretty much the same as in Part One, and... yeah, several of them definitely are looking older now. No wonder Tom Cruise has bowed out of more movies, I can believe a few others putting their roles down... and, on the other hand, this isn't concluding anything, and the series can continue on and on and on...

This movie passed the time, but it didn't need to be the length that it is...
