Salt

Revealing mistake: When Salt sits on the helicopter there are two of the same cuts with Salt looking through the heli's window with yawning guy in the background. Cuts split by the view of Washington DC.

Revealing mistake: During the scene where Salt spreads her belongings on the bed of her hotel room after the opening chase, you can see in the close-up shot that the primers of the bullets are missing. This means that the bullets are lacking the necessary components (both the primer and the gunpowder) to actually be fired.

Revealing mistake: In the White House after they have captured Salt and are walking her chained to be transferred, they meet Ted up the stairs and she chokes him with the chains. Liev Schreiber is replaced by a double with a different hair cut. Ted's hair is short while the double's is long.

Mistakes

Plot hole: In the end, all they have to do is ask the President, when he's conscious (Liev didn't kill him; he just knocked him unconscious), who killed everyone in the control room and nearly killed him. He would know who the traitor is and it's not Salt - when they look back at the facts, they'll see how Salt only killed when she absolutely had to, and how she saved lives and stopped a 3rd world war.

Trivia

Trivia: Orlov's "hideout" is on a scrapped ship located in a 'bone yard' of other scrapped ships waiting to be dismantled, etc. This 'bone yard' of ships is located at a landfill site on Staten Island - I believe the name is the "Fresh Kills" Landfill. This is the landfill where debris from 9/11 was taken, and can briefly be seen in the background of a few panoramic shots.
