The Expendables 3 (2014)

Corrected entry: At the end, the timers restart counting down from 3 seconds - not enough time for Barney to get to the roof and run across it before the building blows up.

Correction: The building was wired to blow sequentially, from one side to the other. The building did, in fact, start blowing up well before Barney got to the roof, and was very visibly still blowing up as he ran across the roof. The film does not even try to convince the viewer that Barney got out of there before the explosions started. It's a pretty intense moment, actually, as he races the explosions across to the helicopter.

Corrected entry: When Barney's new "team" is captured, he is given 48 hours to rescue them. In that time, he flies 6000 miles from Romania to New Orleans in a 300 mph turboprop, does maintenance on the aircraft, picks up his old team, and flies another 6000+ miles to another country, where the team enters a decrepit hotel to effect a rescue.

Correction: 300mph for 6000 miles is 20 hours. Twice is forty hours. There's nothing to suggest it took him more than 8 hours to do his maintenance work. So there's his 48 hours.
