I was a huge fan of DePalma's at one time, Carlito's Way was the last great DePalma film. Mission Impossible was surprisingly lackluster coming from this director, but it was saved by some brilliant setpieces, and was miles better than John Woo's hysterically flashy sequel.

And I'm probably the only person here that's watched Mission to Mars more than once, or at all. I know it's usually grouped in with Battlefield Earth and Red Planet but for some strange reason I liked it, even Morricone's odd music score seemed to fit somehow, and he's the last composer you'd think of to score a sci-fi movie. I see Jim didn't think much of it.
