"This tape will self-destruct in five seconds." - Mission Impossible review by CP Customer
Action packed and with a complex plot, Mission Impossible is a slick, glossy spy thriller with good performances from Tom Cruise and Emmanuelle Béart. Watch out for the large shattering fish tank in Prague.

Good but not the best - Mission Impossible review by JD
Having seen the sequels has spoilt me. This is a good film with tons of plot and great action. Cruise is an unsurpassed action hero, but some of the other actors are a little passed their best before date. The helicopter dodging trains in a tunnel is a little unbelievable. The best scene is breaking into the CIA vault. The moment where his sweat runs onto the glasses, the drop sensitive floor inches below, I have seen many times it is a spy drama classic. Nevertheless I could hardly stay still on the sofa. If you haven't seen it recently definitely worth a repeat.

Bunkum but fun! - Mission Impossible review by RP
Totally implausible. Amazing how the technology always works. No fading signals, no fuse blowing , no wrong switches thrown and as for the helicopter in the tunnel episode. Total nonsense! Enjoyed it all immensely!
