6. Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation (2015)

And the controversy begins! Okay, Rogue Nation was Christopher McQuarrie’s first Mission: Impossible movie and it’s awesome. Legitimately awesome. But so are the other five movies above it on this list. The reason I put Rogue Nation here is because when you watch it—especially in context of the films that came before and after it—it just feels a tad smaller. Like McQuarrie and Cruise were just getting to know each other and didn’t want to try anything too wild. And so we’re left with a great movie that feels just slightly less epic than the others.
