Continuity mistake: When the President at the end holds the medal for the 'unknown soldier', the medal at Scott Speedman's neck is nice and straight in the close-up, but curls up above the star in the shot when the Pres quotes Tupac. (01:32:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Darius pushes the buttons turning the lights off in the cart where Deckert is holding the President hostage, he begins shutting down the lights behind them, but in the reaction shot those lights are going out later. Moreso, before the camera cuts away from the switches, we see three lights turn off at once, one being below Stone's fingers. (01:28:40)

Continuity mistake: When the bad guys open the doors to the bullet train track using President James Sanford's hand, look at the corridor double door. When XXX arrives, he finds the same open doors with door stops that weren't there a moment before. (01:21:00 - 01:21:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: By the power of schizophrenic montage, X and Steele turn around hearing the arrival of Charlie with Gibbons, are side to side, and in the next shot they are on opposite sides of the huge hall and blindside them. (01:19:10)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the President realises who's behind the coup, he walks towards him.asking "Are you doing this?" His hair is just fine and very Presidential, but when a cut later he asks "Are you familiar with the word 'treason'?" his hair is messy on his forehead. (01:15:10)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Darius and his posse start their assault on the renegades. They drive on the sidewalk and are about to crash into the road block. In the POV shot there's just a couple of soldiers in their way, who move rapidly out of the way. The next shot shows the same spot but on top of 2 soldiers who still have to move out, there's also a construction worker with a hard hat and more people. (01:13:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: In the silly scene of the two truck drivers getting out to offer some assistance to the skanks, look when the one in red says "Hi boys." The one in white has her hand on her hip, but in the reverse shot she's playing with her hair at shoulder-length. Meanwhile the truck driver tips his hat, but in the next shot his hand is to his side. (01:08:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Toby is dangling off the car from his suction glove in a different position between shots - in particular when he begs Lola he has his free hand on the door and immediately after he has not. (01:07:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Steele comfortably waltzes into Darius' hideout surprising everyone. He mentions some car magic he figured out by ear; notice Michael Roof has some tool between his teeth. "I didn't always wear a suit", Speedman says, and when the camera is back on Roof, he's not goofing around with things in his mouth anymore, but it comes back again when the same camera angle as before is used again. (01:03:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Samuel Jackson yells at XXX to leave them in the cell, he is leaning against the wall in the wide shot, has his arm across the bars in the previous. (00:53:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Darius Stone pimpslaps Charlie Mayweather unconscious. She falls with her left foot under her calf, but she adjusted to a more comfortable position with her leg stretched and one hand up when a second later the guards open the hatch. (00:53:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Following Charlie inside the ship, Darius assaults a guard conking his head against the wall. In the first shot the guy loses instantly his cap, but in the wider angle he has his cap on his head almost all the way to the floor. (00:52:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Stone holds in close-up the photo someone somehow took of him with Pettibone by the upper left corner, which becomes the bottom left when he throws it down on the table in anger. (00:45:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Darius finds the random gun in the middle of the corridor and picks it up with zero precautions because he's obviously an idiot, the gun casts a shadow on the tiles at a different direction and angle in the first shot and in the close-up. (00:42:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Charlie intervenes to fetch Darius who is making his escape from the party; forgetting the question on how could be in her car so fast, she travels in reverse gear a much lengthier portion of road than the one she traveled to pull over by him - even accounting for a different depth of field of the camera. She then nearly crashes into a taxi that in the second shot struggles to get inside the entrance of the alley nearly as much as in the first. (00:39:50)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Darius is making his way through the party crowd after the former SEAL member spotted him. Look when he drinks the last glass of champagne; in the background there's the same woman with a pearl necklace his pursuers already passed by. It's like they are -ahead - of him and not behind. (00:39:15)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: After the funeral, Charlie is walking in a mall. Behind her there's a man with a maroon tie chatting with a woman at his side. He carries a beige coat that in the second shot is held differently, showing its black interior. (00:34:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: For his escape, Ice Cube leaps on the incoming surprise silent chopper. The trajectory of his leap is different in the various shots - he was never gonna be able to grab the skid the way he was falling in the first shots. (00:12:45)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: With a gun pointed at his head, Gibbons retorts that General George Deckert does not seem to do "any of the dying." Look at the shadows on the doorframe, and look at them again when the camera is back on Samuel Jackson; big change even if he surely didn't go anywhere. (00:29:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: As Ice Cube waltzes into the truck after the boat stunt, Shavers stares at him. Behind him you can see the car window is half/a third of the way up. With all the commotion, it's unlikely that Shavers decided to close it a bit; it was practically all the way down before, when Darius told him to get his butt off the driver's position, and up when he was saying there was a problem. (00:24:50 - 00:25:20)
