Your mission, should you choose to accept...

Mission: Impossible (1996)

Based on the TV series of the same name this film from director Brian De Palma stars Tom Cruise, Jon Voight and Emmanuelle Beart. When an espionage mission in Prague goes wrong a survivor is accused of being a traitor and has to prove his innocence.

The plot of this film was designed to keep the audience guessing at all times and although it does hit you over the head with clues at times it does a fairly good job of keeping the suspense. There are some great action sequences that De Palma handles really well and helps that Tom Cruise did a lot of his own stunts. As a pure action/suspense film this is a good effort but does lack a bit more depth or character.

4/5
