In Mission: Impossible, the secret organization IMF finds that it has a mole in its ranks. Only Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) can unmask a traitor. Jim Phelbs, head of the CIA's IMF (Impossible Missions Force), is commissioned to be there with his team when a traitor from the agency's ranks steals the so-called NOC list. This contains the aliases of all CIA agents working undercover in Eastern Europe. As the traitor wants to hand over the list to his buyer, both are arrested. But the elaborate plan to monitor and secure the list goes wrong ... However, what the first part has in advance of the successors is the inimitable structure of suspense and tension. The logistical planning and (failed) implementation in Prague is already captivating but is even surpassed by the break-in into the Langley vault. The scene that has become a legend by now, in which Cruise penetrates from above into the room monitored by lasers, can hardly be missed in nail-biting fever. Mission: Impossible is an agent film from 1996 by Brian De Palma with Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, and Emmanuelle Béart now on 4k Blu-ray and Dolby Atmos!
