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

Eugene Kittridge: Your days of fighting for the so-called greater good are over. This is our chance to control the truth. The concepts of right and wrong for everyone for centuries to come. You're fighting to save an ideal that doesn't exist. Never did. You need to pick a side.
Trivia: After a delay caused by positive covid tests, Tom Cruise personally paid half a million pounds for a cruise ship for the cast and crew to isolate themselves on during filming.
Question: Was Kittridge a good guy or a bad guy? I just couldn't figure him out by the end.
Answer: He's either.

Answer: He's not a bad guy to the extent of murdering and plotting against the good guys, but he's not exactly morally upstanding either. Kittridge doesn't want to destroy the Entity like Ethan; he wants to gain control of it on behalf of the US government and is happy to deal with the White Widow or anyone else to achieve that end. His appearance on the train isn't especially nefarious; he's just the highest bidder.
