The answer
The movie was Mission: Impossible (1996).
- An operation in Prague collapses and the team is picked off one by one. The lone survivor is disavowed, framed as the mole, and recruits a crew of other cast-offs to steal the very list he's accused of selling.
- Brian De Palma directed it — the horror-and-suspense stylist behind Carrie, Scarface and The Untouchables, handed a summer blockbuster.
- Jon Voight, Jean Reno, Ving Rhames and Emmanuelle Béart.
- The bassist and drummer of U2 recorded the film's theme single — a remake of the original 1960s TV series theme. It went top 10 and gold, and picked up a Grammy nomination.
- Tom Cruise, suspended horizontally on a wire, sweating over a pressure-sensitive floor in a white vault at CIA headquarters in Langley.
