The Medallion

Audio problem: At one point in the movie Jackie flips over top of a table and says, "Sorry!", but his mouth isn't moving. (00:30:15)

Audio problem: When Giscard comes running while Snakehead is with Jai, Giscard shouts "It's the cops.", however his mouth still moves after the sentence. (00:11:55)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Jackie and Nicole get to Watson's house the sun is shining. When they get out of the car the sun is gone. The sun appears and disappears during the shots outside Watson's front door. (00:25:50)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When the first man is about to jump off the "Sea Horizon" we see him leap. However he is standing a couple of feet away from the edge of the deck. The camera angle makes it difficult to see this, but we are just led to believe he is jumping. When it cuts he actually jumps. (00:17:05)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Jai gives Snakehead his life back, there is a close-up of the medallion. We can see the leather band of the medallion around their hands. When it cuts the band is gone. (00:59:30)

Mortug

Deliberate mistake: After the curtain begins to burn, suddenly all the curtains are burning. This would only happen if all the curtains were lit individually. Only one of the curtains caught fire when Snakehead kicked the candleholder. (00:12:15)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Snakehead kicks the candleholder over making the curtains catch fire, we can actually see some sort of an electric spark igniting the fire. (00:12:10)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Jackie is fighting the two guys in the sewer he kicks one of them and splashes some water on the wall beside them. Later we can see the wall is completely dry. (00:11:30)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: At the office when Jackie is messing with Watson making him believe that people around them are looking at them as a "couple", Jackie switches from kneeling down by Watson, to standing and to kneeling again. (00:24:50)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: The rock Jackie picks up in the sewer is smaller than the one he throws in the next scene. (00:10:35)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Watson is carefully hitting Jackie with the pot, Watson turns his face away. When it cuts he is facing Jackie. (00:50:00)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Yang is in the hospital, he opens a door and says "Hey." In the next shot, he is on the other side of Watson. (00:46:05)

Other mistake: One of the guys pulls out a rocket launcher and supposedly aims it at a ship, at one point in the movie. You can see that he isn't aiming it at the ship and the rocket still hits it. (00:16:45)

Revealing mistake: When Yang is supposed to be dead, he swallows. It happens when Nicole is standing over him, right before the camera angle changes. You will have to watch his adam's apple to see it. (00:41:05)

Continuity mistake: When the container with Jackie and Jai in it goes over board of the ship we can see the container is green, as it has been the previous shots. When we see it falling in to the water the color is white. (00:37:40)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Jackie and Nicole are walking through the corridor to Hammerstock-Smythe's office they pass by a door right next to his door. However when they enter his office we can see that where the other door actually should be there is a wall instead. (00:21:20)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: At the hospital when Jackie pushed Watson through the doorway, Watson bounces between the walls before finally hitting the door. The way Jackie is standing in the door opening change between the shots. For example, Jackie stands with his right arm down. When it cuts he is holding his right arm by his waist. (00:46:10)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Jackie jumps off the ship trying to hit the escaping boat, he hits a man on the boat and they both fall into the water. When it cuts to the impact between Jackie and the man, it is obvious they both jump from the escaping boat. In fact we can actually see Jackie standing on the boat before he 'falls' into the water. (00:19:20)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Jackie throws the guy head first up in the ceiling, you can see the ceiling move. The ceiling is supposed to be solid rock, so it shouldn't be moving. (01:09:05)

Trivia: Julian Sands, who plays the main villain in the film, was also the voice actor for Valmont in the cartoon series Jackie Chan Adventures until mid-2001. I guess Julian is destined to make trouble for Jackie's characters.
