    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The famous rock climbing sequence was filmed at Dead Horse Point in Utah. Tom Cruise was on cables which were then digitally removed. Ron Kauk was the climbing double and the overhang stunt was performed by main stunt double Keith Campbell. Director John Woo was so scared each time but "Tom insisted on doing it".
    • Goofs
      (at around 24 mins) The Spanish popular feast Fallas, where wooden figures are burned in the streets, is not celebrated in Seville, as is shown in the movie, but in Valencia. Anyway, the figures never represent saints, but celebrities from politics, sports, society life, etc.
    • Quotes
      • Ethan Hunt: [about recruiting Nyah] I don't think I can get her to do it.
      • Mission Commander Swanbeck: You mean it'll be difficult?
      • Ethan Hunt: Very.
      • Mission Commander Swanbeck: Well, this is not mission difficult, Mr. Hunt, it's mission impossible. "Difficult" should be a walk in the park for you.
    • Crazy credits
      The title doesn't appear until after the opening credits.
    • Alternate versions
      The DVD Version contains an alternate title sequence.
