Continuity mistake: When 14k is killed by the Dreadnought, there is one shot of the tank barrel on the Dreadnought pointing straight and then lowering to face 14k's car.

The camera then cuts to a shot from in 14k's car and the barrel is now pointing down at 14k's car again. There is no time for the barrel to move that fast. (01:13:55)

Revealing mistake: When the Mustang does a handbrake turn as the Dreadnought takes a shortcut, there are a set of tyre marks exactly where they turn. Granted it's a racetrack, but to be directly under the Mustang's wheels? Clearly from a previous take. (01:11:50)

Suggested correction: They are different shots. When the first soldier is blown up, there is only one soldier visible behind him. When the second soldier is blown up, you can see multiple soldiers behind him. Also, the second soldier has a limb blown off, which can be seen in the explosion, whereas the first did not.

Behind Enemy Lines (2001)
Plot hole: When Burnett is hiding in the mass grave, the people on the ship are watching a thermal image of him. When he falls, his arm is at an angle and stays at that angle. To move under the bodies in the grave he would had to have moved his arm. But it stays at the same angle throughout, so how could he move under the bodies, without his thermal image moving?
