Mission: Impossible Ratings & Reviews
- Kevin Ward7 juli 2025I checked out of the Mission: Impossible films after part 3 and haven’t looked back despite the praise for McQuarrie’s more recent entries. But with part 7 on the horizon and my kids showing interest in that, we’re going to probably tackle the entire franchise. I had completely forgotten that Brian De Palma directed this one. In fact, the only thing I remembered about this film was that iconic scene. De Palma’s direction is so good. I love me some dutch angles, though, so I might be a bit biased there. Some of the action went a little over-the-top—namely the helicopter in the tunnel sequence—but hey, what else would you want from a summer blockbuster. The ridiculous heel-turns and Scooby-Doo masks are here, but (from what I remember) not as egregious as what turned me off the franchise in parts 2 and 3. (We’ll see if that thinking holds up when we revisit those. I remember even less about those films than I did this one). Ultimately, this one serves as really great spy thriller and I am looking forward to finally seeing 4, 5, 6 and eventually 7.
- makdelart−5 dThis first instalment of the new MI franchise is already an undisputed classic, drawing, of course, on an even more classic series from the distant past, but refreshed and packed with a host of thrills by the brilliant De Palma. This director created his finest works whilst inspired by Hitchcock’s oeuvre, and this is also evident in this superb thriller. The fact that it may feel a little dated only adds to its charm: after all, the older the wine, the better it gets.
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ5 april 2026The first hour of mission impossible is an absolute joy to watch. It felt like a fusion of James Bond and oceans eleven, with stylised cinematography, clearly reminiscent of classic like The Third Man, and wonderful locations like Prague. The first hour is so effortlessly entertaining that it will breeze by with ease.
- John Chapel5 april 2026This is a movie about a gay man pretending to be a straight man. It is the first of an 8 Part story about Tony Cruz and his ascencion to the higher plane.
- Cubane12 mars 2026A 90s spy thriller that has aged better than any of its contemporaries. While it grew into a gigantic action franchise that spiraled into insanity, the original will always be the most grounded and intense.
- Sarah J20 maj 2025Jon Voight looks like my dad in this movie
- Spaceman Joe28 maj 2025An amazing spy thriller, much different from its also amazing sequels. Lots of twists and turns and reveals
- Ddoughnut22 maj 2025Now, this was an epic thrill ride
- thesubcon318 maj 2025Classic!
- Jakeys30 december 2025This is a classic, much more intimate than the later movies and I think all the better for it too. Very tight spy thriller. I love how it oozes 1990's too with the heavy focus on the technology of the era. That stuff has aged so badly, but it's a nostalgic joy to see.
- Edward Schofield17 juni 2025Glad they moved away from spy genre.
- Nathan Magreta22 juli 2025It's a fun action movie that started an amazing franchise
- Daniel Taylor28 december 2025Rewatching this is such a reminder of how cool this movie still is. Tom Cruise in peak 90’s heartthrob mode, slick hair, intense stare, running like his life depends on it. Iconic. It’s also hilarious in the best way seeing the 90’s tech. That moment where he literally types “Internet Access” like it’s a magic spell never fails to make me smile. A very different time, but it adds to the charm rather than taking away from it.
- Zokkiie18 augusti 2025It is a slick, stylish spy thriller that still holds up today. Tom Cruise’s as Ethan Hunt is full of tension, clever twists, and that iconic vault scene that’s just as gripping now as it was back then. The plot gets a little tangled at times, but the suspense and action more than make up for it. A sharp, entertaining start to the franchise.
