First ‘Impossible Goal‘ was one of the biggest hits of the late ’90s, but one thing that critics and fans alike complained about was its overly convoluted and confusing storyline. So for the sequel, Cruise and the producers decided to keep things simple, with a story everyone could follow, with an emphasis on stylish action sequences. that’s what the sugar master was called john woo, ,Mi-2‘ The original release date of 26 May 2000 was retained the same.

The third would become an underrated chapter as, despite having several defenders, the feature did not reach expectations financially and nearly ended the partnership between Cruise and Paramount.

When Ethan Hun’s third film came out, it was number one at the box office’trailer holiday‘, comedy with the late robin williams, But there was not much danger from this feature.
as always, ‘MI-3‘Two weeks at the top, not even a blockbuster debut’Poseidon‘ was strong enough to snatch the lead from him.

The lower-expected result of ‘MI-3‘ He has done Tom Cruise And the filmmakers changed their strategy a bit, as there was no question of leaving the franchise. Thus, the fourth feature would receive the subtitle for the first time: ‘Ghost Protocol, instead of a number. Furthermore, May will no longer be the home of the franchise, at least momentarily, with its only issue being released at the end of the year, in December, on the 23rd. Well, here we have another new addition to the franchise that deserves an asterisk. It was revealed that Blockbuster was released in a restricted manner on December 16, 2011, a week earlier to warm up the engine, prior to its premiere on the larger circuit on the 23rd.
In this restricted warm-up, ‘Mi-4‘ finished in third place, as it faced two other big premieres on the same day – these being big circuit launches. was the championsherlock holmes – a game of shadows‘, Together Robert Downey Jr.And in second place, baby’alvin and the chipmunks 3, But it took just the next week for ‘MI-4’ to get off to a proper start and gain momentum, where it would remain unchanged for two weeks – even with the debut of ‘legends like’men who didn’t love women‘, In david fincher,adventures of tintin,war Horse‘ it is ‘we bought a Zoo, It will be only in January 2012 that the terror’daughter of evil‘ will take away their leadership.

Of course it needed to be continued and it came after four years’MI-5, there will be a gap entry Christopher McQuarrie, who would from here on become the official director of the franchise and take charge of all other copies. Here, the series kicked off its premiere in December, but it also hasn’t returned to its traditional May home. The fun will now turn serious with the first ever start in July, where the competition is very real.
Released on 31 July 2015, ‘MI-5‘ The superpower named Marvel came face to face. It’s okay that it was in a “minor” studio film (pardon the word). ,ant Man‘ was presented Paul Rudd in the MCU, and on July 17 topped the box office for two consecutive weeks.

And this is the month she welcomed him, where the exploits of Ethan Hunt (and Tom Cruise) continues to this day, with the seventh film released last week. Here we saw the premiere ofMI-6‘, on July 27, 2018. Five years ago in this same month of July, we saw the actual musical chairs, without even a blockbuster being able to stay at the top for more than a week.
