Plot |
After he is framed for the death of several colleagues and falsely branded a traitor, a secret agent embarks on a daring scheme to clear his name in this spy adventure. Though it drew its name from the familiar television series, director Brian DePalma 's big-budget adaptation shares little more with the original show than the occasional self-destructing message and the name of team leader Jim Phelps ( Jon Voight ). The film focuses not on Phelps but his protégé, Ethan Hunt (a reserved Tom Cruise ), who becomes a fugitive after taking the blame for a botched operation. He responds by banding together with a group of fellow renegades, and he is soon maneuvering his way through a twisted series of double crosses that mainly serve as excuses for spectacular high-tech action sequences. Much of the activity revolves around a missing computer disk, with the film's most famous scene depicting Hunt's delicate efforts to retrieve the disk from a secure, well-alarmed room in CIA headquarters. — Judd Blaise |
