Mission: Impossible – Fallout

Mission: Impossible – Fallout is a 2018 American action spy film written, produced and directed by Christopher McQuarrie. It is the sixth installment in the Mission: Impossible film series.
Two years after Lane's capture, the remains of his organization "the Syndicate" are now a terrorist group named "the Apostles". Ethan is assigned to intercept three stolen plutonium cores in Berlin before the Apostles can sell them to fundamentalist Lark. He joins Benji and Luther for the mission, but they fail when Luther is taken hostage and Ethan chooses to save his life, allowing the Apostles to take the plutonium. The team capture nuclear weapons expert Nils and learn that he built three portable nuclear weapons for the Apostles.

Furious at the IMF's failure to secure the plutonium, CIA Director Erica instructs Special Activities Division operative Walker to shadow Ethan as he attempts to retrieve the plutonium. Ethan and Walker infiltrate a party in Paris where Lark is believed to be buying the cores from an arms dealer known as White Widow. They track a man whom they suspect to be Lark and engage in a brutal fight with him. Despite their combined efforts to fight, the man gains the upper hand until he is killed when Ilsa intervenes just as he is about to kill Hunt. Ethan impersonates Lark and warns the White Widow that the Apostles are trying to kill her. Walker passes doctored evidence on to Sloane suggesting that Hunt has always been Lark and the man killed by Ilsa was a decoy.

To secure the plutonium, White Widow tasks Ethan with extracting Lane from an armored convoy moving through Paris. She provides one of the plutonium cores as a payment in kind for the mission. Ethan and Walker attack the convoy and lead the police and the White Widow's men on a chase across Paris while Benji and Luther secure Lane. Ilsa reappears and attempts to kill Lane to prove her loyalty to MI6. The mission to extract Lane is successful and White Widow instructs the team to deliver Lane to London.


At a safe house in London, IMF Secretary Alan confronts Ethan about being Lark. Ethan denies it and incapacitates him to continue the mission. The team trick Walker into admitting he is the real Lark, Walker is working with Lane, and the Apostles as part of a plot to acquire the plutonium and have Ethan branded a nuclear terrorist. The IMF team inform Sloane, who instructs a CIA unit to detain everyone, but the CIA unit has been compromised by the Apostles and Walker orders them to attack instead. After Walker kills Hunley and escapes, Ethan chases him across the city, but is unable to apprehend him. Walker threatens the life of Ethan's estranged wife Julia Meade and departs for a medical camp in Kashmir with Lane.

The team deduces that Lane plans to detonate the two remaining nuclear weapons over the Glacier, contaminating the water supply of Pakistan, India, and China; with a third of its population affected, the world will descend into anarchy from which Lane hopes a new world order will emerge. Ethan finds Walker has arranged for Julia to be assigned to the medical camp, increasing the pressure on him. Lane activates the weapons and gives the detonator to Walker. Ethan follows him in a helicopter, leaving Benji, Luther, and Ilsa to find the weapons. Luther and Julia find the first bomb and work to understand its mechanism, but they are unable to defuse it without the detonator. Ilsa and Benji locate the second weapon and subdue Lane. After a lengthy chase Ethan uses his helicopter to ram Walker's aircraft out of the sky. The two fight on a cliff edge and Walker is killed. Ethan gains the detonator, allowing Luther, Ilsa, and Benji to deactivate the bombs.


In the aftermath, the remaining two cores are safely recovered. Sloane hands Lane over to MI6 through the White Widow, earning Ilsa's exoneration. Ethan recovers from his injuries with Julia's help while the rest of the team celebrate with him.
