Collider’s Perri Nemiroff in a tweet said: “Dead Reckoning Part One is another winner for the franchise. Yet again, the production value is THROUGH THE ROOF with some of the most well-defined and exhilarating set pieces photographed in ways that truly make you feel like you’re in the middle of the action.”

“The emphasis on capturing things in camera makes a HUGE difference, and you can feel it. Also really dug the mission this time around and how the technology they’re after factors into the characters’ individual arcs,” she added.

Nemiroff went on to add, “Tom Cruise is A+ as always and Rebecca Ferguson continues to be a favorite, but franchise newcomer Hayley Atwell wound up being the MAJOR standout for me. She can do it all. Action, comedy, a capable hero in many respects while trying to get her sea legs in others. One of the most captivating performances/arcs, and just a hugely enjoyable character to watch. She’s got a scene with Tom that involves a Fiat 500 that truly had me in tears I was laughing so much. One more set-piece shoutout — there’s a particular scene within the sequence on the train that had my jaw on the floor.”

“I had the absolute best time watching Mission Impossible – an impeccably made action film that does not stop entertaining. Each action sequence is long, crazy & intense. The story is big & sprawling, but I like how it both felt complete & left you dying for what comes next,” he wrote.

Praising the sound quality of the film, Erik Davis added, “I watched #MissionImpossible in a Dolby house, and DAMN! The sound on this thing is incredible – fav parts are the Rome chase & the train sequence. The biggest scene stealer goes to Pom Klementieff, who plays a wicked villain with a cool arc. Pom having a great summer!

#MissionImpossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1 is fantastic.

Dynamite, timely story. Excellent new characters. Huge variety of action and a final set piece that ranks top 2-3 all-time for the franchise.
