Mistakes

Right before the final battle, Leo hits Mei with a dagger to the chest. During the ensuing conversation she frequently goes from having a bloody mouth with red teeth, to having a clean mouth with no signs of blood on her teeth. See more...

Trivia

The mysterious new leader of the flying daggers never actually appears because that role was intended for actress/ singer Anita Mui, who resigned the (impending) filming due to ill health two weeks before dying of cancer. Out of respect Zhang Yimou didn't replace her with another actress and the film is dedicated to her memory. See more...

Mei drops her knives and Jin runs off to find them. The soldiers attack and Jin reappears with a bow that neither he or anyone else had been carrying with them, and shoots the soldiers down. [Leo said that he was always following them and seeing as Jin somehow always knows where to meet him, during the battle, Leo could've have gone to Jin (or vice-versa) and supplied him with a bow.]
Edit
During the final fight between Jin and Leo, the snow covering their bodies often disappears/reappears between shots. [This simply could have happened because of wind, blowing snow off of them and back on. It mentions this on the audio-commentary.]
Edit
When Jin orders the first dance, many musicians turn up for one performance by one girl. Does the brothel keeps a full orchestra ready for every girl whenever she is going to dance? Do other girls wait for the orchestra, or do they have their own musicians on stand-by? This performance should not be confused with the prepared "Echo game". [The musicians that turn up for the first dance are all show girls from the brothel who have some musical training. Brothels were entertainment houses, so girls had to be able to dance and play music, as well as the obvious talents needed.]
