After lengthy delays due to the coronavirus pandemic and an unprecedented $290million outlay, Tom and Hayley looked thrilled to be celebrating the film launch.
The world premiere, which happened in Rome earlier this month, received rave reviews from early critics, who branded it ‘dynamite’ and tipped it to be a summer blockbuster.
The film follows Ethan Hunt and the IMF team, including Grace, as they track down a terrifying new weapon that threatens all of humanity if it falls into the wrong hands.
Following Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One’s world premiere in Rome, critics and fans who got a chance to see the film early shared mostly fawning praise on social media.
The latest Mission: Impossible entry premiered in the iconic Italian city as part of the Rome Film Festival, after a significant chunk of the movie was filmed in the capital.
On Twitter, early reactions to the ‘impeccably made’ film were almost unanimously positive.
Gizmodo and io9 writer Germain Lussier called the new movie ‘fantastic’ and said it had a ‘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,’ he added.
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.
