Mission: Impossible (1996)

Cast: Tom Cruise (Ethan Hunt), Jon Voight (Jim Phelps), Emmanuelle Beart (Claire Phelps)
For complete cast info, see IMDb's Mission: Impossible page.

Mission: Impossible was very disappointing. I didn't expect it to be so predictable. Seeing Tom Cruise run around and do crazy things is entertaining, but a movie that wasn't so easy to figure out would have been a lot better.

The plot sounded pretty good - totally clean-cut American agent gets framed and is suspected of being disloyal, so he has to find out who the real spy is to save his reputation, etc. If it had been carried out well, this could have been a really interesting movie. I think what bothered me most about this movie is that it had so much potential and they wasted it by making the plot easy to figure out and the agent who was really a spy pretty clear.

I hope that they treat the audience like we're intelligent if they do others. It would be a lot more interesting!

Grade: C
