Earthquake mistakes
Revealing: When the airplane is coming in for a landing, we see an exterior shot of the plane shaking violently well before it has touched down. Clearly the "earthquake" effect is achieved by merely shaking the camera.
Factual error: During the aftermath, at a scene at the hospital, we hear someone trying to get blood donors saying they are in desperate need of blood type AB-. But people with blood type AB are considered "universal recipients" because they can receive any type of blood. Therefore, type AB blood would be the LAST type that the hospital would be desperate for. Sure, under ideal situations, it is best for people with type AB blood to get the same AB blood, but for an emergency situation, it would be fine.
