Revealing mistake: When Locke holds up the CT17 fact sheet the article on the bottom of the page is actually the lines of the CIA Agent that talks to Shaw. Right down to remarks about Hattie. (00:18:00)

Revealing mistake: At the start, Hattie flings her shotgun over her back, and runs forward to jump on some boxes. In this shot you see the two bad guys that she takes down stood waiting for their cue to move. (00:01:35)
Continuity mistake: When Hattie leaps over the crates at the start she is still on the crates when the camera changes to an aerial view. In the new angle, she is suddenly kicking 1 bad guy while taking out a second bad guy. Both of whom are around 4ft away from the crate. (00:01:40)

Other mistake: We hear the phone ringing just after arriving in Samoa. All 3 characters turn to look at the phone as it's answered, but the phone is already showing a call time of 20 seconds. (01:21:50)
Audio problem: Hobbs shouts "wait wait wait wait" just before the 5th shock. However in the shot showing both Hobbs and Shaw his mouth isn't moving. (01:11:20)
