Other mistake: In the flashback to Richard's childhood, when he looks from the door at his dad randomly shagging a party guest, the door appears open wider in the POV than it is in the other shots, where the opening barely fits his head. Besides, with the head in that position, he wouldn't see the door handle as shown. (00:02:00)
Factual error: In the opening heist, the gang of thieves wants to steal "The Medal of Zeus." A plate at the museum explains that in Ancient Greece, Olympic champions were awarded olive wreaths, up to the 88th Olympics in 424 BC, when a golden medal was given to the victor for the first time. This last bit about gold medals is just made up by the movie. But it also gets the timeline wrong; the 88th Olympics were in 428 BC. 424 BC is when the 89th games took place. (00:03:30)
Factual error: The streak ended in '04, but at the beginning of the movie the seniors talking about their last game have letter jackets with the year '05 on the sleeve.
Revealing mistake: Crawling through a fire cave you can see propane bottles in the background several times.
Factual error: When the high-ups at the Pentagon are looking at the profiles of the terrorists, Ulrika's profile contains a minor spelling mistake ("Americas" instead of the possessive form), but the fun is in her henchman's file. The guy is named "Grigori Babishkova", which is laughable since "-ova" is the female suffix for Slavic last names, he should be "Babishkov." The Nationality field lists him as being "Russian/Caucasian." Caucasian is not a 'nationality'. (00:05:05)
Continuity mistake: When Kat first visits the detective, she sits on the couch and drinks beer. Behind her is a table with a lamp and a green bottle of beer. The bottle disappears and reappears. (00:34:45)
Other mistake: Prince Shing and the King have a conversation that lasts not less than 5 minutes of movie (which compresses the time somewhat; groups of people get in and out of the large hall, which wouldn't be instantaneous and happens at least 3 times). The conversation happens while the other members of the royal family are running away through a secret passage. With such a considerable head start and wasting no time (they keep moving even when they put mantles on), they are reached by heavily-armored guards, through the same secret passage, within seconds. (00:12:10 - 00:17:10)
Continuity mistake: After David hits Hugh he gets a wound on his mouth which gets smaller the next day.
Continuity mistake: When Hugh Grant writes "Protagonist" on the board, the writing changes depending on the shot, most noticeably the G - sometimes it looks a bit like a backwards question mark, other times it's so slanted it looks more like an S.
Continuity mistake: When the young girl is on the beach removing her socks, she takes three socks off.
Suggested correction: Jess is wearing yellow socks with polka dots, and yellow wellies. There are three shots in which we see Jess removing or tossing her two yellow polka dot socks, and one of her yellow wellies.
Revealing mistake: In the news reel detailing the Kohinoor theft, a few headlines appear, and at least one persists on screen long enough to easily spot the inconsistency between headline and article (filler text presenting a new local magazine from the London district of Lambeth). (00:09:00)
Revealing mistake: The (CGI) wind turbines were awkwardly spaced and incomplete in spots. Ten or more sets of blades (center left of screen) had no towers attached to them - just blades "in the air." The blade lengths varied from tower to tower instead of being uniform and appeared to be disproportionately small relative to the tower heights. Nocelles were absent (or not visible like they should be), so there were no anemometers attached. Most towers did not appear to have a transformer at/near their base. (00:59:07)
Factual error: During the Hungnam evacuation scene in December 1950, a U.S. Army Captain is using a radio handset. The model he uses is the H-250, which was introduced in 1987, over 30 years after the Korean War.
Factual error: In a classroom scene, Mia takes her phone out and checks Instagram. It can be seen that she is on the network "Koodo" - a Canadian mobile operator. The movie takes place in Portland, but is filmed in Vancouver. (01:00:10)
Continuity mistake: There is a scene where she accidentally stabs someone - she gets blood all over her from the stabbing and then in the very next scene is wearing the same shirt without blood stains.
Factual error: When the Germans come to the town a tank rolls through the picture. The first shot shows the tracks, then the whole tank is shown and one can see the tracks again. The turret suggests a Panzer III (which would be accurate for the time). It appears however that the tank is a modified Russian T34 or T55 or something as the road wheels are too big for a Panzer III. (00:13:00)
Continuity mistake: When Paul steals the Camaro, he pulls wires out from under the dash to hot wire it. But after he gets his daughter he suddenly has keys.
Other mistake: During the dinner scene we see Finn pour Newgate a drink. Newgate then goes to drink from it when Eliza kicks him so he spills it. However due to the width of the table this should be impossible.
Continuity mistake: In the beginning, Schapelle checks the boogie bag in in the check-in counter. Then she's seen carrying it over her shoulder. Then a baggage handler takes it away from the check-in counter.
Continuity mistake: Vincent and Oliver are eating ice cream, Vincent's ice cream cone repeatedly changes levels of ice cream left in his ice cream cone as he eats it. (00:48:00)
