Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning: Why This Impossible Movie Works

from The Film Talk Hosted by Jett Loe and Gareth Higgins

Surprise: Jett and Gareth love it. The Final Reckoning somehow evokes Lawrence of Arabia, The Abyss, and Sidney Lumet's Fail Safe while remaining very much a Mission: Impossible movie. The conversation considers spectacle, sacrifice, the series as a whole, and why some gigantic movies still feel unexpectedly personal.
