Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning (2023) ft. Ryan Pappolla
Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHWe meet this neat two-piece key being put together to make one key. We're on a Russian submarine and they have this AI system called The Entity that'll help them evade their enemy. But while testing one day, the AI becomes sentient and makes them think someone is attacking them. Turns out, no one is and they end up getting struck by their own torpedo. The key is now split up and floated up to the surface. We then catch up with Ethan Hunt who is given his new mission: get both pieces of the key, one of which has already been obtained by Ilsa. So he has to get the one half from Ilsa, and then track down the other one. So he heads to a desert and tracks her down. He gets the key and tells her that she's dead. Ethan then sneaks into a meeting to hear Kittridge, who is randomly back, explain that the Entity can manipulate cyberspace to control global defense intelligence and financial networks. He tells them that Ethan Hunt was on the case but we don't know where he is. Well, we do. He's in the room in a mask. He tells Kittridge that he refuses to give the half key to Kittridge but tells him he's going to find the other half and destory the Entity. Ethan meets up with Benji and Luther and the travel to Abu Dhabi to intercept the buyer of the other half of the key. Ethan's plan was to sell their half of the key to the buyer, and then follow the buyer to figure out what it unlocks. Ethan locates the buyer but the key is stolen by a professional thief named Grace. Ethan confronts Grace and offers to put the key back in the buyer's pocket in exchange for a generous payment of $4 million. But by the time they get back to the buyer, he's dead and then we find out that the key they have is actually a counterfeit. While Ethan was distracted but Luther and Benji disarming a weapon, Grace steals the real key from Ethan. Ethan suspects foul play after seeing Gabriel, a powerful terrorist who appears to be working with the Entity. He and Ethan had an encounter with each other prior to Ethan becoming an IMF agent. So, he aborts the mission and the team scatters. Grace escapes to Rome but is apprehended. Ethan helps her escape but now they're both being chased - there's an Entity operative named Paris and then there's a US agent Jasper Briggs. Paris and Briggs get into a shootout which gives Ethan and Grace enough time to escape. Ethan meets back up with Luther and Benji and Ilsa joins them. Ethan and Ilsa follow Grace to Venice where they go to a party held by the the White Widow. Luther had figured out by analyzing the video feed from the airport that Gabriel is working for the Entity. Ilsa says that Gabriel is the Entity's messenger and that the key leads to the Entity's source code. So the party is poppin. White Widow, Gabriel, Paris, Ethan, Grace, Ilsa... they gather at the party. Ethan realizes that the party was organized by the Entity as well. Ethan knows that White Widow is trying to get the key but doesn't want to keep the key for herself since she does not know what it unlocks. She cannot decide whether to give the key to her friend Ethan, or to Gabriel. Tapped into the Entity, Gabriel proclaims he will possess the completed key the next day and that either Ilsa or Grace will die. While Ethan is attempting to convince the White Widow to not give the key to Gabriel, Gabriel escapes. The Entity leads Grace and Isla to Gabriel. Gabriel knocks out Grace and kills Ilsa, devastating Ethan. Grace agrees to impersonate the White Widow and take the key during the sale on the train the next day. Ethan needs to figure out how he's going to get on that train to keep Grace safe. The next day, on the train, Gabriel kills the engine crew and destroys the throttle and brake. Grace finds the White Widow, knocks her out, and then goes to meet with Kittridge who is the buyer. Paris & Gabriel meets Director of National Intelligence Denlinger, who divulges all the information he has about the entity and how it went rogue. He explains that inside the submarine is a chamber that only the the completed key can unlock with the original Entity source code which would allow the holder to destroy or control The Entity. Now that he has all the information, Gabriel kills him. Kittridge agrees to the White Widow Grace's deal of $100 million and protection. But she ends up pickpocketing the key completed key from Kittridge. So how is Ethan going to get on the train and save the day? Well, Benji navigates him to the top of this mountain where he ride his motocycle off of it and parachutes onto the train. Grace takes off the mask and tries to escape but it's too late. She's about to be shot but Ethan comes crashing through the side of the train and saves her. But the key goes on the floor and is picked up by Gabriel. He goes to the top of the train and Ethan follows him. They begin to fight but Gabriel escapes and sets off an explosion to the bridge that's coming up. But Ethan manages to steal the key back from him without him noticing. Grace and Ethan detach the locomotive from the rest of the train which saves the passengers. But they aren't safe yet. They have to fight their way to the back of the train as more and more of the train continues to fall off the cliff. Right as they're about to fall, Paris shows up and pulls them to safety. She tells Ethan where to take the key and then passes out from a stab wound. Ethan has to leave and can't take Grace with him. Grace agrees to work with Kittridge and Ethan lands and is joined by Benji now that their next mission is to successfully destroy the Entity.
