10 Franchises To Binge Watch While You're Home (And Their Viewing Orders)

3. The Mission Impossible Franchise

Mission Impossible 2 Tom Cruise
Paramount Pictures

One of the quintessential franchises of the spy genre, Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible movies have given us some of the most thrilling, heart-pumping, double-crossing, plane-hanging stories in the history of film.

Ethan Hunt starts out as a member of the CIA’s Impossible Missions Force. But he and most of his crew are soon betrayed by one of their own and subsequently hung out to dry. The first movie follows Hunt as he fights to redeem himself.

Since then the movies have spanned all kinds of crazy sequences and angles, often at the expense of the laws of physics. But a little bit of suspension of disbelief may just be the order of the day, so strap yourself in and watch the world’s sexiest spy (sorry Bond) do his thing.

Viewing Order:

I) Mission Impossible

II) Mission Impossible 2

III) Mission Impossible III

IV) Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol

V) Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation

VI) Mission Impossible - Fallout

After battling Galactus and pinning Hulk Hogan in the main event of Wrestlemania, I've taken a break from living in fantasy worlds, to focus on writing about them. I'm a comic book geek, a wrestling mark, a break dancer, and a scientist. One of those things may not be true.
