Mission: Impossible: The Final Reckoning debuts atop Official Film Chart

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning succeeds in one ‘final mission’ as it goes straight in at Number 1 on this week’s Official Film Chart.

The 2025 action spy movie sees Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) come out of hiding two months after the events of the previous instalment Dead Reckoning, battling a rogue AI known as the Entity, which has seized control of the world’s nuclear arsenal. He and his IMF allies – Benji (Simon Pegg), Grace (Hayley Atwell), and a terminally ill Luther (Ving Rhames) – race to retrieve a cruciform key and the AI’s source code from a sunken Russian submarine. With Luther’s sacrificial ‘poison pill’ plan, they lure the Entity to a fortified digital vault in South Africa – but can Hunt successfully stop a global annihilation?

Jurassic World Rebirth is a brand-new entry at Number 2. Set five years after Jurassic World Dominion, Earth’s climate has become largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Only an isolated equatorial zone sustains them, where the three most colossal land, sea, and air dinosaurs hold genetic material that could unlock a miraculous heart-disease cure. Covert operative Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), with palaeontologist Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey) and team leader Duncan Kincaid (Mahershala Ali), is dispatched to retrieve samples. They cross paths with a shipwrecked civilian family and together become stranded on a forbidden island rife with hidden horrors. Alliances form, dangers escalate, and the fate of dinosaur and humankind hangs in the balance.

Our final new entry of the week comes courtesy of The Ballad Of Wallis Island (5). The James Griffiths-directed comedy sees eccentric lottery winner Charles (Tim Key) yearn to reunite his favourite folk music duo, McGwyer Mortimer. When former partners Herb (Tom Basden) and Nell (Carey Mulligan) both arrive for a private concert, without realising the other’s been invited and that the sole audience member is Charles, old tensions resurface.
