10 Greatest Ever Tom Cruise Running Scenes

3. Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol

Incredibly, Tom Cruise runs for almost a combined total of four minutes throughout Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, Brad Bird's superb live-action debut that solidified the franchise as one of Hollywood's best.

As you would expect with so much material to choose from, there are a number of excellent Tom Cruise Runs dotted throughout the movie's 133 minutes; in the opening scene alone Ethan Hunt jogs his way out of prison, before sprinting his way to safety during the Kremlin bombing, and even chases a train and attempts to outrun a sandstorm by the time we even get to the final act.

Of course, the best example comes when the world's biggest movie star propels himself out of a window and runs down the outside of the world's tallest building. Why? Because he's f**king mental, presumably.

One of the most audacious stunts ever performed, Cruise literally takes his prowess on foot to new heights in an attempt to entertain his audience.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
