“Mission: Impossible” is one of the longest-running and highest-grossing film franchises ever. This article ranks every single film in the series from worst to best.

The ranking comes courtesy of Rotten Tomatoes, and ranges from a lowly 57 percent to a sky-high 98 percent. It represents a spread of movies that are nothing if not unpredictable - but that's what makes them so fun. Regardless of the critical consensus, Tom Cruise and his band of international agents are a force that can't be stopped, running towards and indeed away from explosions since the first release back in 1996.

These are the best (and the worst) “Mission: Impossible” movies .
