MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (1996) has an 11 minute sequence where Tom Cruise hangs inches above the floor and the movie somehow makes a drop of sweat feel like a bomb. Brian De Palma turned silence into an action sequence.

The cut the scene where Reno bit the rat too

He gives him the knife back in the new one it was awesome.

The direction of this film is on point. That scene is just captivating. Fun fact: a lot of people back when it came out thought the plot was confusing, but it’s super simple watching it now lol.

Why tf does he make that noise when a rat walks up?

Still the best Mission: Impossible film. Nothing since has its atmosphere of espionage and innocent-in-peril.

that de palma guy seems to know how to set up some good looking shots

It’s a good thing he didn’t get a boner when he was down at the bottom there…

I hated Franz

That retard kept messing up every possible way

When you’re really wrapped up in watching that movie, that particular scene is absolutely nerve-wracking. It’s also quite unrealistic as, despite the fact that Tom Cruise is a somewhat miniature human, Jean Reno wasn’t holding a fully grown human’s body weight in that position via a rope & pulley system for that long. But that doesn’t stop it from being an entertaining movie and the 3rd best Mission Impossible movie (behind 2 & 3).

the best part in series..

That scene is proof you don’t need explosions to create insane tension Every second felt like a ticking bomb 🎬🔥
