I reviewed “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning” <\/a>last summer, and while I stand by my criticisms, it still deserves a spot on this list. Fact is, if you’re simply after big-screen, blockbuster thrills, “Mission: Impossible” is the franchise to turn to, and “The Final Reckoning” offers some of the very best stunt sequences I’ve ever seen on the big screen; Ethan Hunt’s (Tom Cruise) awe-inspiring mid-air and underwater escapades alone make it worth watching.<\/p>\n

Yet to dive in? Ethan Hunt’s (Tom Cruise) final outing picks up after the events of “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, and sees him and his IMF team continuing the fight to try and prevent the rogue artificial intelligence known as “The Entity” from destroying human civilization as we know it.<\/p>\n

Let’s round out the list with a recent (and popular!) arrival: Edgar Wright’s new take on “The Running Man<\/a>.” Here, we meet down-on-his-luck average Joe, Ben Richards (Glen Powell). In an effort to earn enough money to get the medicine his daughter needs, Ben signs up for his dystopian world’s most popular TV show, “The Running Man.”<\/p>\n

His task? Go on the run and survive 30 days. Successful “Runners” stand to earn a colossal cash prize if they make it out alive… but as he’s pursued by the show’s “Hunters,” a team of deadly professional assassins who are out to get him, the odds are very much not in his favor. However, our angry antihero proves more capable than everybody expected, making him a fan-favorite with the viewers at home … and also a threat to the system that “The Network” has built.<\/p>\n
