If you've ever seen an impossible stunt or a mind-bending plot twist in a spy movie, chances are it was inspired by Mission: Impossible. But what makes this decades-old franchise still feel fresh and exciting today is a surprising blend of consistency and constant reinvention.
Mission: Impossible is trending because its latest film, Dead Reckoning Part One, just hit theaters to critical acclaim and strong box office numbers.
The film, released in July 2023, garnered a 96% 'Certified Fresh' rating on Rotten Tomatoes and grossed over $567 million worldwide.
