"Mission: Impossible 2" has the same basic plot as Alfred Hitchcock's classic 1946 Notorious - L'amante perduta (1946). Agent recruits woman in trouble (Ingrid Bergman in Notorious, Thandiwe Newton in MI2) to get involved with bad guys with dangerous weapons (uranium in Notorious, bio-weapon in MI2). The agent (Cary Grant in Notorious, Tom Cruise in MI2) falls in love with the woman. At the end, the bad guys (Claude Rains in Notorious, Dougray Scott in MI2) find out about the woman and poison her. Agent rescues the woman at the last minute. However, the villain's faithful right-hand man warning him of the woman being a mole, is similar to the plot of Intrigo internazionale (1959), which was also directed by Sir Alfred Hitchcock, and also starred Cary Grant.
