Trying to be Marvel is easy... failing is too

Rating: 2/10 (21 June 2020)

Putting jokes everywhere to cut tension, drama or exposition is a big part of the amazing Marvel formula. It works because, in general, they do a great job with it. Sometimes with bad jokes, but always with great timing.
So here we are with an... "spy movie"? Barely any espionage. Impossible mission? Technically. But there is barely a mission in this movie. It seems more a continuity of improvisations from Ethan Hunt and his team. No tension about the effectivity of a great plan because there is no big plan to begin with. It is more a series of complications to be resolved randomly or sometimes by straight force. The writing just sucks. And because the writing sucks, they try to hide it behind bad jokes that break the tone of this type of movie, but more than anything this franchise, that used humor sparsely before.
An spectacular trash of an spy movie.
