Audio problem: During the opening credits, when the bullet's in the factory, the box in front gets a lid put on and then nailed. The box the bullet is in gets a lid on but no hammering is heard, so all the bullets would have fallen off when the box was loaded off the belt.
Lord of War (2005)
1 audio problem - chronological order
Directed by: Andrew Niccol
Starring: Nicolas Cage, Ethan Hawke, Jared Leto, Bridget Moynahan
Factual error: When Yuri is narrating about selling weapons for the US government (this was around the scene when he sells M-16's by the kilo), he mentions Lieutenant Colonel Southern. However, when you see the him, he has Colonel rank, which is a silver eagle. The Lieutenant Colonel rank is a silver leaf, not an eagle.
Yuri Orlov: [To the ATF agent who has apprehended him because his brother, who died of "natural causes", has a bullet in his body] I don't suppose this is about alcohol or tobacco.
Trivia: When Director Andrew Niccol was out buying thousands of AK-47 for the movie, he found that the real stuff was less expensive and more readily available than fakes. After the movie he had to resell them, and found himself becoming an arms dealer.
