Other mistake: When Jim, Selena, Frank and his daughter enter the supermarket, you can notice all the fresh produce (apples, carrots etc) looking fresh. This virus has been going on for a few days now, and supermarkets get their fresh produce out immediately. After 10 days or so, give or take, the fresh produce shouldn't be looking this fresh.

Suggested correction: It doesn't disappear; it is just hard to see. The chain is attached to the actor's back, quite securely, likely for the actor's safety. It is there, though, and can be seen in some shots.
Jim: No, no. No, see this is a really shit idea. You know why? Because it's really obviously a shit idea.
Trivia: The dramatic pause, as the taxi hits the gate near the end of the film, is done so because this was the original ending. Test audiences didn't like the ambiguity of the ending and wanted something more succinct, and so we got an ending-like sequence followed by the actual ending.
Question: Aren't distances in Europe designated in kilometers? Col. Henry West says he and his men are located 27 miles NW of Manchester. I figured he'd use the equivalent distance in kilometers,43 km. Is this common in Europe to use either measurement?
Answer: The metric system is used in mainland Europe, but very rarely in Britain. Road signs are still measured in miles in Britain, and distances usually are too.
