The trailer of ‘Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning’ opens with a voice-over. “Our lives are not defined by any one action. Our lives are the sum of our choices. Everything you were, everything you’ve done, has come to this.” Soon, the clip cuts to Cruise reuniting with his mates to repeat ‘the pattern.’ He is sought once again to save the world as the stakes escalate. As the trailer draws to a close, Tom Cruise says, directly looking into the camera, “I need you to trust me one last time.”
Soon, the fans flooded the comment section as they walked down the memory lane. While one penned, “When I was 20 years old, I watched Tom Cruise running in movies. Now that I’m almost 40 years old, Tom Cruise is still running in movies like there’s no tomorrow for him.” Another wrote, “Director: let’s use CGI. Tom: I am CGI (Cruise going insane).” Meanwhile, one user wrote, “Tom Cruise has put everything into these movies. One last ride. Thank You Tom Cruise.”
