What I love about the bathroom fight isn't just that Hunt and Walker are getting beaten up, it's that they're being directly punished for their character flaws. Rarely in the fight do they do anything cooperatively (and when they do it looks more like an accident than anything else), it's two different one-on-one fights happening at the same time, and because the two leads are too stubborn to work together, Lark beats them both. That's great storytelling, the problems don't just happen, they arise because our characters are flawed.
The entire motif of Mission: Impossible, from the beginning, has been that image of the burning fuse, and that's what Fallout does so well, it bakes in that burning fuse tension into every element of the film.
HULK is back! Don't leave us for 5 months again!
Always try not to! But these take a TON of work!
He’s back!
Let's SMASH his like button, subscribe, and ring the bell!
"It Started Southern and It Turned Into Goofy" is my favorite Bill Farmer autobiography.
Never stop loving Shaolin Soccer, dude. That movie is effing brilliant.
Nice tip of the cap to Kung Fu Hustle at 5:59 too
I always feel bad for the poor camera person who has to do these stunts first and backwards
They're the real heroes.
Every time someone shares their sincere, well thought out love for mission impossible, I feel a little less alone in the universe. Stunning work dude, love this!
For the motorcycle chase, I had no idea that those cars were CGI-ed. That is good filmmaking.
Me at the start of the video: "Who gives a fuck about Mission Impossible?"
Me at the end of the video: "I give a fuck about Mission Impossible!"
Now that's good storytelling!
LMFAOOOOOOOO
To accelerate your conversion, watch Patrick H Willems' ode to the series: "Patrick Explains: MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (And Why It's Great)"
@@timdaniel9644 I can always use more Patrick (Charl) in my life!
@@timdaniel9644 Willems is so good. He got me to go back and watch Mask of Zorro and you know what? He was right. That movie kinda rules.
This was a terrific essay. I think it was back when I saw Captain America in the theatre that I first noticed the back-and-forth of setup and payoff on an action scene, and I’ve been poring over the structure of action scenes ever since. When I’m watching a movie and I can’t tell where the first action scene is going it’s always this “uh oh” moment.
"Part 1: The Dive...I'm British now."
That line really tickled me lol
wake up babe new film crit hulk
looks like ill be late today, this is more important than school.
It *IS* school [puts on sunglasses]
@@filmcrithulk1769 exactly
@@filmcrithulk1769 thank you for existing
I never thought I would learn about action in film from The Hulk
Study time over, Film Crit Hulk is back
Blessed to have this as an alternative to film school. KEEP AT IT, HULK!
I literally stopped everything I was doing to come watch this
I know the good guys are going to win, it's up to the movie to show me why they deserve to.
I'm actually early for a change instead of finding out you uploaded something after a month.
The hulk is unleashed guys cheers to a more constant upload schedule
Okay so this or next years it’s John Wick 4 and Matrix 4, so I expect you to team up with Patrick H Willems to talk about the action in these movies.
Soooooooooo looking forward to MI7&8 !!! the hype is real!
Idk about the street shots, but they had dozens of real cars out circling the Arc de Triumph as Tom drove against them. If anyone was a few inches of, he’d be toast. Insane.
Brian DePalma has always been my favorite director, so I was over joyed when the first Mission Impossible was directed by him.
I love how he doesn't treat the audience like idiots, and has subtle details that make the scenes that much more real.
The return of the king
As good of writer as you are, THIS is your ideal medium.
Another great video from Dr. Banner
I mean Hulk
Mission Impossible 2 is my favorite, good old days as a kid and its the early 2000's how could you not like this one, fallout is my favorite newer Mission
You're a real blue flame special aren't you, son?
I understood that reference
Why did it take until today for me to find out Film Crit Hulk has a UA-cam channel?!
I like how you have five elements of action for the five big action scenes in five parts. Makes it all cohesive and easier to comprehend. Also, I had to replay and the laugh at that Goofy transition again, it's good bit.
I never noticed that Solomon Lane was a play on Solomon Kane till just now. Though the similarity pretty much ends with the name, unless there's some subtle subtext I'm missing.
Those cars were CGI . Whaaaat. I love this movie sooo much. Actually Ghost Protocol is my favorite , then 3 after that. But Cavill I like so much in this too
Solomon Kane is a Marvel Comics character, but yes, it's a great name. Absolutely great video, nevertheless!! Thank you. Good Hulk, good!!!
After the 3rd time, I had an overwhelming desire to read the REH collection of Kane stories.
Welcome back!!!
Your videos are really really great ! So nice to get the chance to see a new one !
Hyped for this one hulk!
It's always a good time on this channel.
Great work - you explain clearly and concisely the fundamentals behind Fallout's absolutely terrific execution. But man oh man, did it not wind me right up that you referred to John Lark as THE LARK, something that the movie never does. Riled me up the same way Peter Pan is referred to as THE PAN in Hook. Anyway, good stuff, more please!
What a wonderful presentation! Thanks, dude.
Yay! I was worried you quit.
Never! They just take a long time!
Really love your work, Hulk :)
He’s back?!
Yay, my favorite channel is back!
I really wish he would come back and maybe to a video on either a movie by the Coen Brothers, or Edgar Wright.
I love your work. Absolutely stellar
Yay
How did this come out a year ago and I'm now just finding out about this?
OMG finally you uploaded again yaaay
That blooper was *everything*
Just for one video. Just one! Could you use a monster voice filter so we can get the true film crit hulk voice i hear in my heads for your ALL CAPS ESSAYS!!!.
LOL the world isn't ready bro
@@HxH2011DRA haaaa funny seeing you in these parts. I want it sooo badly. I've read so many film crit hulk essays. It'll probably be terrible and as you young kids say "cringe" but just one just givvvve me one hulk monster voice video essay. It can be short doesn't have to be 49 or 59 minutes long just like 5-8 mins.
@@lobstermagnetreview it's a'me~
Honestly feel like I'm 95 years old given how tired I am these days cuz of work😪
I don’t know, I like how his voice is the opposite of a gruff hulk. It’s such a cool feel
@@cbehopkins his regular voice is fine. But it's like the voice of every left leaning video essayist. I spent years hearing hulk voice via his lengthy essays. If he's doing the video essay game just one time. Just one hulk voice video is all I ask then I can die happy.
I'm subscribed. I can't wait to see action Breakdowns
HULK IS BACK!
Excellent.
This reminds me that “it just feels like a videogame” is such a terrible cliche for describing bad action movies; they very much lack this clarity of goals and paths that good movie action shares with effectively-staged action games.
I enjoyed!! Please keep it up.
Love these and love "Sky-A-Dive" @7:23
Whoever new female characters that will come in the next MI7 and 8 films , i just hope Rebecca's Ilsa character not be killed off
"that I'm sure will one day kill Tom Cruise"… try to keep the glee out of your voice LOL
3:04 YESSSSS!!!!!
New essay!
Yass ur backlk
Thank god you came back haha
Wake up honey, a new Film crit hulk video
Finally!
Great work. I feel like I would only need to watch this video to get most of the effect of watching the actual movie.
I demand a video in full Hulk Vtuber costume
Serious question:
Did you somehow alert UA-cam that you were going to update? Because I just binged your three previous videos yesterday.
How paranoid should I feel?
pure luck!
James Bond would tell Walker to take his hand off his ear.
Sweet ! Awesome show!!
Man these are so good!
When are we gonna get Joe Fixit’s perspective on movies?
YOOOOOOOOOO
I absolutely love this. I have never and likely never will watch a Mission: Impossible film. I just don't care for action movies. But I do care for beautiful cinematography and these film essays are one of the best, most captivating lessons available. I absolutely adore this and only have two issues. One, the obvious, I WANT MORE. But the subtler issue I've been noticing more and more, as I keep watching these, I'm noticing so many flaws in modern media. The poor fight choreography so heavily reliant on jump cuts with no true talent in the Mandalorian ripping me out of the action that only I seemingly notice while all my friends and family just say it looks cool. The pacing issues that only I feel when watching Hamilton (seriously, though, there's so much build up to the Revolutionary War in the first half of the first act and it's done in like two songs and barely relevant). The more I learn, the more I expect out of the media I consume and it simply does not improve. If anything, I feel as though the general quality has been reducing. Clearly there still are stellar movies like Into the Spiderverse or Soul, but there are just so damn many more that seem to get praised just as much if not more and are just clearly worse. The modern focus on, "The Rule of Cool" hurts, but the modern focus on, "Big names before actual skill" is absolutely debilitating. Sure there are Keanu Reeves/Tom Cruise actors that will put their all into everything, but there are so many that don't do their own stunts. Why, then, do directors conform to that norm, sacrificing quality acting simply to ensure the name is tied? Why do directors have half assed action scenes that have no real build up/climax to cover up actors' shortcomings? Why don't they just get stunt actors and keep damn good fight choreography?! If you couldn't tell, jump cuts in fights piss me off more than anything else... I'd really love to hear a more professional opinion on the matter; maybe a history lesson of why modern editing is so reliant on these seemingly lazy solutions. Maybe a bit of hope as I am unable to see if this trend is continuing or if there is already indications that the format is still shifting towards something else.
Just watch the first Mission Impossible movie. It’s basically Hitchcock with spies and undercover agents. Less an action movie than a spy-thriller.
Not an industry person, but I'm pretty sure the reason actors mostly don't do their own stunts is because it's a massive financial risk. When Tom Cruise broke his ankle they had to stop production for something like 6 months, which is insanely expensive, and it could have been even worse.
It's been 84 years...
FILM CRIT HULK, you uploaded new video for 5 months!
@16:05 You were perhaps thinking of MJ Bassett's Solomon Kane (which is a better name, but was already taken).
At 17:48 there was also the smartphone moment (or am I not remembering correctly?). Walker hands her the smartphone wholly intact during that Walker/CIA Director conversation scene. Is it the same smartphone that we see (but with broken screen) earlier in the bathroom scene? I understand why you left it out because I don't know whether this will fit in the structure of the essay though. Maybe under Wrinkle but even then it's a stretch I guess. Too small a detail.
Oh there's so many important little details like this, I tried to get as much as I could without bogging the pace down too much!
@@filmcrithulk1769 Totally understand. But now that I have your ear, do a video on Last Jedi and dramatic function! I would love to see that, especially if you counter it with Abrams' SW movies and how you feel they didn't succeed on executing function.
@@subroy7123 I'm not sure what he'd be able to say in video format about Star Wars that he didn't with his essays.
@@IZEASGT The format offers good ways to look at structural editing. Maybe the same things he wrote about contrasted with Abrams' movies to look at cuts/ a whole sequence?
Lol Solomon Kane actually is a pop culture character (they're a pulp-era creation)
I wonder if Hulk knows that Solomon Kane is an actual character/movie.
You made me want to watch s franchise I didn't care about since my teenage years and John Woo's annoying dove fetish
Poggers great video
Saul Lane: Attorney at Super-villain Law.
Next can you brake down Star Wars Revenge of The Sith?
PaRrGh FigH: tHe RoOpH FuhbaUgH!!
I do have to admit that I like that dumb song.
*I'm British now* 😂
Yay, Mission Impossible
Boo, CIA
Can you guys stop cutting from 30% of the frame being a letterboxed abyss to eye searing white whenever hulk.jpg appears on the screen?
Maybe it could be a yellowish off white? Throw on a paper texture? Make the whole video scope?
My eyes hurt but I want to watch your video.
You didn't mention the arm cocking. I thought you were thorough. Unsubscribed! JK, glad to have this essay!
Kinda sad that Tom Cruise has gotten plastic surgery because it messed up his facial expressions and reactions. He used to have the best facial expressions in action movies and hes still good but hes less flexible and expressive. Wish he could have just been a handsome old man instead of a weird perpetual 35 year old.
My question, why is there not a Mission *OUTpossible* ????????
..... okay, I listening to this and HARD PASS. You should really just dissect Now You See Me part 2 instead, loving this film is okay, but it becomes embarrassingly gushing over something that even most people forget the simple elements when they would like to dumb it down. There's hundreds of heist films that do all of it wrong, and it's better to introduce this into where they did everything wrong.
The first lasagna curiosly marry because spleen fittingly wipe sans a bustling invention. fallacious, scarce bill
This movie was lame imo. Inferior to previous entries.
