They filmed the opening plane stunt 8 times, going to 5,000 feet - take-off and landing, then go again. They also took off at a sharper angle than the plane normally would in order to capture the more striking shot. Cruise had special hardened contact lenses on his eyes because never mind the wind, any sort of even tiny debris at that speed would be very damaging for the eye to say the least.
The mission briefing on a vinyl record is a nod to the very first episode of Mission: Impossible. Briggs receives the briefing on a record that is sealed in plastic. Breaking the seal causes a reaction that decomposes the record.
@@Gunbladewarrior Everyone is so amazed that Tom was hanging onto the outside of the plane but no one ever gives a damn about the poor cameraman taking those shots in front of him . . . . poor guy . . .:)
Yep, and if something went wrong, everybody who worked on the movie would have been out of a job. Stuntmen exist for a reason. Tom just comes across as a showboating adrenaline junkie who is fine with putting the movie on the line because he doesn't want other stuntmen or vfx guys sharing in his glory. But he does make it entertaining, so I'll give him that.
Rebecca Ferguson is the best thing to happen to the Mission Impossible franchise. So much screen presence and coolness. She really does bring it in Rogue Nation and goes even beyond in the next movie.
@thatfilmydesaikid I guess. But as shocking as it was, I will be reserving my judgemet until Part 2. Right now its number 3 in my Mission Impossible rankings
@@thatfilmydesaikid I'm going deeper in to the spoilers of the movie, but that scene was so dumb. She dies, but a regular thief has no problems with going hand to hand against the same dude.
I love how Benji constantly and casually overestimates Ethan’s abilities.😂 Ethan is like “I have to hold my breath for three minutes??” And Benji is just like “you can do that🤷🏾♂️” lol
One of the craziest facts bout Cruise is that yes he can hold his breath underwater for quite a long time. Apparently 6 min!! So all those underwater shots were really done. That takes an insane amt of training to hold your breath and move your body at same time. Bravo to him!! Plus this movie does have real comedic moments & great twists & turns which makes it better than others & it's crazy to think they didn't even have a finished script when production started.
@jamesbond3235 I didn't know that. That's amazing. The amt of dedication it takes them to discipline their body is next level imo. I'd be lucky to last 1 min lol
the scene in garage when he talks with lane(after benji was taken) where he sounds out of breath was apparently shot right after one of the training sessions for underwater shots which is why he is so out of breath and makes the scene even better
this is perhaps the most criminally underrated MI movie. Apart from the crazy action set pieces, the writing in this movie, right from the opening scene, set the tone and it went full on spy mode.
It's only underrated because the two that follow just keep getting better. 4 is when they figured out the formula for MI movies. so from 4 to 7 it just ramped up and got better each time. 8 is going to be mind blowing.
I feel this is still the best one overall. It's very well paced and has the best balance of action, humor, drama, twists, and intrigue. Solomon Lane is low-key unnerving.
Never realised how many Swedish actors were in these movies. Jens Hultén (Janik Vinter) and Rebecca Fergusson in this one and Michael Nyqvist in the former movie. Makes me proud 😁🇸🇪
Isla's fighting style is so cool. The way she moves so quickly and is able to distract one way while attacking the other. Or her signature spin up onto their shoulders and then drop them while breaking their neck. She is an extremely talented agent and a great actress. It's usually typical to start the film shoot with the big stunts. Her first day on set was the jump from the Opera rooftop. And she says she swore like a sailor the whole way down right into Tom's ear.
Missable detail: During the opera scene where Ethan shoots the world leader in the shoulder, you can see Ilsa miss her shot. If Ethan hadn't shot, it would have also hit the leader in the opposite shoulder. She was never gonna kill him. Small but very excellent detail.
As a Viennese, that "Look at that architecture" really made me proud and almost made me cry a little (especially since I'm passing that building, the State Opera, and many similar ones pretty much every day when I go to work and think the same thing)❤ even tho, obviously, I had nothing to do with its construction xD it's just always so nice to see people marvel at your home
Yes it was Tom the entire time, hanging on the side of the plane at 5000 ft., eight times in a row to make sure they had THE shot. In interviews, he said he didn't tell his mom about the stunt until the movie was done and he took her to see it because he didn't want her to freak completely out, lol. They did the drop from the roof stunt on Rebecca's first day on the set. She suffers from Vertigo so the entire way down she said she was cussing in Tom's ear, lol.
She mentioned in a Graham Norton interview that as she was dangling on the side of a building in his arms (on her first day), Tom looked at her suavely and said “Welcome to Mission”.
Oak's reaction to the actor who played Mr Collins is my reaction every single time I see him in any movie, glad someone is finally thinking like me 🤣🤣 also that guy is one of the bad guy in pirates of the Caribbean!! which he is amazing in, that actor is really underrated for his talent to play anything
Elsa(Rebecca Ferguson) dress is actually a "Tactical dress" 😂😂😂 I remember watching bts stuff and she was saying how it actually was made and designed with cuts/slits in the right spots allowing for all the mobility needed. It was actually hilarious hearing "good thing that dress is tactical"
I'm still watching the reaction, so forgive me if you guys mention it later: Rebecca Ferguson's character is named Ilsa because of Ingrid Bergman's character in Casablanca. She actually looks quite a bit like Ingrid Bergman, they both have a classic, delicate beauty while looking at the same time very perceptive and clever. Casablanca is in my top 5 favorite movies of all time, if you guys haven't watched it/reacted to it yet, I highly recommend.
it'd be cool if you guys reacted to a compilation of tom's stunts for MI. tom's a true stuntman. and it's cool how he inspires other actors to have fun with the process too. they talked about his consultations with his main stunt guy and the practices and precautions they take. still very dangerous stuff. with the plane scene, at that velocity, tiny pepples could've blinded him, no matter the protection. he still takes crazy risks and i'm scared his luck will run out in one of his shoots. but i guess for him, it'd be a great way to go out, doing what he loves.
Honestly, if in doubt just always assume that Tom ACTUALLY did the stunt. You had trouble believing that he did the stunt on the tallest building in Dubai and that one was also real.
another thing that I passionately love about the mission impossible movies is the use of silence, ugh so many movies nowadays just put soundtrack constantly which just takes away its importance, when you've got silence put at the right time like when Ethan and Ilsa look at the each other, it make so much more of an impact and when music comes on it hypes you so much more I love the 3 first movies but I'm so obsessed with the filmmaking techniques and editing and writing of the 4th onwards man
Guys here I am again to say: Tom does the entirety of all his fights scenes and stunt scenes as well. If he can’t do it he just doesn’t put it in the movies (since he’s the producer as well).
At 50 I can still do 1:39.46 on a stop watch. Want to say when I was young and still swimming often I could do about 2:24 or thereabouts. Tom did something like 6 minutes I think, I’d have to look up the behind the scenes but they filmed him underwater for extended takes for the scene..
This one is still my personal favorite of the series. Solomon Lane is still my favorite MI villain and the setups were amazing. I love all of these movies (except maybe the second one lol), but this one is still at the top for me.
Yess Rebecca Ferguson is the reason I fell in love with these movies, she made me go back and watch the old ones too to get more invested in the characters. Absolutely perfect piece of casting. I think this is my favourite of the series, with fallout coming in so close behind
There's loads of BTS video of Tom actually doing this stunt while the plane actually takes off to a particular height. And yet still not his craziest stunt in the series LOL.....
The progression of this series is interesting. You look at Bond or Star Wars and there's usually a lot of nostalgia and respect for the early films. And while there's a lot of love for the first and fans of the others I do see a general consensus that the McQuarrie films really began to elevate this series and start getting that perfect balance of tone. Fallout ends up ranking high among peoples' best action movies of recent.
Inclined to agree with that. 1 was good, 2 was campy fine, 3 was a reasonable departure from both but enjoyable & engaging nevertheless, then 4 really brought it back to its ‘roots’ while acting as a partial soft reboot and then McQ began notching it up with each while still managing to keep things somewhat grounded.
watching the underwater scene at the cinema is literally breathtaking, you just feel like you have to hold your breath as well, it's absolutely brilliant
Yes, it was really him. They flew the sequence 8 times to make sure they got all the footage and honestly because Tom Cruise just really likes doing these things. And that's why these movies stand out above all others. Not only is it him, they make sure you can see it is him. And they don't fake the stunts. He also learned to hold his breath for 6 minutes for the underwater shots.
I so love that you finally got to this one! For me, this is the Best of all the MI films, 2nd is- Fallout, and 3rd- The first MI film. I grew up sometimes watching the Tv show, as my Parents watched it. I was thrilled that TC was bringing it back, but for the theaters! I know he must've also watched the Tv show also growing up, as he and I are the same age lol. Firstly, speaking on age....just remember that Tom was 53 while making this! And when I saw him do the plane stunt and the pole climb with his upper body, all I could think is- this guy is really making us 50+ and up group, look Great lol! Grant you now he/We are 61. So he was about 59-60 making the first part of this recent film. Anyways, I very much agree that they had just the right actors in place for their roles. I totally adore Ilsa, as she basically is the Ethan Hunt in Woman form. That's why they play off each other so well. 😊
Loved this watchalong with y'all (as per usual, lol), so thank you for that. The Prime Minister (Tom Hollander), you may also remember from the Pirates of the Caribbean flicks... but also in 2013's About Time, a fun and worthy flick for y'all to check out. It also stars Vanessa Kirby, another MI alum.
highly suggest watching the trailer for the next one before seeing the movie to feel the excitement everyone felt for so long waiting for the next one!
No. Trailers spoil movies. Go in cold. I remember being shocked when I saw who one of the lead actors was. Glad I had gone in cold otherwise it would have ruined the surprise.
His reasoning for doing his own stunts is that audiences aren't dumb they know when it's a stunt double, so to show it's actually him doing it.basically I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing it for all of you
the humor in the mission impossible movies is just so unique, it's subtle but hilarious and it's done in a way that at any moment we could burst out laughing but it doesn't take away the tension of a scene, it's truly masterful humor
@@KickinthescienceHe probably is referring to the overall production of it. Sometimes the whole is greater than then sum of the parts. I rank Fallout second to last (few films exist that are as bad as Mi II ) but that's just me.
I'm still so excited everytime I see Jens Hultman as Janik the Bone Doctor and heating Swedish spoken on the big international screen 😍 Love yall's reaction to this movie too, can't wait to see what you think of the next one!
Somebody may have already commented on this but in the behind the scenes vids or maybe a Graham Norton interview, Rebecca says that her first day of filming was the repelling outside the opera house scene and she was understandably nervous. They did the take and she said Tom said, "Welcome to Mission." Tom laughed and say he would never say anything that cheesy.
If it wasn't for CinemaWins I would have never noticed that Solomon Lane was already in one of the cubicles at the Record Store listening to something and waiting for Ethan. A small detail but it blew my mind!
This is one of my favorites from the franchise. It is really really good. The cast is great, the villain is awesome and the plot and sequences were super well done. Love the addition of Rebecca in this one. She dis a really good job with Ilsa.
As always it should be noted he had wires for the plane scene. As obviously they refused to let him hang from a jet with at least something just in case he fell off. None the less the wires were not some super big rig of safety. Just enough to keep him "hanging on". Removed them with CG of course.
I don't know how long it was, but back when I was taking swim lessons, I held my breath so long the teacher got worried. I don't know what it was but back then, I could just hold and go under for a while. I used to just sit on the bottom of the pool, looking up at the day through the water
I love the fact that both Tom Hollander and Simon McBurney are in this as it’s a reunion of some of the cast of the British sitcom Rev. Sadly the Bishop Of London from that was too busy running MI6 in another franchise 😂
One of my favorite bits is when Oak goes “Ahh the old ____” and says something that’s definitely not common or classically used 🤣 “the old usb in the lipstick”
I remember when Tom was in Vienna to film the opera scenes. That guy really took his time talking to his fans. It was impressive. "Liebe Grüße aus Wien an die Badd Medicine Crew"
I ran into Sean Harris in London on vacation, he didnt look close to what he did here and no one around me noticed him. I asked him if I could take a pic with him and he kindly denied. Seems like a simple man not wanting to be in the spotlight
Christopher Mcquarrie don't forget his contributions to the series as a writer/director help write Ghoast Protocol this was his first as a director and he directs the rest from here on out
The last 3 movies with Mquarrie as the director has been perfect. I rank them like this: 1. Fallout/Dead Reckoning (10) 2. Rogue Nation (10) 3. Ghost Protocol (9.5) 4. Mission Impossible 3 (9) 5. Mission Impossible 2 (8.5) 6. Mission Impossible (8) Yes I rate MI2 infront MI1. I just love that its a "stand alone" just straight out 2000s action movie. I was 12 when it came out. Its super nostalgic for me.
The trick to holding your breath is, you gotta hyperventilate before the act. Was watching a Wim Hoff podcast. I tried to do it along with him, and I couldn't believe myself. Held it for 1.5 minutes and even then, I couldn't really feel myself struggling. It was just a mental thing that I started feeling weird that I hadn't breathed for so long. Kate Winslet did it for 7 minutes.
Double Windsor is the only tie knot I know. Had to do that for my uniform in college I went to a Maritime School so we wore Navy uniforms and the winter uniform had a tie.
This was sooo fun! I love that you are loving this series. Tom's stunts are gettin crazier and crazier, and watching these movies at the cinema is an adrenaline rush! I hope you'll watch the Bourne trilogy also and Bourne Legacy (starring Jeremy Renner), those are also phenomenal spy movies.
This is why Tom is awesome yeah, he's eccentric and that whole scientology thing is weird but damn it he does the crazies things to make a good movie and you have to respect him for it.
Omg I’ve seen this movie multiple times but I never put two and two together. POTATOES!!!!😂 Now I can’t unsee it😭🤣 I can’t believe it took me you guys to connect the dots. And I’ve seen Pride and Prejudice multiple times too😅
Another banger here! And that plane scene by Tom!?!?! They topped themselves again!!! What was your reaction? What did we miss?

You guys should start watching more comedy movies
They filmed the opening plane stunt 8 times, going to 5,000 feet - take-off and landing, then go again. They also took off at a sharper angle than the plane normally would in order to capture the more striking shot. Cruise had special hardened contact lenses on his eyes because never mind the wind, any sort of even tiny debris at that speed would be very damaging for the eye to say the least.

Tom was his own stunt double on the plane hanging scene. Get this. They did eight takes. Eight! That's our lil' Tommy.
What made it worse was it was freezing out there.
@@Gunbladewarrior Everyone is so amazed that Tom was hanging onto the outside of the plane but no one ever gives a damn about the poor cameraman taking those shots in front of him . . . . poor guy . . .:)
@@jasonweible2834 That's because there was no camera man. The camera was rigged to the wing so Tom was all alone on the outside of the plane.

Hear hear!!!
It's my favorite of the series as well. Everything just clicks.
When he was holding onto the side of the plane, their biggest fear was the camera coming loose and hitting him.
Or possibly any type of debris.

It's in every movie pretty much , the strategic calm man is always the toughest to defeat, and Solomon just made that clear
The knife fight with Ilsa and the "bone doctor" is so brutal yet flawless 🔥
Rogue Nation for me still the best one. And Rebecca Ferguson was outstanding.

Who tried to hold his breathing during THAT scene ? Hold your hand ^^
I could only do 1 minute and 30 seconds. I drowned
I'm out of breath just from watching this. I think I did around 90 seconds back in High School or college. Once.
At 50 I can still do 1:39.46 on a stop watch. Want to say when I was young and still swimming often I could do about 2:24 or thereabouts.

His reasoning for doing his own stunts is that audiences aren't dumb they know when it's a stunt double, so to show it's actually him doing it.basically I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing it for all of you
next one is another banger
Tom's stunts are primarily why he has to produce these movies himself. Couldn't get other production Studios to insure him.
the humor in the mission impossible movies is just so unique, it's subtle but hilarious and it's done in a way that at any moment we could burst out laughing but it doesn't take away the tension of a scene, it's truly masterful humor
Ghost Protocol is my favorite, Rogue Nation has the best story, Fallout is the best of the franchise.
If Rogue has the best story then what does Fallout have the best of?
@@KickinthescienceHe probably is referring to the overall production of it. Sometimes the whole is greater than then sum of the parts. I rank Fallout second to last (few films exist that are as bad as Mi II ) but that's just me.
I'm still so excited everytime I see Jens Hultman as Janik the Bone Doctor and heating Swedish spoken on the big international screen 😍
Love yall's reaction to this movie too, can't wait to see what you think of the next one!
Tom did the underwater scene for real. He learned how to hold his breath for over 3 minutes. Dont remember how much
Somebody may have already commented on this but in the behind the scenes vids or maybe a Graham Norton interview, Rebecca says that her first day of filming was the repelling outside the opera house scene and she was understandably nervous. They did the take and she said Tom said, "Welcome to Mission." Tom laughed and say he would never say anything that cheesy.
If it wasn't for CinemaWins I would have never noticed that Solomon Lane was already in one of the cubicles at the Record Store listening to something and waiting for Ethan. A small detail but it blew my mind!
This is one of my favorites from the franchise. It is really really good. The cast is great, the villain is awesome and the plot and sequences were super well done. Love the addition of Rebecca in this one. She dis a really good job with Ilsa.
Well now that you mentioned it, I just remember I can only turn sharp to the left too lol
Well if Oak's afraid of heights, keep him far away from 'Fall' (2022) 😉
As always it should be noted he had wires for the plane scene. As obviously they refused to let him hang from a jet with at least something just in case he fell off. None the less the wires were not some super big rig of safety. Just enough to keep him "hanging on". Removed them with CG of course.
I don't know how long it was, but back when I was taking swim lessons, I held my breath so long the teacher got worried. I don't know what it was but back then, I could just hold and go under for a while. I used to just sit on the bottom of the pool, looking up at the day through the water
Tom Cruise's stunts are so crazy, that's really him hanging off the side of a plane . . . the PLANE is a "stunt plane". 😂
Solomon Lane is the Moriarty of the Mission Impossible franchise
I love the fact that both Tom Hollander and Simon McBurney are in this as it’s a reunion of some of the cast of the British sitcom Rev. Sadly the Bishop Of London from that was too busy running MI6 in another franchise 😂
These guys sure do like to say “the ole” a lot. My grandpa use to say that a lot lol ya’ll are hilarious 😂
“Mr. Lane, meet the IMF!”
Love that line!
Absolutely, Oak, my dad taught me both the full and half windsor knots as I went off to the Navy👍🏻.
this is the only movie I've seen 3 times at the cinema ever and honestly couldn't get bored of it
One of my favorite bits is when Oak goes “Ahh the old ____” and says something that’s definitely not common or classically used 🤣 “the old usb in the lipstick”
I remember when Tom was in Vienna to film the opera scenes. That guy really took his time talking to his fans. It was impressive. "Liebe Grüße aus Wien an die Badd Medicine Crew"
I think they could have done a spin-off series with the llsa character.
Let's not talk about Ilsa. It's too painful.
25:02 the sound design alone gives you the chills.
Yeah I definitely almost passed out when I saw this in theaters. Underwater scenes are too much.
I ran into Sean Harris in London on vacation, he didnt look close to what he did here and no one around me noticed him. I asked him if I could take a pic with him and he kindly denied. Seems like a simple man not wanting to be in the spotlight
Christopher Mcquarrie don't forget his contributions to the series as a writer/director help write Ghoast Protocol this was his first as a director and he directs the rest from here on out
The guy who played the prime minister was also in 2 of the "Pirates of The Caribbean" movies I believe as well.
Ilsa Faust is my favourite character in the whole franchise!
Dude from Pride and Prejudice is also the leader of the East Indiana Trading Company in Pirates of the Caribbean, too.
The last 3 movies with Mquarrie as the director has been perfect. I rank them like this:
1. Fallout/Dead Reckoning (10)
2. Rogue Nation (10)
3. Ghost Protocol (9.5)
4. Mission Impossible 3 (9)
5. Mission Impossible 2 (8.5)
6. Mission Impossible (8)
Yes I rate MI2 infront MI1. I just love that its a "stand alone" just straight out 2000s action movie. I was 12 when it came out. Its super nostalgic for me.
The airplane ✈️ stunt is real ❤
I heard he also flew the plane he was hanging on. What a mad man 😎
Having not seen Pride and Prejudice, I recognize Tom Hollander from his role as Cutler Beckett in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.
The actor that played the minister plays Lord Cuttler Backet in pirates of the caribbean 2 dead men's chest. Its Tom Hollander .
The trick to holding your breath is, you gotta hyperventilate before the act. Was watching a Wim Hoff podcast. I tried to do it along with him, and I couldn't believe myself. Held it for 1.5 minutes and even then, I couldn't really feel myself struggling. It was just a mental thing that I started feeling weird that I hadn't breathed for so long.
Kate Winslet did it for 7 minutes.
Still my favorite mission impossible movie
My favorite one! Thank you much for doing the series guys! I am having a blast watching with you.
Double Windsor is the only tie knot I know. Had to do that for my uniform in college I went to a Maritime School so we wore Navy uniforms and the winter uniform had a tie.
All of my prayers have been heard!!💜I had no idea you'd started reacting to this series. I'm so hyped, guys!
I love that they got excited to see Tom Hollander, hes also great in the pirates of the carribean movies and the white lotus s2!
IMO, this is probably the best one, because of Rebecca Ferguson. Of the earlier ones, #3 with Hoffman ... he's the best bad guy in the whole series.
A double Windsor is all I use with my ties
This was sooo fun! I love that you are loving this series. Tom's stunts are gettin crazier and crazier, and watching these movies at the cinema is an adrenaline rush! I hope you'll watch the Bourne trilogy also and Bourne Legacy (starring Jeremy Renner), those are also phenomenal spy movies.
This is why Tom is awesome yeah, he's eccentric and that whole scientology thing is weird but damn it he does the crazies things to make a good movie and you have to respect him for it.
Omg I’ve seen this movie multiple times but I never put two and two together. POTATOES!!!!😂 Now I can’t unsee it😭🤣 I can’t believe it took me you guys to connect the dots. And I’ve seen Pride and Prejudice multiple times too😅
Love Rogue Nation, my personal favorite of the series, but they're all entertaining
