Continuity mistake: When Vilain has the gun to Billy's head he has it in his right hand. However when he is squeezing the trigger, it's his left finger. (00:36:00)

Suggested correction: It seems to me that it's still his right hand but the camera angle changed for the close up for a better reveal of the trigger pull. So in real life, the camera would have been to JCVD's right side during the scene, but then the camera switches to his left side for the close up. Watching it in real time, it can look like the camera just does a zoom in and now the hand has switched.

Factual error: As the guys zipline down the electric cables, they continue past every pylon without a problem. Cables are connected to pylons, so the connections to the zipline couldn't move past pylons freely. (00:08:10)

Revealing mistake: When the plane goes through the smoke at the start, the smoke doesn't react in any way - it keeps rising. Surely the wind from the plane would make the smoke drift a different way. (00:12:25)
