Way back in '96, I remember the theater was dead silent in this scene. Until I realized I was holding my breathe and started giggling uncontrollably. Lol! Yeah, that was me that you heard.
Mene Tekel That's a very good point. They go through all the trouble of sneaking in there and then a rat waltzes in there like it owns the place. Gaping hole in the plot
As iconic as this scene is, just never understood why a place that could afford the most state of the art security couldn't at least have the most basic motion sensor inside that would have just prevented this whole thing lol.
I mean everything in that room is literally the top secret of top secret, and its content can only be known by a handful of people. Having a camera to record stuff in there would mean that there's a video recording somewhere that can be stolen for people to know what information is available in that room and what kind of requirements are there to access information in that room. The camera would simply astronomically increase the chance of success in break-ins. As for motion sensors, there's a laser grid at the top of the room. They probably anticipate anyone to break through that part alone. Plus having temperature sensor, voice sensor, and weight sensor all there in the same room seems more than enough to serve as a valid replacement of motion sensor. I mean how can you make a move without making a sound or an increase in temperature? To sum it up, this room alone is already wrapped inside layers and layers of security, and to pass them is already a task that's near-impossible to be done. And stealing information from that room is even more impossible. This is practically no different from shooting torpedoes into that two-meter radius thermal exhaust port on the Death Star where, unless you have some unkown magical force to aid you, it is impossible to be done.
What gets me is that you could make a case for an amount of overconfidence such that adding even a cheap motion sensor to the security system would feel like overkill, sure. But you know what always drove me nuts is that you'd think it would be possible to have the system set off an alarm if someone, I dunno, *actually uses the computer while there isn't an authorized technician in the room.*
First mission impossible is my favorite. I'd put it up there as one of the best spy movies I've seen. Love the tone and espionage vibe. The tension here in this scene is unreal.
+Irshu LX There is no way a professional would freak out and starting panicking and gagging because a little rat walked by. That would be right upfront in the questionaire - Do you have any insane phobias that could possibly come up and compromise the mission endangering everyone?
+Irshu LX agree with this - the level he was off the ground completely does not correspond with the angle of his hand. He was too close to the ground to have that amount of flexibility, even if he was a Russian gymnast.
The fact that Jean Reno was in this and Ronin playing the same basic role, and DeNiro was in Ronin and Heat also playing the same role, always made it feel like a shared universe to me.
I'm using this scene in a project on how music can change the emotion of a scene, and how different types (or lack thereof) of music in a movie can completely alter what the audience feels. Thanks!
@@randomguy6679 also, IIRC, Cruise wanted other Directors/producers to take other subsequent films, and give their interpretation of the MI series.

that was close. If Ethan makes a noise, steps on the floor, touches the web, or razes the room temperature the alarm will automatically go off causing the room to be flooded with hylon and Ethan getting caught.

They showed the knife in his hand after the kill but still, they should've shown the kill else it is useless.....or they should've shown him slipping the rope accidentally n catching it again without the rat involved bcoz in that tight security neat n clean system there won't be any rats which make noise
asked the same question so i came here to check, i thought it was a cut scene or something, but to put it all together I'm guessing that's why leon had a knife in his hand and dropped it after sliding to get the NOC list
He falls and gets saved but I'm just going to let him hang there right above the floor for a couple of minutes and not pull him up. That part never made sense. "PULL ME UP JACKASS!"

This is probably the most iconic scene that anybody knows of any mission impossible movie not to mention my favorite scene and sadly I did not get to watch mission impossible through whatever which one we are up to now in the theater but I have watched them on TV but I’m sure it didn’t do them justice but I am still a movie theater type guy despitethe craziness in this world yes, I still go to the movie theater
When Hunt dropped near the floor, the air pressure under his body would've triggered the alarm because it was shown earlier that a drop of water triggered the alarm.
A multi-million dollar security system... Why not have a motion detector like a small business has? Then there would be no need for a human-size air vent.
I was thinking the same, man. My parents had a sensor out the front of our house for activating the outside light. For such a major scene, it made no sense.
