Your mission, should you choose to accept it.

Is to check out this week’s new entertainment releases. Leading the way is the ridiculously titled Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, a big, silly action movie about AI.

Elsewhere, season 2 of both Foundation and The Afterparty premiered on Apple TV Plus, Oxenfree has a great new spooky sequel, Ridiculous Fishing has returned for Apple Arcade subscribers, and the sci-fi anthology Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire is streaming on Disney Plus.
