Dead Reckoning: Part One brings one of his most dangerous stunts to date with a motorcycle ride off a massive cliff face while parachuting to safety. It’s an impressive feat and one you must see on the biggest screen possible. Note: They shot this stunt first incase something went wrong and they had to find an alternate plan without Cruise.

In honor of all Tom Cruise’s stunts, GotchaMovies has put together a Top 10 list of what we think are the very best. Enjoy!

10. Free Solo Climbing Cruise : ‘Mission: Impossible II’ (2000)

Mission Impossible II opens with Cruise rock climbing alone in the desert leaping across rocks, dangling one-handed, and performing a pretty great pose for the camera stretched across the rock face.

9. The Langley CIA Break-In : ‘Mission: Impossible’ (1996)

One of the stunts that started it all! In the scene, Hunt drops into the control room and lands just inches from the floor. While not death defying, it is one of the most iconic scenes in MI history.

8. Bathroom Fight : Mission Impossible : Fallout (2018)

2 words: Arm Reload. Watch this scene just for Henry Cavill’s arm reload. Also, this fight scene is one of the greatest action fight sequences put on film that are not involved in the John Wick franchise.

7. Motorcycle Chase : ‘Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation’ (2015)

One of the absolute best chase sequences in the entire Mission: Impossible franchise, the sequence from Rogue Nation sees Ethan and Benji (Simon Pegg) in hot pursuit of Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson).

6. London Chase : ‘Mission: Impossible – Fallout’ (2018)

The stunt which Tom Cruise broke his ankle while jumping across the roof tops of London. While this shut down filming of Fallout for a while, it didn’t stop Cruise from coming back and continuing all his own stunts.

Ethan Hunt and the IMF Team have seen all kinds of bad guys since the very first film, whether they have been evil geniuses, arms dealers or close friends, and each one brought their very own form of evil to the franchise.  GotchaMovies.com believes we have put together a great list and our #1 villain was just too great to not place in the top spot.

Take a look at the list below, give us your feedback in the comment section and tell us your favorite!

#1.  Owen Davian – Philip Seymour Hoffman (Mission Impossible III)

The most evil, violent, well-crafted villain of the Mission Impossible series thus far goes to the ruthless Owen Davian from Mission Impossible III.

Portrayed by the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, Davian was a black market arms dealer who had a very personal and intense encounter with Ethan Hunt. He specialized in micro-explosives which, once planted in the head of victims or hostages, would eliminate targets with quick, non-explosive results. Davian’s goal was to locate an object called the Rabbit’s Foot and sell to a number of terrorist groups.

“You have a wife, a girlfriend? Because you know what I’m gonna do next? I’m gonna find her, whoever she is, I’m gonna find her and I’m gonna hurt her, and I’m gonna make her bleed and cry and call out your name. And you’re not gonna be able to do shit, you know why? Cause you’re gonna be this close to dead. And then I’m gonna kill you right in front of her.”
