Here's How You Can Watch Every Mission: Impossible Movie

The good news for those of you desperate to watch Tom Cruise run through majestic cities across the globe is that you will be able to revisit a couple of the Mission: Impossible franchise's best films (2011's Ghost Protocol and 2018's Fallout) in the streaming realm. As a quick refresher, Ghost Protocol is the fourth film in the franchise, following 2006's franchise-saving (and J.J. Abrams-directed) Mission: Impossible III. It also found Oscar-winning Pixar alum Brad Bird (Ratatouille, The Incredibles) taking the reigns and pushing Ethan Hunt and the gang — with newcomers Jeremy Renner and Paula Patton in tow — further than ever before in their attempts to keep a nefarious terrorist (Michael Nyqvist) from launching a nuclear attack against North America. And yes, this is the film that saw Cruise dangling from a skyscraper in Dubai, which remains one of the single most thrilling action sequences ever committed to film.

As for Fallout, it's the sixth, and most recent, chapter in the Mission: Impossible narrative. It's also arguably the best of the bunch to date, tying together several of the series' narrative threads, and blowing full steam ahead into a final showdown with the franchise's most intriguing villain, Solomon Lane (a rarely better Sean Harris). Fallout is also the film that featured a serious act of daring-do from Cruise in the guise of a sub-space HALO parachute jump (the series' second-most-thrilling sequence) and an infamously mustached Henry Cavill (Man of Steel) doing that insanely cool thing where he cocks his arms like they're loaded guns.

If you are down to revisit either of these marvelous Mission: Impossible flicks, you can currently find each on either Amazon Prime Video or on Hulu.
