The new film of the saga “Missão Impossible” – “Missão Impossible – Reckoning Part 1” has a good presence of AI (artificial intelligence).
However, there are apparently doubts about its good use in the new feature film, again starring Tom Cruise.
For journalist Cesar Soto, from g1, AI is the “big bad” of the plot, which goes further. He says the script appears to have been written by ChatGPT. The plot revolves around a semi-omniscient digital entity, the antagonist of the seventh film.
Peter Debrudge, da Varietyhe thinks that while in “2001: A Space Odyssey” it made people worry about this technology (not that it doesn’t happen today), while according to the journalist the presence of AI in “Reckoning Part 1” seems “incredibly timely”.
Plot of “Mission: Impossible 7”.
In the first part of “Account Reckoning”, Ethan Hunt (Cruise) must find a key that can control or destroy an artificial intelligence that has gone rogue. For this, he will have to face the technology itself and the governments, which aim to gain control of the AI.
Once again, he must save his ex-girlfriend (Rebeca Ferguson), meets an old enemy (Esai Morales) and a new ally (Hayley Atwell).
Right now, The Entity appears to be playing chess, not Risk, as “Account Reckoning Part 1” has yet to show what the renegade AI is capable of. Told that one of these women must die, Hunt does his best to save them both. As usual, he has face masks in his arsenal, while The Entity has an ingenious trick for pretending to be multiple people.

Soto rates the feature film as having a “silly” plot and that it “gets worse” as the film progresses. The digital villain is A Entidade, but, according to the journalist of g1recalls Skynet, the digital entity of “The Terminator”, and called the scene where the AI is presented as a “parody”, for being “poorly written”.
Debrudge agrees with this view, stating that the stunts “are essentially reenactments of familiar stunts”. However, he believes that forcing action scenes into a film that makes heavy use of artificial intelligence, instead of putting several programmers behind their computers, was a good decision, saying screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie has ” a vivid imagination”.
the cruise is fine
Critics, on the other hand, liked Cruise’s interpretations, which continues to do without stuntmen (even at 61) – except in the peak scenes and in some in particular. However, Soto thinks part 2 could be better and surprise fans of the series. For Debrudge, doing without the stuntmen is good for the feature, as “much of what we see is captured on camera, and that makes all the difference.”
