Great film. Cruise, Hackman, Tripplehorn - all at top form. Easily rewatchable again and again. 90s was a great decade for cinema.

I love this movie. I never read the book so can't compare but let's face it, how many movies are as good as the book.

I say just sit back and enjoy the movie for what it is, a great Saturday night movie

Going through watching All of Tom Cruise movies and this is one of the good ones. I won't spoil the plot but compared to many movies this one makes you think and leaves you feeling hopeful/good. Tom Cruise acts with more range in this one similar to Jerry Maguire.

A bit long, but well narrated and interpreted.

Ninties Suspense-Thriller. Quite entertaining.

Found the movie dragged on a little at times, and a slow burn to start.. but plenty of twist and turns and an overall good thriller, with a great cast. A young Jeanne Tripplehorn is also very pleasing on the eye!

Jigsaw and ASAC Hank Schrader try to kill Ethan Hunt in this John Grisham-sourced legal thriller!

Strange to rewatch and see Tom Cruise playing lead about joining an organization that controls and monitors its members...

Anyway, I found this nostalgic and delightful. It is overly long, and the pacing does suffer for it. I agree with others that the first half is much better than the second, but it's still a fun thriller.

It's a little long and I liked the first half mystery more than the second half. I loved the score. I didn't expect to see Tom Cruise run in this but was pleasantly surprised.

Didn’t hold up well. Very melodramatic.
