Well if the mission was possible, why do they keep making sequels? It seems like the problem is never solved or more keeps arising. The mission is never over, Snake.
It's the name of the task force, the Impossible Mission Force or IMF. They handle the missions that other less covert teams like the SEALS etc can't manage. Thus, when they get a mission it's a Mission: Impossible (for everyone else)
>when they get a mission it's a Mission: Impossible (for everyone else)
But why isn't it called mission nearly impossible task force, or mission impossible task force for some? Or very difficult mission task force, there's a lot of different things to call your task force that would have been more accurate.
Those names were considered, but then the writers and producers decided you were an immense homosexual and just went with "Mission: Impossible" instead.
To this day it still feels like a practical joke by Woo making fun of condescending Hollywood buttholes giving him carte blanche without actually "getting" him. Pretty fun, though if you are into actually good flicks 1 and 4 are the way to go.
Some anon once mentioned there were 45-60 minutes cut from Woo's version to make the theatrical, which is already quite long by itself. I wonder what woo-kino we missed.
Exactly, they both have their own unique styles that encapsulate the period they came out in. You could release MI:3 now and it'll fit right in the generic action stunt slop that we have nowadays. It is only noteworthy because it was the originator of the formula and the cast it had. MI:3 was literally carried by the scenes Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Laurence Fishburne, and Billy Crudup had. That was the series last hoorah and after that, the only other notable antagonist was Henry Cavill's character because he had an interesting backstory but got absolutely wasted by Cruise's ego. Nowadays the series is basically a vehicle for Cruise to do cool stunts. You're basically better off just watching the clips on Youtube and be done with it.
Bro why are you so obsessed with the worst Mission: Impossible movie? The last hour of the movie is Ethan doing kung-fu kicks and totally unnecessary motorcycle stunts. It's a low rent martial arts movie that's nothing like the rest of the franchise
>The last hour of the movie is Ethan doing kung-fu kicks and totally unnecessary motorcycle stunts. >implying that's a bad thing
You're a homosexual. Also, no MI is bad but the worst is 3
>the worst is 3
Ah yes, the character-driven M:I known for having the best performances. Of course you hated it, not a single roundhouse kick is launched in the entire film
>muh mystery box >muh fricking marriage that is a blight on the series for the next 3 movies
The only part that truly stands out about 3 is PSH and he ends up being some henchman jobber. JJ is a hack
>ethan gets mission briefing via cool sunglasses >throws them at the camera >they self-destruct in midair >title sequence with limp bizkit starts playing

De Palma´s film, that is the original Mission Impossible, is the only one worth being called a film. Cinematography and atmosphere are top notch, characters are memorable, drama is solid and actually conveys that cold war espionage feel.
2 and 3 are bland forgettable action movies. 4 is the IP reinventing itself for brain dead capeshit audience. It´s kind of fun to see how they have to improvise around all the gadgets malfunctioning and the action is decent. I would also agree that the team members chemistry is fine but honestly it´s pretty shallow and it doesn´t really take itself seriously.
5 and 6 are both the IP mixing that with new James Bond. I´m not really convinced that works for them. So yeah, De Palma´s film is in a different tier to the rest
OFFICIAL POWER RANKINGS
1=4>6=5>7>3>>>>2
1 is almost perfect. 4 brought the franchise back from the grave. 6 is elevated by Henry Cavill and has better breathtaking moments than 5. 7 is still good, just obviously affected by Covid protocols. 3 is hard-carried by PSH. 2 is straight trash, John Woo hackery
What I remember most about this movie is that it has the worst delivered line in all of cinema history by one of my favorite actors.
Me and my brothers must have ruined the tape rewinding it over and over laughing at how bad it was. >you who don't have a conscious
But they must have fixed it in a later cut of the movie because all the clips on YouTube are not the way he delivers the line on my vhs copy.
But if the missions were impossible then howcome there were sequels? Wouldn't that make the missions possible or only nearly impossible?

The real mission impossible was letting go

they should have just called it the "Getting out of Bed and Taking a Shower" Force so i could relate to it more.
Those names were considered, but then the writers and producers decided you were an immense homosexual and just went with "Mission: Impossible" instead.
The real mission impossible was the friends you make along the way. you should know, Cinemaphile
Nah but at least it's better than 3
Memorable means godfrickingawful with a fake face on top

>I know why you wanna hate me

>Cause hate is all the world has even seen lately
What the frick are you talking about? It's bollywood tier shit.

1 and 2 were directed by auteurs.
Staring with 3 they became generic action movies that were indistinguishable from everything else out there.

Best Mission Impossible is Ghost Protocol because of she.
OH MY GOD, IS THAT A 5/10 WHITE WOMAN? I'M GONNA COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Shes not in Ghost Protocol u fricking moron
Love Tom don't get me wrong but the fact that he's a Manlet is taking me out of his role sometimes
I like the 1st one because all the original series boomers had a meltdown when they got a proposal to be villains/get killed in the first scene of it.
Yeah it's kino. Btw it has the same plot as Hitchock's Notorious
What I remember most about this movie is that it has the worst delivered line in all of cinema history by one of my favorite actors.

Nah MI: Plop Centrifuge was the best one
John Woo is a hack. i couldn’t even get past the private security scene.
