Character mistake: When the four main characters get together at the end of the movie and meet Luther, it is said to be in Seattle. Benji says all the people around them were almost vaporized. The nuke landed in San Francisco and if it had detonated, it wouldn't have affected Seattle so drastically.

1 character mistake - chronological order
Starring: Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton
Genres: Action
Continuity mistake: When Ethan wakes up in the hospital he realises he's handcuffed to the bed. In the closeup of his right hand, the handcuff is around his wrist with its single metal bar facing out and the double bar facing Ethan, but when the nurse moves his gurney the handcuff is around his right wrist the opposite way, with the double bars facing out. Quite impossible for this to occur. (00:31:50)
Ethan Hunt: Mission accomplished!
Trivia: The number A113 (which appeared in Brad Bird's previous films The Incredibles and Ratatouille) makes two appearances here. The first is on the side of Hanaway's ring in the flashback sequence, and the second is verbally as Ethan's agent ID that he recites through the phone after he escapes from the hospital. (00:14:40)
More questions & answers from Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol
Answer: The Fog doesn't seem to know or care that IMF has been disavowed, as he says to Ethan "You work for the American government?" So Ethan then implies that his contacts in the U.S. government or the intelligence community can benefit him in some way if he helps him.
