Reviews
Mine: Really stupid, and takes its self way too seriously. Badley written. Preposterous ideas. Badley acted. Yuck!
Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: Slick update of the vintage TV spy series about a crack undercover unit is full of high-tech hijinks, as ``team leader'' Cruise tries to learn what went wrong on a crucial mission in Prague--and discover who set them up. Energy wanes at several junctions, only to be revved up again for a train-and-helicopter chase finale. Lalo Schifrin's memorable TV theme is reused here, at a much higher decibel level. Cruise coexecutive-produced. Emilio Estevez appears unbilled. Panavision.
