Factual error: Ethan decouples a moving train, moving the chain link by hand. Impossible as there would be massive tension on it.

Luther Stickell: Ethan, what's your objective? What's your ultimate objective?
Ethan Hunt: Your life will always matter more to me than my own.
Luther Stickell: None of our lives can matter more than this mission.
Ethan Hunt: I don't accept that.
Trivia: The actor playing new IMF agent "India Zulu 254" is Alex James-Phelps - possibly a deliberate casting choice given a main character in the series and original film is called Jim Phelps.
Question: Why did Daniel and Ethan fight on the train hand-to-hand, instead of using guns? (02:16:00 - 02:20:00)
Answer: In an enclosed place, a bullet can ricochet around until it hits something - one of them or an innocent person: man, woman, or child. Worse, it could hit a section of the train, a brake line, a cable connecting the cars, or one of the conductors.





Answer: Maybe they didn't have any guns at that point.
