Mission: Impossible – Fallout, a solid entry into the series

Drew and Chella review Mission: Impossible – Fallout, the latest in the series that looks at new and exciting ways to almost kill Tom Cruise.

We’ve been to see M:I6, the spy movie. This is not to be mistaken for MI6, which is a spy agency. But, confusingly, MI6 is mentioned several times in M:I6, continuing the MI6-related plotline from M:I5, which is also a spy movie, and not to be confused with the counter-intelligence agency MI5, which is not mentioned in either M:I5 or M:I6. It should be noted that the main spy agency in M:I6 is actually called the IMF, but please don’t mix that up with the real life IMF, which is the International Monetary Fund.

This week, Argue The Toss reviews Mission: Impossible – Fallout, which is one of the rare movie titles that employs both a colon and a dash, and the sixth entry into the increasingly inaccurately named Mission: Impossible series. Is it any good? Is it anything to do with the video game series Fallout?* Can and should one disappoint Tom Cruise?**

*no, obviously

**also, no

Chella Ramanan

Chella hails from the UK and joined Gameindustry.com around the year 2000. It was so many moons ago, she can't quite remember. Back then, the only women you saw in the games industry were in bikinis and vertiginous heels at trade shows - oh how times have changed, kind of. Chella started as a humble reviewer, but soon became our European Correspondent and keeps us on top of industry happenings across the Pond. She tends to like the weird Japanese games we've never heard of, so that's good for making us look all-encompassing and stuff. Chella does like games, so don't be fooled by the copious amount of columns devoted to bemoaning the lack of variety in the industry. When she's not surfing (the sea, not the internet) or camping up mountains, Chella likes a good action RPG (especially if it's sci-fi), anything with a good narrative and like we said, the weirder the better. She's also a regular in the GiN Lounge, but that's just because we like her accent.
