Corrected entry: When Liam Neeson's character is in the crash into the river, he bangs his head on the glass, and the scar is seen to the viewer to be on the right hand side of his head, but during the car chase scene, the scar can be seen changing sides from left to right really frequently.

Correction: If you watch the scene where he is retrieving his briefcase there are actually scars on both sides of his forehead.

Corrected entry: When Doctor and Mrs Harris are being checked by customs, they get a stamp in their passport that reads 11 November 2011. But when Doctor Harris wakes up at the hospital after the crash, the doctor who treated him tells him it's Thursday November 24th and he's been in a coma for 4 days.

Correction: Look carefully. The date stamped in the passport says "20 Nov. 2011.

Corrected entry: When Dr. Harris is kidnapped and put in the black van by Cole, thug Gina steals a taxi to follow. When Gina drives off, the liftback door of the taxi is open awaiting luggage, but next shot it is closed.

Correction: It closed when she started the car. Right after the car starts it shows it automatically closing as the taxi driver tries run after it. Maybe it was automatic or maybe the momentum closed it, but in any case it's not a mistake as we see the trunk closing.

Corrected entry: When Martin Harris is attempting to prove who he is in the security office of the hotel, he asks the security to call a colleague. When he gives the number he says, "001.". International calls start with 011, not 001. (00:20:35)

Correction: Actually, you dial 011 to dial out of the US to another country, but you dial 001 when dialing from another country to the US, so the movie is correct.

Corrected entry: When Liam Neeson opens the multiple passports from his briefcase at the airport, the forenames and surnames of the identities are all the wrong way around.

Correction: The passports are fakes. This is a character mistake on the part of whoever made them.

Factual error: In the last scene the ICE Train is leaving the station eastbound. It is not possible to enter these trains at the central station because all eastbound trains end in Berlin and have only one station left (Berlin Ostbahnhof). Every ICE leaving Berlin is going in the other (westbound) direction.

Ernst Jürgen: In the Stasi, we had a basic principle: ask enough questions and a man who is lying will eventually change his story. But the man who tells the truth cannot change his, however unlikely his story sounds.

Trivia: Throughout the movie if you look in the background at the various graffiti tags, one in particular stands out. Look for the tag OZ. In almost every scene that has graffiti on the walls you 'll see it somewhere in the background, sometimes more than once. Although it is common for graffiti artists to leave multiple marks in multiple areas, Berlin is a big city and it can be spotted too often for it to be coincidence.

Question: How is Martin able to freely travel at the end? I get that he has fake passports, but given that he admitted to the German police that he is an assassin, and that he is the one who planted the bomb in the hotel, wouldn't they have shared his picture with Interpol, regardless of the fact that he prevented the deaths of Bressler and the Saudi prince?
