What used to be an IMF team effort turned into another star vehicle for Tom Cruise.

It's a mission De Palma shouldn't have chosen to accept.
October 29, 2008
De Palma has a choppy, episodic sense of story, and he crafts individual scenes rather than telling a single unified story.
January 02, 2016
The film tries to push against its genre, and the auteurist flourishes are unmistakable.

Sensational, implausible, irresistible to teens.
January 01, 2000
Too devious for its own good.

January 01, 2000
There are just a few groovy special effects and a practically incomprehensible story which we finally can't work up enough energy to care about.
January 01, 2000
An infinite trailer that is all effects, no affect.
January 18, 2002
Humorless, charmless and flat.

Despite the snags, De Palma remains a virtuoso puppet-master, pulling the strings taut in a nail-biting robbery sequence, switching from micro to macro with Hitchcockian panache, and finally letting rip with a hell-for-leather climax.
