    Mission: Moronic would be more like it. Makes the television series look like Citizen Kane.

    This was a great film. Fun, fast-paced and lots of twists, like the TV show. The sequel lost it big-time, though.

    This was a pretty good movie. I was just exited and anxious when that movie was released and I was not disappointed. Very nice effects. Tom Hanks did a very good job.

    As far as action and thrillers go, Mission: Impossible is slightly above average. Tom Cruise is tolerable, and Jon Voight is solid as always. Mission: Impossible has some elements of suspense, but it is mainly the thrilling action scenes that put this film over the top. Overall, Mission: Impossible is exciting and satisfying to watch and is recommended to any who have not seen it.

    I was very disappointed by this movie. I was expecting a more entertaining movie, but I found it to be rather boring. Tom Cruise is not an actor that I have much tolerance for in the first place, and this one didn't do much to improve my opinion.

    Tom Cruise's acting was excelent. The movie was brilliant and engaging. It keeps you on your feet the whole time.

    Extremly slow, and boring Tom Cruise vehicle based on the campy 1960's tv series. Even some of Tom's die-hard fans may not go for this. Some visually well done scenes, but he wins, and ruins all of them.

    I absolutely love Brian DePalma's directing. I also liked it because it wasn't all about the action scene. It was about backstabs and meticuously laid out plans that worked to a tee. It also was a good spy movie that wasn't like Bond. Bond is good, but there is only one Bond, not to be imitated, and the writers of this movie obviously recognized that. Now the second one, I couldn't tell if I was watching M:I2 or a new Bond movie.

    This is a nasty movie. I mean, some romance is nice and good, like kissing and hugging and loving each other. In reality, just meeting a person after one day isn't much of an ideal mate. It's sick to see "sex" overwhelming the movie and these no plot movies are just all SEX.

    This movie absolutely sucked. The tv show and ads for this movie made it even more of a let down. It was confusing and a waste of time, money and effort.

    One of my personal favorites once I could understand the plot. I love the movie because it was original and sexy. Tom Cruise did a fabulous job at holding the audience in suspense. I own the soundtrack.

    I'd shrug this movie off to watch a cartoon. Horrible storyline and chemistry. Not appealing. Though, it has nice action, acting, and some nice innovation. And so it gets 2 stars instead of 1.

    Tom Cruise does a good job in portraying the agent attitude. The director did an okay job on scenes. The story was too confusing and hard to follow. The supporting actors did a horrible job. See the sequel, it was much better.

    Like James Bond, Ethan is our kind of special agent. Het gets to break into facilities using interesting tools and weapons. He gets to look at confidential papers, and gets the girl. What was all bad though is his folks get shot.

    I love Tom Cruise anyway and he just made this movie especially great. I think that all the technology in this movie is amazing.

    This movie was okay. The second part was way better though. Tom Cruise is the man.

    I thought it was pretty good. I liked the action/suspense of the movie, and how they created a real mission impossible and how they did it.

    Overrated and built up way too much. The cast was kick ass, but the storyline was horribly confusing and out of whack with a capital WH. MI2 is way better.

    The movie had a lot of special effects that were appealing to the eye. The equipment used within the movie could have actually been used practically. Basically, I thought it was a real good movie.

    This movie was incredibly intense. It grabbed and held the audiences' attention. It also had specific details that most miss the first time which requires a second viewing. Language could be better.

    I LIKED THE GRAPHICS, BUT THE STORYLINE WAS TOO CONFUSING.

    This was terrible. They completely destroyed any resemblance this movie might have had to the original TV Series, which was fantastic.

    If you're easily confused, don't catch flick. If not, it's got a great storyline!
