And the action sequences - in particular the helicopter in the Chunnel - are some of the best Hollywood has to offer. De Palma also does a fine job of creating an atmosphere of suspicion nobody with whom Tom Cruise comes into contact is completely trustworthy. Mission: Impossiblecertainly has a great opening, breaking the rules of the Hollywood thriller by (seemingly) killing off stars ( Jon Voigt, Emilio Estevez, Kristin Scott Thomas) in the introductory sequence. The CIA headquarters break-in, while exhilarating, is particularly dubious. The movie unfortunately foregoes plot coherence and plausibility in favor of sensationally shot break-ins and escapes.

Still, Mission: Impossible has great sets, requisite turncoat agents, high tech espionage, and three thrilling action sequences that will keep action-crazy adolescents on the edge of their seats. The Cold War may be over, but the spy genre is alive and well in Tom Cruise and director Brian De Palma's sometimes confusing and implausible thriller.
