On the 452nd episode of Piecing It Together, William-Patrick Coleman joins me to talk about Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning. The 8th and possibly final entry in the long running Tom Cruise action series gave us an opportunity to look back at the whole series and talk about what might have inspired this conclusion. Puzzle pieces include Furious 7, Meg 2: The Trench and Avengers: Endgame.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning and the movies we discuss!

Written by Christopher McQuarrie and Erik Jendersen

Directed by Christopher McQuarrie

Starring Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg
