Time to put this franchise in the fridge for a while. This oldskool action film is pretty terrible. It's not just a relic from the past, it's a little too happy to refer to earlier parts in the series. The film is littered with pointless flashbacks, which didn't help the runtime. Sadly, the new material is no improvement.
The AI is hilariously dumb, Cruise looks ridiculous, and the film is way too serious for the amount of nonsense present. It feels like watching a Fast & Furious film for boomers. There are two decent action scenes, which isn't enough for 160 minutes of action cinema. I'm glad we're done with this for a while, if we can trust Hollywood that is.
