Tom-Cruise-in-The-Mission-Impossible-Franchise
Summary With the release of Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning One, Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible movie series is now up to seven entries, and here are 10 things I learned while watching all of the Mission: Impossible movies in order. Ahead of the release of the latest film, I decided to watch every Mission: Impossible movie for the first time, with this exciting action binge inducting me into the Mission: Impossible fandom.
Although it isn't significantly worse, Mission: Impossible II is a small step down from the first one. While I overall enjoyed both films, the promise of better things to come is what made me stick it out, as I wasn't eager to watch four more films if they were only as good as the first two. While the initial two Mission: Impossible films are still good, they are only a preview of the much better movies that start in the very next entry.
8 Almost Every Mission: Impossible Movie Is Better Than Its Predecessor There Are Very Few Exceptions Close While massive franchises almost always see a decrease in quality after a few entries, the Mission: Impossible movies do the opposite, as almost every entry is better than its predecessor.
6 Philip Seymour Hoffman Plays Mission: Impossible's Best Human Villain No Other Villains Can Compare Close The Mission: Impossible series has introduced a lot of villains for Ethan Hunt to go up against, but none of them are as good as Philip Seymour Hoffman's Owen Davian from Mission: Impossible III. Owen Davian is a huge step up from the villains in the first two, and he remains undefeated when compared to the antagonists in the later films.
Luckily, the use of Rebecca Ferguson's Ilsa, Vanessa Kirby's Alanna, Haley Atwell's Grace, and Pom Klementieff's Paris has shown that Mission: Impossible is dedicated to addressing this issue, and it has done so successfully. These four characters from the recent films are just as interesting as any of the other Mission: Impossible leads, and hopefully some of them return in the next movie.
Ethan Hunt does work with other team members throughout the series, but none of these other spy dynamics work nearly as well as this trio. The Mission: Impossible series clearly knows it, as since Benji was introduced in the third film, this trio has been the primary focus, with them even working together again in Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One. The addition of Jeremy Renner, Alec Baldwin, and Henry Cavill do work, but never as well as Tom Cruise, Ving Rhames, and Simon Pegg.
