At first some may consider it confusing, but its really not that bad

Again the original is usually the best. And in my opinion, so far, "Mission Impossible" is no different. With a blend of action, mystery and some spy techniques, "Mission Impossible" is actually really good. The whole movie may seem to be too much at once when first viewed for some, but it really isn't. All it is, is an action movie with some decent twists that could easily throw some people off, but they are actually really simple.

Now, I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise and his lifestyle, as a matter of fact I hate to keep tabs on any celebrities life style, it makes me feel depressed that this is what it has come to. But I am a fan of Tom Cruise the actor. I have mentioned this before and sincerely believe that he is a great actor, even if he has starred in more action movies than any other genre, but he has proved that he can be good in other movies such as "Jerry Maguire", or "Inteview With the Vampire".

"Mission Impossible" is really better than most action films out there, because it actually keeps a believable plot without throwing in some excessively strong hero and a country sized army that gets killed with one magazine from a G36K. It is believable, it is memorable, and it keeps you involved and curious as to what is going on. The only problem is I usually like to watch action movies to laugh, but this one actually tried to keep it serious.

Anyway, I enjoyed this one, so if you like action movies see if this is any better.
