Quantum of Solace

Revealing mistake: In the rooftop chase between Bond and Mitchell, it is obvious that both characters are wearing black running shoes, when in the previous scene, both wore smart black suit shoes.

Revealing mistake: Bond hands a business card to a guy, then sits on his bike and, right before he grabs his cellphone, there's a man behind him who's supposed to be sweeping the street, but the broom isn't even touching the floor, he's just mimicking or horsing around.

Sacha

Revealing mistake: During the opening car chase the police shoot at the bad guy's car and the back window shatters, we then see a close up from the outside of the back window of the bad guy turning around and then returning fire, shooting out the back window. The back window is not shattered but does have bullet holes in it, this is so we can see the men inside the car returning fire.

Revealing mistake: At the end of the opening car chase Bond approaches the safe house. Just before the gates open white tyre marks are visible from previous takes, the white being chalk from the quarry.

Continuity mistake: After Bond throws Mathis into the dustbin, the position of Mathis's arm changes. In one shot, it lies in the dustbin; in the next shot, it lies on the edge of the dustbin. (01:04:05)

Question: Saw the film once in the movies and now on DVD. Still can't figure this out. Bond follows Camille to the dock and watches from a distance as Dominic talks to General Medrano about using Camille, then killing her. Then Camille (not knowing her fate, only knowing that she wants to kill the General) leaves on a boat with Medrano. As the boat leaves, Bond suddenly realizes that he must get Camille away from the General and goes through a series of very dangerous moves on the water to kidnap her away from him. The question: why? Bond could not possibly have heard Dominic's remarks about killing her. Bond's sudden decision to steal Camille away from the General makes no sense.

Chosen answer: Remember just before that scene? Bond gets in to the car with Camille (Camille thinks that Bond is Slate) and looks through that attache case and finds a picture of Camille, with a gun, and tells her "I think someone wants you dead". So Bond and Camille both knew that Dominic was planning her death, but she had to go through Dominic to get to General Medrano.
