Character mistake: When the revolutionary fighter commandeers Air Force One (we only know this once she's in control), a Secret Service agent is trying to break down the cockpit door by banging it with the butt of his automatic rifle. The way he's hitting the door, he couldn't break through a cereal box - it's much too weak. Presumably, the actor is taking it easy on the door because it's a cheap prop door. (00:11:15)
Character mistake: Towards the end of the movie when the Giganotosaurus is attacking the group and Claire gets the rope wrapped around her leg and pulled towards the dinosaur Owen actually shouts Bryce before saving her instead of Claire.
Character mistake: USA flags are supposed to be displayed with the Union (blue area) on top left corner, whether it's displayed horizontally or vertically. USA missiles at times displayed the flag backwards. Also, at the end of the movie, the flag hung on the hangar next to the USSR flag is backward. (01:40:57)
Character mistake: Given how smart the lead is he doesn't seem to know the proper dosage of sleeping meds he put into his mother's coffee. He placed in enough to possibly cause an overdose.
Character mistake: When Jeebs is showing them his deneuralizer and it shorts out a moment, he states he's still running off the 6.0. However the computer display shows he's using the beta 0.93.
Character mistake: At the radio store a sign shown to Jack when he asks if they take personal checks is misspelled. It says "personnal." (00:58:55)
Character mistake: When travelling between zones, they go 12 - 10 - 9 - 8 - 7 - 5 - 4. Which is the only route you can take that includes zone 8 as shown. This is silly as there are quicker routes such as 12 - 7 - 5 - 4.
Character mistake: When Duddit's mom is packing his lunchbox, she refers to him as "Henry". (01:45:54)
Character mistake: There is a typo on one of the monitors. "human PREformance enhancement" instead of "human PERformance enhancement" (00:16:52)
Character mistake: Namibia was said to be in West Africa. Namibia is in Southern Africa.
Character mistake: David Dastmalchian is the Polka-Dot Man, hyphenated in the comics, and in the end credits of the movie. Then again, when Waller threatens to kill everyone off, the name of the character appears in print as Polka Dot Man, no hyphen. (01:49:40)
Character mistake: Mike, despite being an experienced logger, is filing his chainsaw blade in the wrong direction. Also, he's seen filing the teeth of the blade way too many times.
Character mistake: Sam says that Archibald Witwicky explored the Arctic Circle in 1897. But when Frenzy finds the article, it is dated 1895.
Character mistake: In his opening prologue, Burt says the Graboids have been contained to the Northern Hemisphere, showing a map highlighting the Graboid attacks of the first film in Nevada and the second film in Mexico. However, it overlooks the Graboid/Shrieker attack in Argentina, in the Southern hemisphere, shown at the beginning of Tremors 3, an incursion Burt personally put down. It's not like it was classified - characters in that movie talk about it being reported by CNN, and characters in the Tremors TV series talk about it as well. And it's not like Tremors 3 is no longer canon, since Burt makes two references to being swallowed by the Graboid in that movie (which also becomes a plot point in Tremors 6).
Character mistake: When the little girl is about to be blown away by the tornado she is crying terrified, but when she is swallowed by the tornado, spinning around violently, she stays totally calm, even bored. (Laserdisc and international extended editions).
Character mistake: When Adams is chewing out Altaira for flirting with his crew, he says that he is "in command of 18 perfect physical specimens." With him, that would make for a total crew of 19 on the C57-D. But the complete cast only shows 18 names, including Walter Pidgeon as Morbius and Anne Francis as Alta. (And discounting Robby and his human handlers). Thus it would seem Adams is off by three. He has only 15 under his command. I've tried counting them when they're in group shots, but can't see everyone.
Character mistake: When Harrigan is watching the surveillance video by Bill Paxton he states that the helicopter is a silver Alouette when it is actually an AS-350.
Character mistake: When Herr Falkstein introduces himself to Frederick he tells him he has come 5,000 miles to bring him his great-grandfather's will. The ancestor in question was supposed to be his grandfather, not great-grandfather. (00:11:53)
Suggested correction: Victor is Fredrick's grandfather, but not the one who died. Baron Beaufort von Frankenstein died, leaving the estate to Fredrick. Beaufort is his great grandfather.
Character mistake: At the start Smith takes a Krestal ballistic computer and barely holds it out to get wind speed. The proper technique is to hold it at arm's length into the wind.
Character mistake: When Sheriff Flemings arrives at the gas station murder scene, Deputy Baldridge is already there taking photographs. The pair exchange a few words and Baldridge says he can't find the victims body. The pair then look up to see three of the flying monkeys noisily eating Mr Sites corpse on the roof of the gas station. Apparently Baldridge didn't notice this the whole time he was there. (01:03:19)
