obviously not as slick as de palma’s espionage thriller prior to this, but john woo put the spectacle into mission impossible. did john woo invent tom cruise, the movie star? albeit the awful exposition in the first hour there’s so much in the action that’s echoed through the franchise, it’s wild this is considered the worst
