The Specialist

Continuity mistake: In the bus scene, when Stallone goes on the bus the number is 9372, when he kicks the bad guy out of the window the number on the bus' side is 9369.

Continuity mistake: When the men go up to Stallone's hotel room, you can see them going down a long passage and passing a few rooms before coming to his door. But when the room blows up, the shot from outside the building shows nothing to the left or right of his room. What happened to the rest of the floor?

Continuity mistake: In the warehouse destruction scene, the exhaust fan from near the roof is blown out in an early explosion and lands on a police car. Later in the scene, as the warehouse continues to blow up, the fan is back in place on the building, spinning away.

Continuity mistake: In the love scene with Sharon and Sly, they stand beside the bed and Sharon puts her purse on the bed, when the camera changes shots and returns to the angle the purse is on the floor.

Factual error: In the first scene, when Sylvester Stallone is in Colombia, the city that is named is Bogota. But that is impossible, Bogota is a metropolis of 7,000,000 people, one of the largest and most developed cities in South America, not a jungle.
