Mission: Impossible 2

Trivia: When Nyah is trying to convince Ethan to shoot her, she says "Do it. Now!" There is still about forty minutes left in the movie, but those are the last words she says.

Trivia: In the movie trailer Tom Cruise greets Ving Rhames when he lands in a helicopter on a remote property in Australia. He says "Welcome to Australia, mate" with an attempted Aussie accent on the word "mate". But that line was never shown in the movie. Not sure why. Perhaps the producers thought that it may come across as Tom mocking Australians?

Trivia: In the part where Tom Cruise and the girl are arguing, Cruise says 'Then feel better.' Then there is a 3-5 second silence. If you turn the volume up, you can hear sound effects from Roller Coaster Tycoon, a computer game - what sounds like kids playing and screaming on a roller coaster.

Trivia: The cover for the movie is wrong: Tom Cruise wasn't wearing his jacket at the end of the movie when he got the knife cut on his face, on the cover he is shown wearing it.

Trivia: While talking to Ethan, Anthony Hopkins asks him if he would like a cappuciuno. In the previous film, Ethan asks Jim Phelps if they can get a cappucino machine.

Trivia: In the Mission Impossible films, there is always a major character uncredited. In the first film, Emilio Estevez was uncredited as Jack Harmon and in this film, Anthony Hopkins is uncredited as Ethan's boss.

Mission: Impossible 2 mistake picture

Continuity mistake: In the car chase scene with Nyah after they split and hit again and are spinning look at Ethan's car. The driver's side in the close ups was on the American side, then in the spin it is reversed to an English side. (It is a negative image - the license plate is reversed). The next image is back to normal.
