The Medallion

Revealing mistake: When Watson is standing over Jackie's dead body and says "I'm sorry I wasn't there when you needed me most, my friend" you can see Jackie reflected in the TV standing ready for his queue before entering the picture. (00:41:55)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Jackie and Watson are discussing whether it's Jackie or not who's lying on the table, and Watson says "Well it's cold in here" it is obvious they are using a double for Jackie lying on the table. The double's nose is too pointy to be Jackie. (00:42:50)

Revealing mistake: When the black guy is on the falling ladder, the ladder slows down as it nears the ground. (00:30:50)

Revealing mistake: When the man who is eating hears Nicole knock on the door and he opens it, there is a shot from the top when she kicks him in the head. If you pause it when her foot has just hit the donut you can see that the person is a dummy. (01:11:50)

Revealing mistake: When the girl sees Jackie is alive, a guy punches through a window. The glass shatters before his fist hits it. Try watching it in slo-mo. (00:56:55)

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

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

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)

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)

Mortug

Revealing mistake: When Eddie Yang is lying "dead" on the table in the hospital, you can see his eyes flicker slightly throughout the scene. (00:41:00)

Continuity mistake: When Jackie and Watson are driving Watson's car right after they've been on a video conference with all the professors, they park the car. We see Jackie has his seatbelt on, but when it cuts to him breaking the door off the seatbelt is no longer on him. He could not have removed it that fast. (00:53:40)

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.
