Tom Cruise loves movies. This isn’t always the case with actors or even movie stars, some of whom may be good at faking it but really are more interested in fame and fortune than they are the cinematic experience. And while Cruise may be one of our last, true movie stars, it’s pretty hard to question that his feelings for the art of moviemaking are real.

I mean, Steven Spielberg himself gave Cruise credit for saving Hollywood after the pandemic.

In that particular case, Spielberg was talking about Cruise’s insistence on releasing Top Gun: Maverick in theaters during a time of great uncertainty in the industry. A billion and a half dollars later, Cruise clearly made the right call there. But there’s another key ingredient to the once and future Ethan Hunt’s strategy to keeping cinema alive – and that’s his frankly insane stunt work.

Tom Cruise has been making movies since 1981, and became a star within two years of that with the release of Risky Business. He’s had his ups and downs over the decades of course, but one thing that audiences have come to expect from the actor in recent years is him doing his own stunts. And not just that, but one-upping himself with each subsequent Mission: Impossible movie, especially since director Christopher McQuarrie joined him on the franchise.

So with Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One hitting theaters, let’s look at how Tom Cruise approaches stunts in the Mission: Impossible movies, and how his lifelong love of film has fueled that methodology.
