Buckle up — T.C. and Ceej are breaking down Dead Reckoning, where Tom Cruise is out here acting like every mission might be his last.
We get into our feelings on the franchise: the real stunts, the explosions, and Tom Cruise sprinting like rent’s due. From our love for the practical effects (because CGI could never) to our struggle with the runtime (this movie had chapters, bruh), we’re unpacking it all — including whether Cruise is officially the last great action star still doing it like it’s the ’90s.
Is the movie good? Yes.
Is it long? Also yes.
But did it go hard? You already know.
