Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith star in this beloved sci-fi action comedy as secret agents who supervise aliens who live on Earth, hiding their existence from humanity.
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol - Comedy Central - 9pm

Speed - ITV4 - 9.10pm
Our pick for tonight, Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock star in this '90s action thriller about a bus that is rigged by a terrorist (Dennis Hopper) to explode if its speed falls below 50 miles per hour.
Boasting one of the best premises of all time, incredible action set pieces and a terrific cast, very few blockbusters have ever topped Speed in terms of tension and thrills.

Saturday Night Fever - RTÉ2 - 11.15pm
John Travolta stars in this much-loved drama about a young man who tries to escape his problems by dominating the dance floor at the local disco.
The Purge - ITV4 - 11.35pm
The first in the dystopian action horror franchise that boasts a pretty intriguing hook: what if for 12 hours a year all crime was legal?
Ready or Not - Film4 - 11.40pm
Another great horror, Ready or Not centres on a new bride (Samara Weaving) whose wedding night takes a sinister turn when her eccentric new in-laws force her to participate in a terrifying game.
Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation - Comedy Central - 11.40pm
While not as good as the aforementioned Ghost Protocol or Fallout, Rogue Nation is another very solid entry in the spy franchise.

This fact-based drama tells the story of two men who fell in love in Britain in 1952 when homosexuality was a crime.
