Tom Cruise starrer ‘Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One’ has hit the screens today and it has opened to positive reviews. However, a few viewers have pointed out similarities between this action entertainer and Shah Rukh Khan’s blockbuster hit ‘Pathaan’.
Tom and Hayley Atwell running on a moving train in the climax action sequence, reminded fans of Salman Khan’s cameo alongside Shah Rukh Khan in ‘Pathaan’. Salman-SRK’s reunion had caused havoc and sent fans into a tizzy. Beyond the train sequence reference, the treatment, action and cinematography is quite different in both the movies.
Directed by Christopher McQuarrie and featuring a star cast Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Rebecca Ferguson, Vanessa Kirby, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames and Pom Klementieff.
