The Exhilarating Stunts in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One

For this sequence in Rome, the makers got a Fiat 500 car customized specifically for the film which is modified to drive at heightened speeds. Speaking of the chase director, Christopher McQuarrie revealed previously, “I don’t think we could’ve made a sequence that was more difficult to shoot even if I had gone out of my way to do it.” The chase sequence is just one of the many spectacles of the feature which also includes a train wrecking, an underwater sequence, and also Cruise riding off of a cliff with a motorbike. The high-octane stunts have been a staple to the franchise and as it draws to a close, fans should gear up for more exciting sequences.
