Watch Tom Cruise And Russell Crowe In First Trailer For THE MUMMY

The Mummy

Tom Cruise headlines a spectacular, all-new cinematic version of the legend that has fascinated cultures all over the world since the dawn of civilization: The Mummy.

Welcome to a New World of Gods and Monsters. The new trailer for Universal Pictures’ THE MUMMY has just debuted online.

Thought safely entombed in a tomb deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient princess (Sofia Boutella of Kingsman: The Secret Service and Star Trek Beyond) whose destiny was unjustly taken from her is awakened in our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.

From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters.

Cruise is joined by a cast including Annabelle Wallis (upcoming King Arthur, television’s Peaky Blinders), Jake Johnson (Jurassic World), Courtney B. Vance (TV’s American Crime Story: The People V. O.J. Simpson) and Oscar® winner Russell Crowe (Gladiator).

The creative team on this action-adventure event is led by director/producer Alex Kurtzman and producer Chris Morgan, who have been instrumental in growing some of the most successful franchises of the past several years—with Kurtzman writing or producing entries in the Transformers, Star Trek and Mission: Impossible series, and Morgan being the narrative engineer of the Fast & Furious saga as it has experienced explosive growth from its third chapter on. Sean Daniel, who produced the most recent Mummy trilogy, produces alongside Kurtzman and Morgan.

The film is written by Jon Spaihts and Christopher McQuarrie.

THE MUMMY opens in theaters June 9, 2017.

Tom Cruise is back as Ethan Hunt, facing his most blisteringly impossible mission yet, in director Christopher McQuarrie’s MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION.

The deep-cover espionage agency known as the IMF has been under fire, but now it faces total disbandment, even as the most harrowing threat yet known to the free world lies in the shadows. That threat is The Syndicate, an impenetrable, exquisitely-trained group of renegade spies who have left behind their countries for an agenda all their own – an agenda intent on destabilizing the very foundations of civilization. The Syndicate has long been rumored to be just a wild-eyed myth among spies. But Ethan Hunt has just uncovered the unwelcome reality that this rogue nation is not only real but a ticking time bomb about to detonate worldwide if he doesn’t act. The CIA doesn’t buy it. His own team is under threat. Yet, Ethan will never turn his back on the highest stakes.

Every quality that has made Hunt indispensable is tested at once as he faces the ultimate nemesis: his ability to move deliberately in heart-stopping circumstances, his finesse travelling glamorous global locales, his desire to see evil punished and good prevail. From Vienna to Casablanca, from the skin of an in-flight military aircraft to the underwater depths, Hunt will go to every extreme to counter the greatest danger he’s faced in a career built on it. But most of all, he will attempt to do the one thing he has found truly matters: maintain his loyalty to his friends and the idea that might be able to outsmart the impossible.

Reteaming with Cruise as Hunt’s fellow agents are Jeremy Renner as William Brandt; Simon Pegg as whiz-kid Benji; and Ving Rhames as Luther Stickell. Joining the action anew are Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson (“Hercules”) as the mysterious Ilsa Faust; Sean Harris (“Prometheus”) as Solomon Lane and three-time Golden Globe winner Alec Baldwin as CIA Director Alan Hunley.

The film is rated PG 13

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION – The Review

mission-impossible-rogue-nation-review-roundup

Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible franchise is like a series of demo reels for top directors (Brian DePalma, John Woo, J.J. Abrams, Brad Bird) to take turns showing off all the assorted ways they can film their star (and producer) running, fighting, shooting, driving, looking cool, and performing eye-popping physical feats. There’s not much continuity connecting the MI films, and it seems no big film series has ever had a leading character quite as scantily-developed as Cruise’s Ethan Hunt. MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION is the fifth film in this series and I still don’t know much about him. But it doesn’t matter. Director Christopher McQuarrie takes the reigns for the newest installment and while it may not add up to much more than the sum of its parts, those parts include an exotic trip around the world, an engaging script, funny dialogue and spectacular stunts for one exhilarating summer ride.

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION opens with the CIA brass Hunsley (Alec Baldwin) shutting down the Impossible Mission Force just as they were closing in on a diabolical terror cell known as The Syndicate led by Solomon Lane (Sean Harris). Ethan (Cruise) goes underground for a few months before calling out teammate Benji (Simon Pegg) to help try and foil a political assassination in Vienna. With the CIA believing that Ethan was behind the attempt, Brandt (Jeremy Renner) enlists the questionably loyal Ilsa (Rebecca Ferguson) to help track him down, leading to a showdown with Lane. The plot is secondary for what makes MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION so special is Cruise and McQuarrie’s giddy knack for momentum, spinning Ethan and his crew from one ridiculously dangerous situation to another. Watch Tom’s car flip end over end a dozen times before he crawls out and hops on a motorcycle to continue the chase and applaud the age-defying 53-year old actor. The 007-style opening with Cruise hanging on to the door of an ascending transport plane is a five-star experience and represents everything you want from an action film. The show-stopping assassination sequence at an Opera House contains wonderful Buster Keaton-style choreography involving curtains, catwalks, and a lethal flute, and there’s another complex scene where Ethan must hold his breath for several minutes longer than expected while trying to seize a crucial computer chip from an underwater source.

Cruise is in enthusiastic form as usual, throwing himself into his stunt work with near-suicidal bravado. Pegg, Renner, and Ving Rhames provide levity, Alec Baldwin fits right in, and Rebecca Ferguson is a sexy and worthy leading lady. But Cruise is the straight man foundation of the series and takes every action beat in stride – always moving, running, and thinking – he’s terrific. The mission itself may be a bit underwhelming and the central villain something of a dud (Sean Harris’ most distinguishing feature is his weak chin), but MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION is an adrenaline-rush adventure on a grand scale and is highly recommended.
