Premise
Tom Cruise stars in a movie adaptation of the 1960's TV series.

Loved
Danny Elfman's score, De Palma's style.

Disliked
The ultra-confusing plot.

Thoughts
It has been a long time since I watched it, but I remember Brian De Palma's cool visuals, Danny Elfman's kick-ass score, and some fun action like the wire scene. It had two of the coolest actors in Ving Rhames and Jean Reno as sidekicks.

I also remember getting extremely confused by the plot, even after multiple viewings. And even though I never saw the series, I did not like that it was more of a Tom Cruise vehicle than an ensemble effort.

What I would change
Not sure.
