MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III Movie Reaction! | First Time Watch! | Tom Cruise | Philip Seymour Hoffman

[@EleventhCubFan]

Philip Seymour Hoffman is the best villain in the series. R.I.P.

[@MrBoyYankee]

Owen Davian, one of the 🐐 of villains.

[@WildanMendi-qy6hp]

I Agree

[@LeDedoubleur]

One of , but for me the best vilain is the former MI6 agent, Solomon Lane , he was a threat to Ethan Hunt and the world in both Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, and Mission: Impossible - Fallout. Lane is the only antagonist to battle Ethan Hunt across two films, and even with his supposed death, it’s impossible to know for sure. Lane is a true sadist, an evil and cunning man who will do anything, and stop at nothing, to achieve his evil goals as the terrorist leader of the Syndicate. I Put Davian after him .

[@zacbassham]

One of the craziest opening scenes in an action movie ever. Phillip Seymour Hoffman is incredible as the villain in this one.

[@PurushaDesa]

“Impersonating clergy is a cardinal sin.” You didn’t get enough credit for that one, kid. 😎

[@anthonyvasquezactor]

This was the turning point of the franchise, where it finally shaped into what it's now known for. This formula would be solidified by the next installment, "Ghost Protocol" which revived both the franchise and Tom Cruise's star power.

[@scottbarkley496]

Revived TOM CRUISE what ? TOM CRUISE has been the biggest movie star in the world since 1986 😂

[@gabrielgingras814]

​@@scottbarkley496 His public perception was fumbling a little between 2005 and 2010. The Burj Khalifa stunt had a lot of influence to his image.

[@anthonyvasquezactor]

​@@scottbarkley496His career faltered in 2004 with the controversy surrounding his personal life and incidents like the Oprah interview. With that, most of his movies released between that year and 2011 tanked. "Ghost Protocol" brought him back to the A-list.

[@orangeclover21]

Nah.. Ghost Protocol was too cringe for me.. It had way too much comedy and light-heartedness. I think Rogue Nation was able to capture more of the espionage feeling that MI:3 had.

[@scottbarkley496]

@anthonyvasquezactor the only movie that didn't do well during that period, is 'knight & day' Talking outta your ass i see.

[@wanderingaj8030]

That line "I'm going to find who you love and I'm going to hurt them"... hit so hard instead of I'm going to kill them... Hurting just hit so ominously... he was the best villain....

[@SpartanShepard]

These movies somehow keep getting better after this. 6 is my favorite, but I will not fault anyone for having 4,5,7 as their favorite, they're amazing

[@SuperBrooklynite007]

I agree I really hope 8 outdoes it

[@jkhoover]

I disagree, because III is my absolute favorite. It's a perfect action movie, IMO.

[@Sam_of_Anarchy92]

Tom Cruise, Ving Rhames, Maggie Q, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Simon Pegg and Laurence Fishburne and the late Philip Seymour Hoffman (R.I.P) did a fantastic job is this movie, what am i saying they always do great in everything

[@Gr8movies12]

Phillip Seymour Hoffman playing Tom Cruises playing Philip Seymour Hoffman is really a sight to behold. This is a great entry in the franchise.

[@jkhoover]

Wassup?

[@shesemerald2011]

RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman who ate his role up and held nothing back.

[@auslandermercury972]

Dude, Keri Russel’s death scene is so jarring. It shook something in me the first time I saw it in theaters. I’ll never forget it 😢

[@hydralissk]

I am so glad this movie got such a great reaction. It didn't get its due in theaters due to Cruise's antics at the time, but the film was so damn good. Philip Seymour Hoffman is still one of the best villains of the franchise.

[@joshuacampbell7493]

This Villain in the sequel is so unhinged. I love it.

[@obenohnebohne]

The action might get crazier from here on out, but I love this movie the most, because it is the most personal. The villain is terrifying, the action is amazing, but yet feels grounded. M:I 3 is my favorite. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

[@she_who_dares9713]

Same! Love all 4 and up, but this is where it all really started for me.

[@danjquiroz]

No disclaimer needed, this is that sweetspot GOAT.

[@auslandermercury972]

Oh! And Philip Seymour Hoffman is an absolute vision as a villain. He’s probably still my favorite of the series, even though there’s some really great ones after him.

[@DASamX5453]

The actress that plays the female in the group, that drives the Lamborghini in, Zhen, is Maggie Q. She was in the reboot of La Femme Nikita, one of my favorite TV Shows 😎😎 She's awesome 😎

[@cavaughngrace1488]

I wish someone would react to Nikita from 2010 with Maggie Q. It was a good show

[@ambrosiogiovanni6952]

Yes! Another Nikita enjoyer! I love that show, and Maggie Q will always be one of my favorite female action stars, she's amazing.

[@crashfan9997]

She was also great in Die Hard 4 the following year

[@kevinporter7065]

Yessss! Love this movie. ❤ Philip Seymour Hoffman 😢

[@mojoshivers]

This is a sentimental favorite of mine. While I don’t think it’s as good as the newer films starting with 4, I think the whole Ethan gets married is a great development for the character. And I think Seymour Phillip Hoffman is the scariest and most intimidating main bad guy this team has ever faced. He’s just menacing.

[@jkhoover]

This one is still my favorite. I believe it's perfect.

[@mojoshivers]

@@jkhoover Yeah, I still think this is one that has the most character growth for Ethan. None of the others are so laser-focused on showing his interpersonal relationships as much as this one.

[@christianrunfola9461]

P S-H absolutely stole the show. Once of the most sinister villains in any spy thriller. Maybe one of the most rewatchable of the series.

[@andydorman2119]

They finally actually EXPLAIN the "Your mission, should you choose to accept it" intro to their missions in the last two movies. VERY cool!

[@kgbabyteddy]

In case no one's pointed it out, this particular MI movie was created because Tom saw an/several episodes of the show Alias and got in touch with JJ Abrams (that's why JJ directed it). Felicity herself, Keri Russell was cast by JJ and a lot of the "Alias" themes were adapted to this movie. And yes, PSH is the best MI villain, IMO. So happy you're reacting to this! This and Ghost Protocol are my favorite MI movies 🤩

[@awakeningcry]

did you never see Rogue Nation then? at least that one has a femme fatale who keeps you guessing whose side she's on. Where even was the "big bad" in Ghost Protocol?

[@JasonAkersMusic]

14:51 One of the best things about this movie is the speed at that the Italians were yelling and pissed off, and then in a second, they were super cool. HAHA, I love it.

[@aendery2k130]

This is the most underrated of the franchise. Such a good movie.

[@philburton2223]

At this point I 💕 all reactions with Michael Bose he is now my favorite reactor on this channel😊

[@Vulcanerd]

"It was a really quick in and out!" - Kristen Stephensonpino, 2024 😆😂

[@arraymac227]

'My favorite so far.' When they realize that is not going to stop.

[@TheBlond49]

From now on the franchise gets better and better.

[@steved1135]

Well... to a point. Rogue Nation is peak but, after that...

[@jamesdamiano8894]

This was so much better than the second one and where the series ramps up. You get a new regular in Benji. The first one still holds a special place for me being the first. The upcoming ones has some of the craziest stunts in any movie.

[@billbillinger2117]

Hoffman is still the best MI villain, in my opinion. He played this role so well! R.I.P.

[@suriyaphromnopavong5272]

Ethan masked as Owen Davian telling Luther that he'd already gotten married was Phillip Seymore Hoffman mimicking Tom Cruise's voice.

[@chriztianrox]

Great reaction! I think this one is arguably the best out of the entire series of movies. They all are good, but I really love this one.

[@awakeningcry]

I'd say this and Rogue Nation are my faves, but I haven't watched Fallout and later

[@ross8884]

I love how you appreciate Simon Pegg in this movie. I feel weirdly proud and protective of him. I'm from the UK, a LITTLE older than you guys and have been a huge fan since he supported Steve Coogan on stage in 1997! Comic/Acting genius!

[@bbcseriesfan]

When I saw the movie in theaters the first time I cheered for my little English fellow. To me he'll always be Shaun and Nicholas Angel, and but now he's also my Benji and no one can touch a hair on his head in the upcoming eighth movie or I'll riot.

[@luissantos7343]

Such a underrated movie in the franchise. This was the turning point from cheesy and cool to fucking awesome! The second movie wasn’t as well received as the first one; JJ Abrams wasn’t yet considered a movie director, only TV, and Cruise had the whole Scientology and crazy breakdown on Oprah. All this was the perfect storm for this movie to be devalued and ignored, I think.

[@latech7671]

So, as you probably know the first 5 movies in this franchise were all done by different directors. Between 2 and this one there was A LOT of time that passed because Tom Cruise didn't see any reason to do another (and the second one was not received very well so it didn't seem like a big franchise). The reason this movie was made is because of a TV-Show or more specifically the director for that TV-Show: J. J. Abrams. Tom Cruise like that show and the directing from J. J. Abrams a lot and wanted a Mission Impossible in a similar style so he brought him in and they made this movie. This was basically J. J. Abrams first Blockbuster he ever directed. So, in a way the 3rd Mission Impossible revived this franchise and made it possible for it to become a franchise at all. The next one however would also become a "first" for the director they hired (and honestly this one is even more wild to me): For "Ghost Protocol" they hired Brad Bird how is most known for "The Iron Giant" and "The Incredibles". YES, Brad Bird was a director of only animated Movies. Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol was the first Live-Action Movie he ever directed which is absolutely crazy (especially once you have seen that movie). MI: Ghost Protocol is the movie in this franchise that shaped how a modern Mission Impossible looks and how it is made. After Ghost Protocol even with a new director the movies did change somewhat but not as dramatically anymore as before. So, MI: Ghost Protocol basically found the DNA of this franchise. With the 5th however, they also found the Director for this franchise: Christopher McQuarrie. He already helped with the 4th movie but fully directed the 5th and every MI-Movie after that. He did keep the style of movie from Ghost Protocol but with every new movie he did change the style at least a bit (even between the movies he directed) but the style-switch is not nearly as big as changing directors from 1-4. In a way I am kind of sad that they don't change directors anymore since that was pretty unique for this franchise (and they were on top of that really bold in their choices for Director) BUT the style they landed now is so good that you can't be mad about it. Well, I wanted to give this as a background before you go into the modern era of Mission Impossible. I hope you read it and enjoyed that bit of background information

[@berky1976]

Out of the first three, this was definitely my favorite as well. RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman... I remember him all the way back with the movie Twister, which is the first movie I ever saw him in and he was amazing in that as well. This one may just be my all time favorite out of the series. It was such a step up in action, screenplay, emotion. It was great seeing your reaction to it mirrored my first time.

[@pricemoore2022]

Awesome reaction of my favorite Mission Impossible movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊

[@she_who_dares9713]

Oh man. Finally! I've been waiting ❤

[@xtheregulator42x]

RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman

[@ChrisTheAspergerGuy]

I second everything you two said about this movie. All the Mission: Impossible movies are awesome, but this one is one of my favorites in the franchise. I feel like we finally got to know Ethan more as a person, not just as a spy, and the storyline was more personal for him.

[@wildhunt6350]

Im always thinking that no reaction channel NO ONE EVER watching this movie, mentions that IF the bodyguard looked behind the door, that bathroom will NEVER recover from the damage if a fight breaks out 😂🤣

[@chrismcfetridge620]

Definitely one of the best M.I .Movies in this franchise so far, everything is increased by 100. Brilliant by J.J. Abrahms. Philip Seymour Hoffman made such a great villian. I would have loved to have seen him in one of Daniel Craig James Bond Movies. Maybe for the C.I.A. would have been cool. Anyway a Great Addition to the Franchise. Unfortunately the latest one "Dead Reckoning " just tried to do to much at once. Will be interesting to see how many more M.I. Movies we will actually get. You 2 reacting to Movies is always a great time. 🍿🎬😎

[@javelldunn3379]

RIP Phillip Seymour Hoffman this movie is the best 😢❤

[@PuluSus]

Yes, my favorite reaction team is back let's go!

[@benmason9755]

Yay! Benji's arrived! Love that you love Benji, EVERYBODY loves Benji! Simon Pegg supremacy!

[@swish007]

PSH was such an amazing villain. the scene on the plane is masterclass acting. PSH so easily conveyed how much more power you can convey over someone even while being tied to a chair as their captive

[@Agitatius]

25:03 "It's all good, man."

[@joshuacampbell7493]

Next, Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol.

[@penglipurlaraduniamaya6577]

yup....and that's my favorite...can't wait to see their reaction

[@awakeningcry]

@@penglipurlaraduniamaya6577 what do YOU like about it, that makes it (in your opinion) better than 3 or 5?

[@THEREALBRUTHABROWN]

You guys are so fortunate!!! You are entering PEAK Mission Impossible territory good schitt ahead

[@popculturewatch8689]

I love that JJ just made an episode of Alias and threw mission impossible on it. And it worked!

[@jonathanpowell7256]

This was the first movie that JJ Abrams directed. Tom Cruise wanted him to direct tge film based on the successful spy series he created 'Alias' starring Jennifer which actually borrowed the masks from this franchise.😊

[@TECHIE_101]

finally!! need faster uploads of mission movies!!

[@botz77]

This is where they got the formula for these movies. Fun, funny, and action packed. Reminds me of the best Roger Moore 007 films.

[@dlweiss]

Hoffman's villain is rightfully praised, but I also wanna shout out Simon Pegg's performance here: he instantly makes Benji loveable, hilarious, and indispensable. :)

[@dax977]

Great reaction both 👍🏽 loved how into it you both got 😂😂 now.... from here everything gets rampped up and bigger, better, and the characters are great ❤

[@tinalouise5301]

Absolutely my favorite Mission Impossible 🎉 Great job!

[@williamcolepaugh951]

Can't wait to watch you both watch the others....great ride!

[@ssj4megaman]

From this one is where all the fun begins.

[@pduidesign]

And they keep getting BETTER AND BETTER AND BETTER!!!

[@auslandermercury972]

Oof, I love that tongue-depressor scene. It’s such a nice touch, and when he says, “I love you,” just before they violently snap. It’s such a nice moment. Another nice touch 🥲

[@fourze4z138]

Tom Cruise's acting when the fake wife was being threatened was great, still to this day.

[@Lloyd00]

The opening to this movie is one of the best!

[@StevenFleming-x7q]

This Is The One That Got Me Hooked On The M.I Films i didn't think the first 2 movies are that good, But then came along the 3rd film & I think it's just Fantastic, Great Story, Fast Paced, & As usual Great Stunts & The Late Philip Seymour Hoffman is Superb in this.

[@kaleiohulee6693]

MI3 is still my second favorite of the series... such a solid film, for me this is the one that established it as a real franchise and somehow it still gets so much better.

[@lazypaulreact]

This is the movie that change the game of this franchise !!

[@unclelink]

"Gone Baby Gone" and "Day And Knight!"

[@RJAnime]

woooo great reaction this is prob my fav out of the mi movies. they keep getting better!

[@scottbarkley496]

TOM CRUISE = LEGEND

[@botz77]

Understand that Phillip Seymour Hoffman was an up-and-coming star at this point and this performance put him over-the-top.

[@BattleAngelFan99]

Yep starting with this movie, they're all good and each a bit unique from the others.

[@AngelRoy-ve1rr]

I loved your reaction and plz do the next one within a week or two. I have been waiting for so long for this one.

[@jamiethevis7356]

Phillip Seymore Hoffman is still one of my favorite villains.

[@Moballack]

The best villain in the franchise # Philip seymour hoffman

[@klass_1221]

Many harp negatively on JJ Abrams (for Star Wars and Trek). But he did a fantastic job revitalizing Mission Impossible. Since part 3 on. His influence has helped Cruise elongate this franchise. The dudes from Bad Robot Pictures. RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman. The best "villain" in the M:I franchise (thus far).

[@mauriceedwards9588]

It steps up from here onward each film is trying to outdo the last one so enjoy you two.

[@tiffanykim2773]

Part 2 is still my favorite lol but this one is good too. Great reaction guys.

[@michaelnemo7629]

This is the best one of the entire franchise imo.

[@drlee2]

"I think this is gonna top the 2nd one." Not hard to do since that's an incredibly low bar to have to top! LOL

[@auslandermercury972]

I’m gonna have to go back and watch your reactions to the first two after this. I can’t miss a reaction to this movie. It’s one of my favorites 😃 As others have said, this is the shift in the series, and it lets you know from the get. That opening scene is probably more intense than anything in the previous two. It’s incredible.

[@MithunFernandez]

Thats priceless architecture, thats pricesless architecture 😂😂😂😅😅

[@louisenglish8069]

Cruise really learned his lesson after the second one, franchise only gets better

[@CyclopsScott]

This movie just rules and goes to the next level

[@samraleigh2234]

Simon Pegg (Benji) is awesome … can’t wait for you to see the rest :) I will add to this. I don’t know if you read comments. But, the first was a Depalma film, who was a big 70s suspense director. The second was a John Woo film, who was a big action director. So, there wasn’t a sense of the character through them. And what Abrams did was bring both together. And that’s why I loved this one. Because the character should be awesome and then bring in the team. And now we have 4 more movies haha

[@SuperBrooklynite007]

I remember Watching this in theaters and was bummed thinking it was supposed to be the last one because Hollywood was big on trilogies around that time I was so happy when I found out years later that they were continuing with a fourth one

[@mickyjoe97]

It's good that yous enjoyed Benji so much because you're gonna be seeing a lot more of him from here on out lol

[@bradleythebodycount29]

You guys are going to love Benji (Simon Pegg) 😂

[@jaysreacts]

This has always been my personal best one for sure 👏

[@kurtwagner350]

This film has weirdly become underrated.

[@lchigoKurosaki]

Hype, MI3 is insane

[@rickytan9123]

It seriously only gets better

[@LThompson59]

Benji becomes a team member from this point forwards along with Luther. With this being JJ's directorial debut, it changes the franchise for the better, Tom also became 1 of the producers, which is part of why he does as many stunts as he does, because both of them want to up the ante with each film. The most recent film 'dead reckoning pt 1', was the most dangerous film to date regarding the stunt work.

[@ninipookie]

That’s a spoiler. You let them discover on their own. It’s more fun that way. I hope they don’t read comments

[@HskHeroReborn]

This is the one the that changed the tone for all the Missions moving forward

[@princesilver1387]

"democracy wins" best line a villain can say.

[@Recogneyez]

This and Ghost Protocol are my favorites

[@ThePwig]

Still the best one in the whole series. PSH is an absolutely amazing actor.

[@hannahawesome85]

The whole team should have codenames so that villains don't know where to look for their loved ones so easily. 😅 The plane scene I was like: Luther, stop saying his name over an over! Shut up or call him sometimes else! 🤦‍♀️ That's the only thing I would change in this franchise. More ALIAS:es and less real names. This movie is fantastic, intense and a lot of fun! Phillip Seymour Hoffman was a great villain! 💜
