Deadline: Like a flame to dynamite, the good word-of-mouth is about to explode for Paramount/Skydance’s Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, thanks to those stellar reviews. Industry estimates are pegging the weekend opening in the high-$40Ms to $50M. Friday alone, with $4M in previews, is looking at $18M. That’s a decent stateside opening for the Christopher McQuarrie-directed film, which cost $150M, particularly since the Tom Cruise franchise title is expected to deliver 65%-70% of its global cume from overseas.
MAI Review (2024): Phuong Anh Dao and Tran Thanh sparkle the brighest in this overdramatic movie.
One of 2023's biggest and dumbest creature features is making waves right now on streaming around the world.
"If you are already a fan of this franchise, this is a very good option this weekend at the cinema. It's well made, the actors are great and the story/world setting is very interesting." - Bryan (Resident Entertainment)
