Ex-CIA Agent Rates All The 'Mission: Impossible' Movies | How Real Is It? | Insider

Former CIA intelligence officer Andrew Bustamante rates all the "Mission: Impossible" movies, starring Tom Cruise, for realism.

Bustamante looks at field-operation scenes in "Mission: Impossible" (1996), with Ving Rhames and Jon Voight; and "Mission: Impossible 2" (2000), with Thandiwe Newton. He breaks down spy gadgets and disguises in "Mission: Impossible III" (2006), with Philip Seymour Hoffman and Simon Pegg; and "Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol" (2011), with Jeremy Renner and Léa Seydoux. He compares Cruise's physical skills to real-life CIA training in "Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation" (2015), with Rebecca Ferguson; "Mission: Impossible — Fallout" (2018), with Henry Cavill; and "Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One" (2023).

Bustamante was a CIA covert intelligence officer for seven years. He worked in the National Clandestine Service, now-called the Directorate of Operations. He is the founder of EverydaySpy, an education and training platform that teaches espionage tactics for everyday life. He is also the host of "Everyday Espionage Podcast."

Dead Reckoning Part One, starring Tom Cruise, is in theaters July 12.
