Visible crew/equipment: During the car chase the driver's seat on Kent Taylor's car is located on the left side. When he finally gets shot by Barnes and is about to crash, in one of the shots you see a person (in all probability a stuntman) sitting on the right side. (01:17:10)
Vantage Point (2008)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Pete Travis
Starring: Dennis Quaid, Forest Whitaker, Sigourney Weaver, William Hurt, Bruce McGill, Matthew Fox
Other mistake: When Dennis Quaid fires his SIG-Sauer P229 pistol on the bad guys under the over-pass, he fires 28 shots from a 10-12 round pistol without reloading.
President Ashton: He doesn't even look like me.
Trivia: Bill Clinton was interviewed for this movie to get the perspective of the President and how he would interact with his entourage.
Question: When we're following Forest Whitaker he looks up at the "shooter building" right before the shot fires, and he keeps saying "No, you shouldn't be there." Does he know who it is? And who was it? From what I gathered there was no one in the building, and the gun was fired by remote.
Answer: He just sees the outline of a person, who I take to be the SS Agent checking on Barnes' suspicions about the curtain.

Answer: He assumed by the movement of the curtains that there must be someone up there, which of course the Secret Service should have cleared to make sure there was no-one there.
