Continuity mistake: When Teabing rolls the Cryptex to Langdon near the end of the movie, in one shot we see that the Cryptex rolls to a stop about 6 inches from Langdon's knee, but when the shot changes to an overhead view we see the Cryptex is now suddenly at least 2 feet from Langdon. Then the shot changes again and its now more like a foot from him.

The aide is poisoned by Teabing and police shoot Silas (Paul Bettany) to death and arrest the bishop (Alfred Molina) after finding out that he used Captain Bezu Fache (Jean Reno) to do his work.
