The film poster here is a step a way from most film posters of this genre. Its main feature is that of Tom Cruise's face. He is hooded maybe to show that he is being incognito, as is fairly common is spy and secret agent type of films. His face is also coated in numbers and lettering. This seems to relate to codes and ciphers that are often portrayed in these kinds of films, with various objectives being created due to hidden messages and the like. There is only a small explosion, which seems to actually be a fuse of sorts. This indicates that there is a time limit to whatever needs to be accomplished, such as a bomb or other device that causes a detonation. The title of the film is fairly small compared to others of this genre, but it does follow the conventions of other posters. This includes the fact that they chose to capitalize everything and chose to use red and white as their font colour. This draws the eye of the viewer, as this stands out well as it is on a background of quite dark colours.
