On Twitter, early reactions to the ‘impeccably made’ film were almost unanimously positive.
Erik Davis, of Fandango and Rotten Tomatoes, bragged he had the ‘absolute best time’ watching Cruise’s new film.
He added it was ‘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.’

Dead Reckoning Part One is a long time coming as it had production halted a number of times due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
It was shot back-to-back with its direct sequel, Dead Reckoning Part Two.
The two films were initially reported to be the final chapters, as reported by several publications, including Screen Rant.
Along with the hype surrounding a new addition to the Mission Impossible franchise, the fans and media were also intrigued by rumors that co-stars Tom and Hayley had secretly dated during filming.
But Hayley efficiently silenced the rumblings as she spoke for the first time about her ‘close’ bond with Tom in an interview in the May-June issue of Country & Town House.
‘I felt like if I ever was worried about it, I could talk to him [Tom],’ the newly-engaged star said of the dating rumours.
‘And I know that he would’ve said, “People say whatever they want to say, but you know who you are, I know who I am and I want you to feel safe in this environment.”‘
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, which along with Cruise and Atwell also stars Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Vanessa Kirby and Henry Czerny, is slated to hits theaters in the U.S. on July 12.
The sequel, Dead Reckoning Part Two, is scheduled to make its premiere in theaters on June 28, 2024.
