Rambo

Visible crew/equipment: When the mercenaries are able to fight back after Rambo's intervention on the mounted .50 cal, the Merc with the bandana on his head climbs up some wooden steps to get a better firing position. Just as he takes up his firing position, you can see directly behind him a video camera with blue tape on it pointing over his shoulder, which is then reflected in the next shot over his shoulder.

Visible crew/equipment: When Rambo is attempting to lead the soldiers away on a fake trail, and just before he sets the claymore trap on the Tallboy bomb, there is a shot of Rambo running from the left side of the screen to the right, and just before the camera stops panning right, in the bottom right corner of the screen you can see crew equipment.

Continuity mistake: In the grand finale shootout scene, the flak guards on the truck-mounted machine gun Rambo uses are immediately covered in blood and gore from the soldiers he shoots in the truck. There is at least one shot in the midst of the massacre where the panels are squeaky clean, then re-appear blood-soiled again in the subsequent shots.

Trivia: The movie was originally titled "John Rambo", but Stallone didn't want people to think it was the last of the series (as the final "Rocky" was called "Rocky Balboa"), so he changed the name, keeping the door open for a fifth movie.
