Tom Cruise's highly anticipated film, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, enjoyed a spectacular opening in India upon its release on May 17, 2025. This film is the sequel to Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) and is considered the eighth and final installment of the franchise.
Mission Impossible 8 Collection Day 2: Tom Cruise's much-awaited film, 'Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning (Part Two)', maintained its b hold on the box office in India on its second day of release. After a phenomenal opening day collection of ₹17 crore, the film earned approximately ₹15.73 crore on its second day. This brings the total two-day collection to ₹32.73 crore, a significant milestone for any Hollywood spy-thriller in the Indian market.
Agent Ethan Hunt's Magic Remains
The film once again features Tom Cruise as Agent Ethan Hunt, a character now deeply ingrained in the hearts of the audience. While many franchises falter by their final installments, this concluding chapter of Mission Impossible successfully captivates audiences with its suspense, thrills, stunts, and high-octane action.
Audiences particularly praised the action sequence on top of a moving train and the dangerous stunts performed by Tom Cruise in the climax. The craze for Tom Cruise among Indian audiences is evident from the fact that advance bookings alone filled many showtimes.
Alarm Bells for 'Red 2'
The release of Mission Impossible 8 has directly impacted Ajay Devgn's film, 'Red 2'. Already facing slow momentum, 'Red 2' is now receiving even less audience attention. Reports suggest that 'Red 2' collected only around ₹4.5 crore on its 18th day, a cause for concern. Critics and trade analysts believe that the b hold of Mission Impossible may further reduce 'Red 2's earnings in the coming week.
Although this eighth Mission Impossible film received slightly lower ratings compared to its predecessors, its grip on the Indian market appears quite b. Experts believe that while it may not be as intense as Dead Reckoning Part One, it provides a satisfying conclusion, showcasing emotional depth, mission gravity, and the legacy of Ethan Hunt.
The film's cinematography, background score, and Tom Cruise's energy make it a must-watch on the big screen. Significant enthusiasm is observed, particularly among multiplex audiences and in metropolitan cities.
