Fall
Completely stupid plot ( Early spoiler. Apparently the best way to get over your husbands death from a climbing fall that you witnessed is to confront your fears and climb a narrow tower twice as tall as the Eiffel Tower ) and some very dodgy CGI at times, not to mention some utterly bullshit stunts that Elite Crossfitters would struggle with let alone normal looking women…..but……it still works, I enjoyed it.
Two definite hotties showing ample cleavage was nice and I genuinely got a lurching feeling in my guts when they panned around the tower showing how high they’d got ( I am an absolute pussy with heights though )
Make sure you check your brain at the door and settle in for a decent flick.

Dungeons and Dragons, Honour Among Thieves.
Started fucking awful, and got worse.
But then lind of improved and was kind of fun by the end.
But am suggesting there are better movies to watch in Netflix.
Not a complete disaster but wouldn't spend too many $$$ on it.
2.5 bad actors out of 5 not sure what the fuck it had going for it except derivatives from all sorts of other movies.

I genuinely thought it was a fun movie (no interest in D&D as a youngster) and that's really my bar these days. Spent $9 to see at the cinema which wouldn't be too much $$$ I'd think?

Another Matt Damon/Ben Affleck collaboration………Jesus Christ, what has the world done to deserve that ?
Is your movie snobbery as bad as your music snobbery?
Good Will Hunting is a classic movie.
But that was more than a quarter of a century ago.
Holy fůck we're so old.
Speaking of old, watched Grown Ups 2 with the youngest. Yes it's shit but bloody funny. Just have to enjoy it for what it is.

It's a thinly veiled biopic of Bob Ross
You like him, you'll love the film

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say I expect the tit watch level is pretty low on this one....

Wasn't a fan of the early MI movies as I thought the link to the original TV series was extremely tenuous and the plots silly. Have to give credit to Cruise though that he worked away at making them a vehicle for his stunt work.
While Bond was getting all emo, and F&F sillier, Cruise has taken the aspects of the old Bond movies that we loved and stretched them into a great ride. -
the biggest critique i can give the MI films is lots of them blend into one in my memory, theyre quite "samey", there are six but i could probably explain 3 plots....and thats after watching them back to back last year
BUT...Cruise does know how to make a fun film to watch, dont know if i'll see it in the cinema but i'll definitely watch them
edit: actually, tried to remember some of the plots...and then realised i had mistaken a bond film for one of them...so i can recall maybe 2.5 including the first which is kind of stand alone
also, i could have sworn Ving Rhames had died, must have fallen for one of those hoaxes

Ironically the early movies were closer to the original TV series than the current ones.
As I point out every time a new MI comes out I wish they'd do one where they do a straightforward mission and aren't doing the ever present conspiracy/operating outside the law etc.
I still enjoy them for what they are though.

@Nepia The most mission impossible movie I've seen is the first Oceans 11.
That's how I remember the old TV show as well. All about a team with various skills and how they use them to an end result. You often didn't get to fully understand how the pieces fitted until the end. So very much like Oceans.
