When they run away the gap they were looking through is so small only their faces would have been visible from the front. In addition the wall when shown from the front comes only up to their stomachs, but when they run way the wall is higher than they are. (00:05:40)

Alexander picture

Continuity mistake: When Alexander builds an altar for Titans to mark the furthest point he has reached, both him and Hephaestion are reasonably recovered from severe wounds they suffered during the battle of Hydaspes, which was the last battle mentioned. However, we can see scratches and minor injuries on many characters' faces that appear very fresh and would have disappeared without a trace in the time it took for the deeper wounds to heal.

Continuity mistake: When Frankie and Lizzie meet the Stranger on the docks Sunday at 1:00pm, it is quite overcast when the Stranger asks Frankie, "Right. You choose, where do you want to go?"
