Mistake Continuity: During the chase scene, Marcus and Mike are being shot at. At one point the car headlight is shot out. The headlight is intact for the rest of the scene.

Mistake Continuity: When Mike is driving the yellow Hummer through the shanty town at the end, the side-view mirrors are broken off several times. When the car comes to a rest the mirrors are intact.

Mistake Continuity: When Mike and Marcus are being chased in the Hummer, the windshield gets cracked. During the entire scene the windshield goes from being cracked, to being new again, to being cracked, etc.

Mistake Continuity: In the White Power vs. Blue Power scene, Mike jumps and shoots a bullet in slow motion. While following the bullet, you can see one man take 3 or 4 steps, before the bullet hits Marcus's ass and eventually the guy's neck.

Mistake Continuity: When the Haitians are on the highway, one of the cars fall off and is dragged by a chain and it hits the large black Ford beside it, with just a bridge wall. Then when the thug (the one who says, "Jesus f***") is shown inside the car, there is a Maersk Sealand vehicle there.

Mistake Continuity: When Joe Pantoliano is circling "tactical narcotics team" after the car chase, check out the circle. When he draws it, both ends meet nicely. Next time we see it there's a curve at the end of one line, and the next time they meet again.

Mistake Continuity: When Syd gets out of the back truck after the high speed chase, she has blood on her nice white suit (probably since the guy next to her in the car was shot in the head). However, when she gets out to talk to Mike, her suit is clean and white again.

Mistake Continuity: When the good guys steer the small robot vehicle underneath the bad guys' car, there is a shot without the robot under the car, but in the next shot it is there again.

Mistake Continuity: During the shootout in the street, Will Smith does a sharp turn while shooting at the Haitians and ends up killing one Haitian who falls back on a car. A few shots later at a different camera angle, you see the same Haitian man get killed and fall back on the hood of a car.

Mistake Continuity: After the first car has been thrown from the top layer of cars on the trasporter, the windscreen of the car thrown off is seen to come out. The camera changes and it's back on the car. The camera changes again, and the windscreen pops out for a second time.

Mistake Other: When Mike goes to Marcus's house to apologize, as Marcus lets Mike in and they walk through the house you can see the corner of a very nice built-in pool through the glass doors, even though a large part of the beginning and the end of the movie take place in Marcus's '$3900' portable pool and its subsequent replacement.

Mistake Revealing: When Mike and Marcus are chasing the Haitians, when Mike does a 360 degree spin and then fires his UMP-45, for a split second when he is spinning if you look into the window, you can notice that the driver isn't really Mike.

Mistake Continuity: After Syd is chased down in her black truck with the money in it, she meets up with Mike and Marcus. As she is talking to Mike, her bangs change positions. They go from down, to put up.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": During the freeway chase scene, the windscreen of the car first thrown from the top of the truck smashes out at least three times.

Mistake Factual error: When Syd throws the pistol to detonate the landmine, nobody in the nearby vicinity seems to be injured except one 'bad guy' despite the fact that many modern anti-personnel mines project shrapnel to a radius of 30 meters.

Mistake Continuity: During the chase down the hill, through the shanty town, the bad guy's blue Land Rover's hood is shown smashed and bent upwards several times, but when they emerge at the bottom it is perfectly normal, and in the latched down position.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: At the end of the MacArthur Causeway chase, there is a shot of a police car spinning on its underside. A camera is seen sliding on the road, moving offscreen.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the last scene of the movie where Mike and Marcus are both in Marcus's "new" pool, as soon as the pool collapses into the ocean, you can see in the background a crew member standing there as if he was there to "break" the pool and in a quick shot back to where the pool was, he is gone.

Mistake Audio problem: The sound is off when Marcus and Mike are in the video store talking about "The Box". It's most visible during the over the shoulder shot of Mike miming putting the word "flaccid" in the box. Mike's mouth is CLEARLY not in sync with the words that you hear.

Mistake Revealing: In the highway chase scene, when the car's been shot from the outside, you can see that there is only one person inside.
