Mission: Impossible – Fallout: Cruise, Cavill & Carnage Add Up To The Best Mission Yet?

217. In this explosive episode of Tailoring Talk Magazine, Jon, Alex & Roberto dive head-first into the high-octane chaos of Mission: Impossible – Fallout — the film that pushed Tom Cruise (and his ankles) to the limit and raised the bar for action cinema.

From THAT halo jump to jaw-dropping helicopter chases, we break down the adrenaline-fueled set pieces, unpack the film’s moral dilemmas, and debate whether Ethan Hunt is a true hero or just addicted to the chaos. We dig into Christopher McQuarrie’s razor-sharp direction, Henry Cavill’s moustache-fueled menace, and why Rebecca Ferguson continues to steal every scene she's in.

Is Fallout the best in the franchise? Or just the most intense? Join us as we rank, rave, and wrestle with the question at the heart of it all: how do you top perfection?
