Hatcher's gold mine is excavated out of what looks like reddish sandstone rock. However, gold is only found in igneous rock - usually granite (sandstone is sedimentary rock). [The mine is meticulously based on photographs and film of the infamous Brazilian gold mine, "Serra Pelada", which is, as the film suggests, hell on earth. It looks precisely like the mine in the film, so what appears to be 'reddish sandstone rock', is not.]

After Beck drop kicked Harvey, he tries to get up on his feet while he is lying a foot away from a shelf. When it cuts to the shelf falling over him, he is lying right next to it. See more...
Trivia
The film's original title was "Helldorado." It was then changed to "Welcome to the Jungle," before being changed again to "The Rundown." It's still "Welcome to the Jungle" in Europe, possibly because "The Rundown" sounds like it refers to a car accident, whereas in the US it would be more readily associated with a bounty hunter.

in the scene where she is about to drug them with the Konlabos she gives the Rock rather odd directions to get to the airfield: "Head north until you hit the road, then follow it south until you hit the airfield." [The road doesn't necessarily go straight south. In the jungle, the easiest way to get to the road and keep your bearings is to go straight north, then follow the road whichever way is more south - southeast or southwest.]
There is no way that pilot has an Irish accent. My girlfriend is from the North and I'm from the South and that is the worst accent in history. Also, the bagpipe is a Scottish instrument, he wouldn't be playing it. [The pilot is meant to be Scottish. The actor, Ewan Bremner (spelling?) is a noted Scottish actor most famous for his role in Trainspotting and has a clear, distinct Scottish accent (which he hid for his role in Pearl Harbour).]
When Travis and Beck are falling down the hill, they jump out and the car goes in front of them. At the end of the scene, the car falls on them, but it was in front of him and shouldn't the car go faster because it weighs more? [Not really true. It was not only heavier, but also much bigger, so it would have hit a lot more trees and stuff on the way down, which would have slowed it considerably.]
In the scene at the beginning where Beck is sitting in his truck listening to the radio, the clock on the radio says 11:00 a.m., but outside it is dark as if it were night time. [Clocks can be wrong. Maybe beck doesn't bother switching it from AM to PM just because the clock still tells him the time.]
When Beck is on the plane on his way to pick up Travis, Beck looks out the plane's window and notices blue duct tape on the wing. He turns to the Irish pilot and asks him if thats duct tape. As the pilot reassures him, Beck then looks at the tape again, this time it's silver. [The tape is silver the whole time. The "blue" is actually a shadow.]
After Beck gets hit by the bean bags, he is seen holding a bag of frozen vegetables on his forehead, the only problem is that the one of the bean bags hits him over his right eye, but when he firsts puts the bag of vegetables on his head he presses the bag over his left eye. [If you slow motion the movie the bean bag hits him over his left eye. he has an abrasion over his right eye, but that could have come from the fight he had earlier.]
In the scene where the Rock has to unzip Sean's fly because he is handcuffed, you see him pee, then the rock gets stuck in a trap and his keys fall. Sean gets the keys and takes off his cuffs, but never zips his fly back up. When he gets caught in a trap too his fly is zipped. [If you listen closely, you can hear Sean zip up his fly after he undoes his cuffs.]
In the scene where they are just about to find the "Gato", Travis says "lets go for a swim". He then takes his shirt off, drops it on the ground and dives into the water. When they enter the cave he stands up and puts his shirt on again. How is this possible if he dropped it on the ground before swimming? [He ties the shirt around his waist]
