The Medallion

Deliberate mistake: After the curtain begins to burn, suddenly all the curtains are burning. This would only happen if all the curtains were lit individually. Only one of the curtains caught fire when Snakehead kicked the candleholder. (00:12:15)

Deliberate mistake: When Giscard jumps over the bikes you can see the bikes are stacked closed to each other. When Jackie 'runs' over them the distance between the bikes has increased. This was probably done to make the 'running' more natural looking. (00:30:25)

Mortug

Deliberate mistake: At the pier when Watson parks the car he parks right next to a white van. When it cuts we can see Watson's car has moved a few feet away from the van so that it is possible to open the doors of his car. (00:32:45)

Mortug

Deliberate mistake: When Jackie tries to avoid the Jamaican guy he jumps up to a higher deck. As we see him duck out of sight it takes him about 1 second to get to the other side and jump down there. However it's at least 40 feet to get to the other side. Jackie is usually fast but not that fast. (00:34:30)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Jackie and Watson are driving Watson's car right after they've been on a video conference with all the professors, they park the car. We see Jackie has his seatbelt on, but when it cuts to him breaking the door off the seatbelt is no longer on him. He could not have removed it that fast. (00:53:40)

Trivia: Julian Sands, who plays the main villain in the film, was also the voice actor for Valmont in the cartoon series Jackie Chan Adventures until mid-2001. I guess Julian is destined to make trouble for Jackie's characters.
