Everything Wrong With Mission Impossible In 15 Minutes Or Less 

Sin: air conditioning is big enough to fit human-cliché.

So does anyone else now automatically have a Cinema Sins announcer in their head when they watch a movie?

The self-destructive tape used in the original series actually had a drop of magnesium on the tape that activated when it went over a drop of potassium with a binary activator on a set point of the tape causing a tiny explosion that would destroy the interior of the tape. This was used in later episodes of Mission Impossible as the effects team thought it would be a great idea to show it off in the show on a reel to reel player... That happened to belong to the producer, thus destroying the expensive reel to reel player. After a few episodes of using stock footage of it self-destructing, they started using cassette tapes. The cast, crew, directors, and producers never allowed the FX team to touch anything of theirs after this incident.

random green jumpsuit guy was hilarious.

That helicopter flying INSIDE THE F*CKING CHUNNEL did not get enough sins.

"So, he killed the rat with his bare hands?" few seconds later... "Why does he even have this knife out?" I always assumed he killed the rat with said knife.

11:33 Ok, random green jumpsuit guy ... run through ... now! Lol

I've worked in highly secure, top secret government facilities. It is actually quite common for there to be no cameras in the most sensitive areas.

Why is it called mission impossible? It's possible, just really really hard to do, shouldn't it be called mission really really hard?

I remember when this movie came out and people complained that it was too complicated and hard to follow, because this was when action movies rarely had a plot of any significance. When I saw it in the theater, I was pleasantly surprised that it made me think and kept me guessing. I rewatched it not long ago and found plot holes that I didn't really notice as a teenager, but it is still a good movie. I assume from the "sentence" that you will be sinning part two next, and for that I thank you.

Have we ever seen the sin counter, even temporarily, sitting at -3?

Mission Impossible 1 is FAR better than its remembered for being.

Man, I forgot how much I loved this as a kid. I also forgot how I used to struggle with the plot.

I am addicted to Cinema Sins and the sexy voice over guy.

Sorry if it's already been mentioned (I didn't have the patience to read all of the comments, although I did read a lot before giving up), but 12:13 - 12:19 is not a sin at all, because this scene takes place in a first class car, which would be populated by business(wo)men and rich people, so the fact that nearly everyone has a cell phone in 1996 actually does make sense (I know, I was 18 in 1996). Of course, to notice this detail, you have to be familiar with the TGV (or its Eurostar or Thalys re-brands), so we can't blame you for that :-)

I've seen this movie twice and I still didn't know what the hell was going on.

You forgot: TGVs are not diesel trains but electric trains. They have electrical masts above their heads. And wires.

Everything wrong with Back to the Future for the 30th anniversary!

Sin: Sharp object stops right before killing the main character-cliché

This guy has ruined me. Now everytime I watch a movie or read a book on Wattpad, my inner cinemasins guy voice clicks on and I become a total critic. Creepy how I don't not enjoy it.

Is this the first CinemaSins where there's actually a negative number of sins at some point?

As of 2019, still my favorite of the entire series!

One sin I've noticed (though I forgive it because it's such a cool scene) is near the end when Ethan puts on the glasses and says "I'm not the only one who knows you're alive." That proves nothing. Just five minutes earlier Ethan was wearing a mask that looked exactly like Jim, so how would Kittredge know he's not just looking at a mask of Jim. If Jim were to kill Ethan, the mask would be found with Ethan, then Kittredge would just assume that all he saw on his watch was a mask of Jim. Still an awesome scene, though.

I totally died when you sinned with "Shaq free-throws" XD

I just finished rewatching all of these in honor of the new one coming out; it had been years since I had seen them. Wow, what an under appreciated franchise.

Also.... I do believe this marks the first time I have seen the Cinema Sins knock off 5 sins in a movie twice. Thats actually impressive!

Now a days I don't watch movies I just watch cinemasins

11:30 had me rolling in laughter. The setup up before definitely helped

Everything wrong with INterstellar

They could have just knocked out the technician instead of waiting for him to leave. That way they don't have to be quiet and can stand on the ground. It's not like they were trying to get away without anyone knowing they were there, because they leave the log there for the technician to see right away. They would have gotten away easier and accessed the computer easier if they just knocked him out when he was using it.

hahaha 11:30!

This is one of the best CinemaSins ever made, always come back to this one.

Everything wrong with Inside Out

Everything wrong with Food Fight

“Excuse me, pardon me, firefighters and women and children first, people.” HaHaHaHaHaHaHa!

HAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHHAAHAHAHHA BRO!! the comedy you dish out in this is golden. The guy running across the set bit, tiny money...jeez I'm just chuckling at those.

You guys are getting generous with the sin removal numbers!

A possible reason for whipping out the two disks during the mission was that he only meant to take one out but removed both instead. As to why he would have more than on in the first place, probably in case something happened to the first one, since disks are known to get corrupted from time to time.

There are several reasons they would have designed the disc so that it wouldn’t transmit location until it’s booted up. 1) you couldn’t exactly have a battery powered tracking beacon attached w/o being noticed, and don’t know how they would get one inside and have it still be a functional disc; 2) In many movies they show trackers with delayed activation to avoid detection. If they were able to get a tracking device inside the disc, the battery would certainly have limited power and would probably go out before it reached the intended target; 3) Having the disc transmit location when it boots up not only solves the power issue and avoids detection, but also ensures the location is revealed only once relevant. I mean, this is a movie w a ton of made up tech; there are obviously reasons they designed the disc to function that way.

I think this is the first time I saw sins taken off early enough that there could be negative sins on the counter. It didn't last long, but it was still there. Impressive.

Pretty useless commenting on such a video but you left out a sin: How was Luther Stickell able to see the sweat drop and its catching, so he could make the 'relieved face' after Ethan caught the drop?

everything wrong with THEY LIVE!

Haha great love your videos seen most of them! Excited you finally did mission impossible! I suggested the movies few months back after watching mission impossible 3 and saw so many sins ! Hope you do the rest of the movies !

You missed a biggie. The channel tunnel trains are electric as you would expect, and run on overhead cables. There are several scenes clearly showing no power cables. And it makes the helicopter thing even more implausible than it was already.

@2:36, you thought he said "Sorry sir" and thought it was strange because it was Sarah's identification that wasn't going through. But the guy actually says "Sorry Sarah". It's just muffled, they way he says it.

I love...LOVE!!!! his laugh!!!!! he is cinemasins...

I've been waiting for you to do this series for a long time.

This video just eviscerated one of my favorite movies as a teenager..... and I loved every minute of it 😂😂😂😂😂

Hasta lasagna, don't get any on ya'. I laughed so hard at that part.

New Mission Impossible movie must be coming out in cinema or on dvd.

There were SO many more but it would have taken too long to note them.. One major one is that if Jim Phelps wanted money- any Mission Impossible fan knows that he would not have to go through all this trouble to get it. Phelps has so many contacts in so many places, he has access to more resources than we can imagine. Honestly, having Jim Phelps go through all that for some money is ridiculous. Tom Cruise just wanted to kill him off so he could create another character and not live in Phelps shadow. It was a silly motive. Totally unbelievable. THANK YOU for doing it :D

That jumpsuit guy part was the best part of my day

5:16 Discount Russian Jude Law Seriously, when was the last 'Discount' joke?

The infamous hanging on a wire scene in this movie was HEAVILY influenced by a rather similar scene in a 70s European heist movie called "Topkapi". I highly recommend it.

I'm not sure why, but for some reason, I become incredibly happy every time you take sins off for anything. It's like finding out you guys have hearts after all! XD

Die Hard overdub, while Ethan was in the vent shaft = Genius.

I think it would be pretty easy to set up a tape to self destruct after playback.

Under 301 Club how many sins do YOU have?!

hah! the "smell my hand bit" was fantastic. Glad you decided to include it. What a bizarre way to show affection towards something.

You got perfect timing, guys. I just re-watched that movie three days ago :D

11:30 I died lmao😂

Dear CinemaSins, I once saw a video where a very wise man named Jeremy said of Hollywood remaking, rebooting, creating sequels the following line: "I get it. I see what happened. Like any huge industry, you set up systems. Systems that are designed to create efficiency. Rules - some written and some not - on how the movie making process makes money. Hero always wins, love always concurs. These directors make money consistently, even though the critics hate their films. These stars are bankable. Over time, these systems became routines and then became habits. Bad habits." Now, I don't begrudge you guys for doing what you think will make you the most money. You're individuals, not some huge industry. I enjoy the channel and find the videos entertaining. But I'd like to point out in just the last couple months you've given us EWW Terminator 2, 3 and Salvation before Terminator Gensyisisys came out, EWW Insidious 2 before Insidious 3 came out, EWW the Lost World and JP 3 before Jurassic World, EWW Magic Mike before Magic Mike 2 came out, EWW Poltergeist before the Poltergeist remake came out, EWW Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome before Mad Max Fury Road came out, EWW Pitch Perfect before Pitch Perfect 2 came out, EWW Hulk and the Incredible Hulk before Avengers 2 came out. Now the Mission Impossible movies kick in just early enough to do them all before the fifth one comes out. Again, not hating on you guys for doing this. Just pointing it out before it becomes as stale as that which you are mocking. Personally, I like the channel best when it's unpredictable and you bounce around all over the place. Give us Interstellar, then the Lost Boys, then War of the Worlds (2005 and 1953), then Top Gun, then Million Dollar Baby, then the Lego Movie, then 12 Monkeys, then Jaws. Spread out the Star Wars movies over the next six months instead of dumping all six in our laps at once. Mix it up! One man's opinion. I'm sure not everyone shares it.

Just watched this great movie again and watched the Cinama Sins take on it. As always a great video. Unfortunately you missed a couple sins during the final scene with the train. 1. The TGV is an electric train which gets its power from electric overhead wires. 2. A helicopter would not be able to track a TGV due to these same electric overhead wires. 3. The TGV train used to connect London with Paris is called the Eurostar and looks very different. 4. The Canal tunnel between London and Paris consist out of two separate tubes, making the cut where Ethan has to jump away for the onheading train impossible. Greetings from The Netherlands and can't wait for you next video. As a movie fan, your video's give every movie just a little extra.

i watched this movie and the second movie for the first time last week and i am in love with this series already

Another sin: You adapt a TV show because it was popular and parts of it are still part of pop culture. You then have every character, despite being played by different actors anyway, turn evil, die, or both. If you wanted Cruise to be the hero, just have HIM play Jim Phelps, the leader in the series, and move on. Then have him form the team from the TV show and have original characters, this Jim's previous team, turn evil, die, or both. This way you don't piss off the very fans you were going for by naming this Mission: Impossible.

I loved Netscape then, and I always will. Good day, sir.

💥💥💥That train-helicopter explosion with Ethan jumping back on train moment blew my mind when i was a kid💥💥💥

I actually laughed out loud when you pointed out the random green suit helicopter guy. I never noticed that before. Incredibly Funny!

"Who's the cute little dollar bill guy..." lmfao. I'm rollin!!

Good job on praising Brian De Palma for his direction. He is awesome!

You forgot to mention that anyone who was a fan of the old TV series Mission Impossible hate this film for what it did to Jim Phelps.

" 'They' could mean any number of people above one". Wow. A lot has changed in 8 years.

how did you not sin the fact that he saves himself from falling off the train by grabbing a windshield wiper? that shit falls off if the rains too heavy

The biggest sin in this is what the writers did to Jim, it's obvious they wanted him out of the picture so that Cruise could hog the hero action, but turning Jim into a traitor goes totally against the character we came to know in the series, at the very least if the writers wanted him out of the way for future franchise, they perhaps could have given him a hero's death.

Great Video 👍🏽

Scientologist crackhead is the star of it. Enough for me right there to just turn it off. Sorry CinemaSins, can't even tolerate a 15 minute clip of yours with him in it.

Tell us the sins of these movies: Jurrasic world Minions San Andreas F&F 7

I love the use of the word "chunnel" at 11:51 and again at 13:45. I know it's a real thing, but it's funny.

Thank you for taking sins off for the computer vault scene. Probably the only part worth watching in the whole movie.

Welcome to the 301 club The first rule is You do not talk about 301 club The second rule is YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT 301 CLUB

The rat was double agent for sure! :D :D

"Come out to the coast. We'll get together. Have a few laughs." lol

You know you've watched these guys for too long that whenever you go to see a movie you nitpick the hell out of it, finding the various "sins" and reading them out in your head in this guy's voice...

I stopped this at two minutes cause damn I need to watch MI again.

3:03 - it's actually possible, believe it or not. Depends on one's flexibility, I just did it.

"Jason Bourne is laughing at your ineptitude Ethan Hunt!" best line!

BTW I just got in from a long, crappy day at work and this cheered me up.

1 MILLION sins for making Jim Phelps the bad guy!! That is what has kept me away from all future "Mission Impossible" movies. That, and they are just Tom Cruise pretending to be James Bond and not really in the spirit of the old MI TV series.

12:40 but it isn't supposed to be cash. its (I think) US Treasury bonds in bearer form.

I love watching these vids

This was when 'Suspension of disbelief' became 'Suspension of Any Common Sense'. That helicopter scene was only missing Wiley Coyote.

Review Winter's Tale!!! It is so horrific!

Shit the pigeons finally assassinated Jeremy.. The uprising has began

10:45 - I worked for a phone comany. They can track every call immediatly right when it is made . And it was like that since forever. The phone company needs to know both phones to actually make the connection and they ALWAYS record at least both phone numbers and the Duration of the call for billing.

"Random green jumpsuit guy" nearly killed me :D

since i was a kid who watched reruns on channel 4 of the original 60 show for me this whole movie and it sequels are one massive sin

Still one of the best spy-thrillers ever made... Brian DePalma rules!

I'm surprised that he didn't get the most obvious sin of the vault scene: if the floor is SO sensitive that it can feel the weight of one sweat drop (probably 1 gram) then the alarms would have been going off like crazy when Ethan slid down!! The volume of air that he pushed down at that speed would have had a force of at least 1 kg! Weigh scales have no idea whether or not something is touching them only that they feel a force! Heck, Ethan probably would have set it off just by breathing while he was at the keyboard!

I want your sarcastic laugh as a ringtone, seriously

No movie is without a sin....except James bond.
