This week we look at the first two Mission: Impossible films. We discuss the Hitchcockian aspects of 1 and talk about how Kitteridge is kind of like Agent Smith. James argues that M:I2 is reflective of its period in action films, and Alex explains how it is basically just Tom Cruise’s mid-life crisis.<\/p>\n
