Tom Cruise is back—leaping off cliffs, battling rogue AI, and somehow making 63 look like 33. But does Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning deliver blockbuster thrills, or is the franchise starting to believe its own legend a little too much?

In this episode of Furman on Film, Nick breaks down the eighth entry in the M:I series with his signature blend of wit, skepticism, and admiration. From the absurd (but impressive) biplane stunt work to the film’s tonal shifts and overstuffed runtime, it’s all on the table. We’re talking themes (sort of), returning characters, Cruise mythology, and what happens when a popcorn movie takes itself just a little too seriously.

Is it fun? Yes. Is it long? Also yes. Is it worth seeing? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Plus: Nick’s final score, and how this installment stacks up in the franchise.
