Continuity mistake: After the milk truck is shot at the four protagonists dive away from a door to avoid the blast. In the next shot Archie lands meters away, far beyond jumping distance. Then they are swept back to the door by the resulting milk flood, and when Archie gets up it's again far away from the door, against the direction of the flood. (00:24:00)

Continuity mistake: When Ron takes off in a helicopter after his argument with Archie, Archie gets bothered by the wind. You can see that both his hands are empty, but when he covers his face with his hands he is holding a pair of sunglasses. (00:09:20)

Revealing mistake: When they find the paper map sticking out the Iraqi soldier's bottom it is neatly rolled up and straight. One should imagine it being quite crumpled after having spent some time in this particular hiding place. (00:08:00)
