(2000) John Woo directs Tom Cruise in the second in his big budget action and espionage franchise, which gives crack agent a new assignment (stopping a deadly biological weapon), a new villain (Dougray Scott), a new love interest (Thandie Newton), and lots of slow motion action with doves flapping through. Ving Rhames, Richard Roxburgh and Brendan Gleeson co-star. Don't miss the hilarious supplement “Mission Improbable," Ben Stiller's spoof of a Tom Cruise double (named Tom Cruze and played by Stiller), starring Cruise as a game straight man and John Woo getting all the best gags, which he rolls off with deadpan aplomb.

The first two films in the big budget, big screen incarnation of the cult espionage series of the 1960s, starring Tom Cruise as secret agent Ethan Hunt. Mission: Impossible (1996), directed by Brian DePalma, puts Hunt on the run when he's framed for the deaths of his espionage team. To clear his name, he puts together a team of rogue agents to infiltrate the heart of his own organization. Jon Voight plays the role created by Peter Graves in the TV show and Emmanuelle Beart, Henry Czerny, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames, Kristin Scott-Thomas and Vanessa Redgrave co-star. John Woo directs Mission: Impossible II (2000), which gives crack agent a new assignment (stopping a deadly biological weapon), a new villain (Dougray Scott), a new love interest (Thandie Newton), and lots of slow motion action with doves flapping through. Ving Rhames, Richard Roxburgh and Brendan Gleeson co-star. The third film in the franchise is due out this spring.
