An excellent spy movie

Rating: 10/10 (26 August 1999)

This film is great. I saw it 8 times at the theater. It took me 3 times until I fully understanded the movie. The sad thing is that it isn't really hard to find out who was behind everything. Tom Cruise is at his best playing Ethan Hunt. Jon Voight is great as the famous "Mr. Phelps". The rest of the cast is superb international actors galore: Jean Reno, Emanualle Bearte, Ving Rhames, and Emilio Estevez. Also, wasn't Kirsten Scott Thomas up for an academy award a year or two ago?
