It’s that time of week again folks and this week sees Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One debuting at Number 1 on this week’s Official Film Chart.
The latest instalment in the Mission: Impossible franchise sees secret espionage agency Impossible Missions Force (IMF) – led by protagonist Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) – attempt to track down a worrying weapon that could prove fatal should it fall into the wrong hands. With the future of humanity hanging in the balance, can Ethan battle demons from his past as this global mission gets underway?
