This was one of director Brian De Palma's most mainstream and successful films, and it boasted a stellar cast, special effects that are still impressive two decades later, and a wonderful percussive score by Danny Elfman. The composer managed to keep the score interesting without overusing Lalo Schifrin's classic TV theme, which meant that when the theme was eventually used in all it's glory, it was all the more effective.
Starring Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Ving Rhames, Vanessa Redgrave, Emmanuelle Béart, Jean Reno, Kristin Scott Thomas and Henry Czerny. Directed by Brian De Palma, with original score by Danny Elfman and the Mission: Impossible theme by Lalo Schifrin.
