The Mission Impossible Movies (Story In Action Book 4)

“Good morning Mr Phelps. We've learned that two nuclear warheads furnished to Santa Costa by an enemy power are contained in the hotel vault. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to remove both nuclear devices from Santa Costa before they can be sold to terrorists. As always, should you or any member of your I.M. Force team be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow all knowledge of your actions. This tape will self destruct in five seconds. Good bye, Jim, and good luck.”

For 171 episodes and 6 motion pictures - with a 7th and 8th on their way - this is how the greatest spy series ever has greeted viewers. James Bond and Jason Bourne may have fist fights and car chases, but “Mission Impossible” has all of those things *plus* clever con games, capers and heists. In preparation for the next two films, we are looking at the first six films in the series...

All of six mission tapes, all of the “that’s impossible!” set pieces and stunts, the cons and capers - and how these scenes work, the twists and double crosses, the tension and suspense (and how to generate it), the concept of each film as a stand alone with a different director calling the shots (broken in the new film), the gadgets, the masks, the stories, the co-stars and team members (one team member has been in every film), the stunts Tom Cruise actually did (and the ones he didn’t), and so much more! Including the connection to the "I Love Lucy" show!

Plus Box Office information on each film and all of the critical statistics for each film! And a sneak preview of the two new films!

This book is great for writers, directors, and just fans of the series.
