Other: When Arnold throws The Wolf's wife into the electrical gate equipment and she is killed, they begin to fight. The Wolf beats Arnold repeatedly then takes out his Motorola cell phone to place a call to set off another bomb. When he pulls the phone from his pocket there is no signal (indicated by red light on phone). A few minutes later Arnold leans over, picks up the phone, and sees that all The Wolf had to do was press the phone button to send the call. So, do you suppose he saw that there were no signal bars on the display, like we did?

Mistakes
After the terrorists on the motorcycle take off, Gordon uses a fire axe to puncture the natural gas line. The natural gas (which was under pressure) would have quickly filled the tunnel. Now when the motorbike drives through it, the engine should have revved high with a combustible gas being taken in in place of oxygen. It would be like using nitrous on a hot rod. But you can hear the RPM's stay normal for a motorcycle. See more...

Collateral Damage mistakes
Other: The fireball that consumes the corridor with Selina and Wolf was incredibly sizeable, sizeable enough that it destroys the motorbike, but Selina's long hair doesn't even get singed.
Continuity: During the film's climax, in which the Wolf's wife Serena is on the run, CIA agent Peter Brandt tries to ambush her in an elevator. As he runs up to the elevator, we get a wide shot of him, the people waiting for the elevator, and the up/down indicator lights of the elevator. The down indicator is lit. (The shot pans down from the indicator lights as he runs up.) Cut to Elias briefly, then back to the elevator indicators. This time, neither light is on.
Collateral Damage trivia
In the scene after the Policia Nacional capture Brewer, a police vehicle goes by, the man in the back on the left has his face digitized out.
The film was supposed to be released in September 2001, but because of the September 11 terrorist attacks, its release was postponed until early 2002.
Notice that John Leguizamo said that Arnold was working like a cyborg. Of course, he was a cyborg in the Terminator series.
