Review of Mission Impossible (1971) by Chillindylan G — 01 Aug 2015

Very good action film. Intricate and well-executed plot that doesn't bog down the action. Pacing is strong with varying action sequences whose spectrum ranges from pure exhilaration (train/helicopter) to extreme edge-of-your seat tension (Langley). The cast and acting is solid from top to bottom, and Tom Cruise shows his ability to carry a film of this ilk. Even though it's about 20 years old, it still holds up upon rewatch.

Grade = 8/10.
