The Contractor

Deliberate mistake: A camera situated behind a front passenger seat of a vehicle could not capture a clear image of the front seat passenger's face (James') in the rear view mirror and then slightly alter its angle to capture the driver's (Mike's) face in the same rear view mirror. (00:21:25)

Other mistake: The woman told James that Salim Mohsin was 42 and conducted research at a private laboratory. The part about Mohsin being "professor emeritus" of virology at Humboldt-Universitat seems contrary to his age (42) and the common meaning of "professor emeritus", which is retired and collecting a pension. It might also be unusual for a tenured professor conducting research at a university to leave in order to conduct research at a private lab. "Other" mistake because not sure of emeritus in Germany.
