I really do like the movie. My only complaint, and it's a big one, is that no way would Jim Phelps ever become the bad guy. And the sad thing is that if you named the character John Doe the movie wouldn't have suffered at all.
Jean Reno is neither underrated nor underappreciated. He's an international acting superstar. You just feel that way cus his market isn't primarily the English speaking market. He's been called the French De Niro.
The first is still my fav. Mi2 was too lone wolf and didn't feel like an MI movie. Mi3 was a waste of a good cast. The last three have been pretty good, but their focus was more on spectacle than plot and intrigue.
4:10 "all 3 systems are state of the art" *ALARM BLARE* .... love that transition! Such an entertaining scene with only dialogue just setting up another scene.
This 1st installment of the M. I. movie franchise has been and will always be my favorite because of Brian DePalma. His love of all things Hitchcock and of New Wave European Cinema really shines forth more so than all the other M. I. films. Even the lighting in such scenes as the restaurant debriefing scene or right after Ethan's escape from that when he is back in the apartment searching for clues to Job 314 have the look of the original Mission Impossible TV series. The only other M. I. film that comes close is Brad Bird's M. I. III: Ghost Protocol. But this first film stands tall and alone as the most elegant and "film noir" of them all. It would still be great as a black and white film. Perhaps even better !!
@@mustafaabbasi1073far from it. Tonally the recent movies are so different from the 1st. First MI is a dark spy thriller, recent ones are more popcorn adventure movies
I love all Mission Impossible movies, LOVE THEM ALL, except maybe part 2, but anyway... ALL ARE GREAT GREAT MOVIES, masterpiece of action and script. But to this day... Mission Impossible 1 is my favorite movie of this franchise, I cannot even explain it, but it's like this movie... HAVE A SOUL... it's like you can... TASTE IT :D.
Loved 2 actually. Personaly, as a fan of the old TV series, while I acknowledge that this is a great movie, I cannot forgive it for turning Jim Phelps into a traitor who would murder his own team.
Agreed, but everyone is all into the nonstop, cool action sequences of the sequels. What I like about this film is that it takes the time to breathe and has a lot of dialogue heavy scenes like this where characters size each other up.
That and while there are over the top action here, the main meat of this movie was the complex espionage scenes. This Cruise didn't have to cling onto a fucking plane to look like a cool spy.
@@MRJK87. 20 years ago, Emmanuelle Béart >>> Angelina Jolie IMO and the french is 12 years older. Let's keep this memory, though. In terms of plastic surgery, mistakes have been made.
CIA: "We need an impregnable safe room with multiple state-of-the-art layers of security... oh, and one more thing... it needs a big ass air conditioning vent in the ceiling for people to crawl through."
I can imagine if they ask how Ethan knows all this: "I made recommendations for upgrades after I broke in and stole the DCI's calendar during a security test. Twice"
Except He didn't mention any Pentium 1. Listen to Luther, he was talking about future tech like 'Crypto', 'Intelligent systems' and 'Artificial intelligence'.
Ethan never fired a single shot in this whole movie. which shows the realism of it's espionage theme, people think that real life spies are cool, they get to travel into adventure and get womens like james bond. But in reality they are just a bunch of people trying to live like a shadow, and they only ever use guns if it's really necessary. I really love the realism in this movie, the later movies lost that charm
Because of our conditioning, as well as his clothes, Rhames is still Marcellus Wallace in our minds at the beginning of the scene. And then, 1:25, voila - Luther Stickell has arrived.
It’s funny to hear Luther talk about the tech NOW..and what they have today. “…I’m talking about the 686 prototypes with artificial intelligence wrist chips.” Back in the day 686 was a big deal.
That outer keypad really need a box surround so no cams or passers by could record his code! That much worse than you think line just shows the gravity to such a hardened hacker and that Ethan has it all worked out and it wont be easy even to these pros. That 686mhz computer he wants is way fast!! haha least back then it was amazing but dont know how it would go playing doom these days....
Not quite. He could have worked out that she was involved once he realised Krieger was, but he decided that Phelps, who was the biggest mole, could've killed Hannah himself.
Movies like this always have one enormous flaw - how do the good guys know so much about the security specs of the place they are breaking in to? How does Ethan know all of these details about how the security works at Langley? In Oceans 11 how does Danny Ocean know so much about the security in the vault at the Bellagio?
Danny Ocean and Rusty both made copies of the blueprints of the Casinos, there is a scene showing this. Plus he had someone working at one of the casinos who was able to access other rooms that are off limits to the non-workers.
SuCKeRPunCH187 yes but in real life you could never get your hands on the blueprints to a casino vault. They would be guarded as tightly as the vault itself.
sound weight temperature alarms , costly hardware , but the only cctv is to see the corridors , and anyone thinked to put a camera in the room ? 😂😂😂 cia 🏆
lol.. "686". Shows how Really dated this tech is. The 686 was a Cyrix CPU release in 1995 (a year before this movie) and wasnt a strong competitor for Intel and AMD's cpus . By this point, the Intel had launched their Pentium Pro. Which given was their 6th generation x86 cpus, one *could* argue its a "686", but nobody really referred to it as such. Also "No modem access". Modems are still a thing today, but they were referring to Dial-up modems here.
But as it turned out, De Palma was a much better fit than John Woo. M:I2 is like a John Woo action movie with nods to the Mission: Impossible universe. That movie is the odd one out in the franchise, I think.
They could have wrapped him in a full body suit of neoprene, heat-resistant rubber... But then the neoprene would suffocate him. Just remember to go real fast!

Tom Cruise and three underrated, under appreciated actors. Great cast, great film.

I really do like the movie. My only complaint, and it's a big one, is that no way would Jim Phelps ever become the bad guy. And the sad thing is that if you named the character John Doe the movie wouldn't have suffered at all.
@@hblanche And that's why Peter Graves and some of the OG people stayed way the hell away from the project, didnt want to get upset by the changes.

“Relax, Luther. It’s much worse than you think.” 😂
This is my favorite movie quote of all time. It's soooooooo useful in soooooo many everyday situations.
2020......
Classic
👍 there should be a M:I t-shirt with this line ....
🤣🤣🤣
“And you think we can actually do it??
- We’re GOING to do it! “
With that cocky smile… Epic
I love Rhames acting.
"And, uh... I get to keep the equipment when we're done." 😂
Luther, I guess you’re all out of excuses
Bro's a pro player! 😎👍
He's great
Brian DePalma has an elegance I've never seen again in the sequels, there was some sort of unreal irony underlying every scene of the movie.
Yep this is still the best one
Not only that, the deception was credible. Mi -II I love also. MI - III and above are so confusing.
The first is still my fav. Mi2 was too lone wolf and didn't feel like an MI movie. Mi3 was a waste of a good cast. The last three have been pretty good, but their focus was more on spectacle than plot and intrigue.
@@sifunmonthis is nowhere near the best one what 😭
@@afrose71I’d say fallout was the most concerned with plot since the first

I love the Jean Reno part about flying a helicopter into the vault of Fort Knox. 😂
It's a ode reference. They actually did that in the classic James Bond hiest movie - 'Gold Finger.'

Definitely
even in 2021 still EPIC! well done Tom!
What a great chemistry Tom and Emmanuel have!
Jean Reno is the embodiment of coolness.
The first one is also the best movie in the Mission: impossible saga
Agreed, but everyone is all into the nonstop, cool action sequences of the sequels. What I like about this film is that it takes the time to breathe and has a lot of dialogue heavy scenes like this where characters size each other up.
drlee2 absolutely.
That and while there are over the top action here, the main meat of this movie was the complex espionage scenes. This Cruise didn't have to cling onto a fucking plane to look like a cool spy.
No, he clinged into a fucking train to look like a cool spy...
Back then no one expected him to do that. Now it's pretty much "What's he clinging on to this time. A plane, a tall building, his Ex-Wife."
My favourite part of this scene is that the super-advanced AI-enabling computer he's talking about is a Pentium II.
When the late 90s hits a Gen Z kid hard, it hurts.
Pentiums didn't have "AI RISC chips", though...
He said RISC processor -- PowerPC (Macs).
Entity now enemy
Funny to see Luther acting like this is such an impossibly difficult task when you consider what he’s been helping with since then.
Practice makes perfect.
01:38 that actress that plays Claire is a truly stunning looking little chick!
its weird too. she resembles angelina jolie (in my opinion) and plays jims' (john voight, father of angelina) wife.

"We are going to do it"

“We’re Going to do it”
Most iconic heist in cinema history.
And it would have been much more difficult if the computer had automatically locked when the analyst was out of the room.
True
I love that this is a Mission Impossible film but it's also a Brian DePalma film, one of his best in my opinion
The best mission impossible of the series of movies in my opinion 👌
I love the reference to 'Phineaus Phreak' in Dead Reckoning Part 1
I love it too!!
Watching it now
CIA: "We need an impregnable safe room with multiple state-of-the-art layers of security... oh, and one more thing... it needs a big ass air conditioning vent in the ceiling for people to crawl through."
4:26 I wish they had brought Danny Elfman back to score the final two films. By far the best music of the franchise was in the first film.
Definitely my favorite version of the Mission Impossible theme.
04:20 I wonder how many people's expressions were exactly like Luther's, during this scene, when this was in theaters, back in the day...
Best MI by far!
Ethan Hunt meeting with Marcellus Wallace 😂
+Evelyn Verdejo Makes me wonder where Vincent, Jules, and Butch were.
LMFAO!! Basically Ethan formed his own independent IMF team
Man these movies really went nuts later down the line.lmao
They got better. Except the second one.
I can imagine if they ask how Ethan knows all this:
"I made recommendations for upgrades after I broke in and stole the DCI's calendar during a security test. Twice"
*Damn good movie
"We're going to do it?" Legendary words to kick off the fantastic mission
“Phineas Freak”, I just realized that name got a callback, along with the net ranger, during the opening airport scene in Dead Reckoning Part 1
THIS MOVIE DVD ALWAYS IN MY HOME😁😁
Poor guy wanted to keep the 686 (Pentium 1) machine and 56Kbps (fastest dial-up modem at the time 😂😂
Except He didn't mention any Pentium 1. Listen to Luther, he was talking about future tech like 'Crypto', 'Intelligent systems' and 'Artificial intelligence'.
She is unbelievably gorgeous in this movie.. Unfortunately time takes its toll.
it has also been 25 years since this movie so a little bit understandable. Still unfortunate nevertheless
Haha "6/86 with the prototype risk chip" aah those days when 6/86 was considered premium fast.
Factoid, I was told that this is the only mission impossible movie, maybe any action movie ever, where not a single shot from a gun was ever fired.
Theoretically, earlier when Jim Phelps faked his death, he "shot" himself with a blank. Not sure if that counts or not.
And I forgot, there's the scene where Phelps shoots Claire. That definitely breaks that factoid.
There are just a couple gun shots in this film
Dont declare factoids when you 'was told ' something. Fact check your supposed factoids first. Thankyou.

Whenever I see Luther in the Mission Impossible I call him Mr Versace
This mission was a pain in the ass on the n64
At 2:15 Luther explains why the voting booths couldn't be hacked during the election.
Luther was so great in the first film.
In the rest of the films I feel like they mostly just slap him in there with no inspiration.
Yeah like he was just there
I liked his role in Rogue Nation.
Not really I dont feel that way
agree, feels like they gave his role to benji as the 'tech' guy............i would've liked it if they stuck with luther only
There were talking about AI in 1994...
How great two good guys heroes one half good neutral and one villian traitor .😂😉
The only MI-Movie i like.
This is good two good guys one women half evil but more good controlled and one bad guy 😉
Because of our conditioning, as well as his clothes, Rhames is still Marcellus Wallace in our minds at the beginning of the scene.

Luther's nicknames pop up for the first time since this movie in Dead Reckoning Part 1! The beginning of the end really did go back to the beginning!
3:52 "vent is guarded by laser net"

Gameboy Advance had a RISC chip 🤣🤣
Well it 2023, and I got my x86 laptop with AI RISC chip.......so I'm happy now.
Claire slipped up right here...She "found" Krieger. I think Hunt was tipped off right here that Claire was working with other motivations.
Not quite. He could have worked out that she was involved once he realised Krieger was, but he decided that Phelps, who was the biggest mole, could've killed Hannah himself.
