I own this on DVD.
I don't understand all the hate this movie gets. People say it's the worst of the series. Well maybe it's just that all of them are so good that even the low point is still so great? I personally feel that the first film is the worst. Even though that movie is also good.
MI:2 is my personal favorite of the saga. Call me a 90's kid through and through if you like, but I love the rock and roll aspects of the film. The action is great, the villain is good, the girl is hot as hell. I just love this movie. It's my favorite.
Mistake status: I have not yet looked for any.
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.
Sean Ambrose: In just a few hours you can be assured of going down in history as the typhoid Mary of "Aus." G'day.
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?
Question: What style of black leather jacket does Ethan Hunt wear just before the chase scene near the end of the movie, I've been looking for ages trying to find something similar?

Answer: The costume designer was Lizzy Gardiner, who can be contacted through Sandra Marsh Management (smarshmgmt@earthlink.net). The IMDb is the best place for questions like this.
