When it lands, the paint is flat blue, no reflection. This is perhaps because of the angle of the shot. We would have seen the camera crew easy if it had still been reflective. 125042 In the shot where Nick Memphis is being abducted by FBI agents in the van he drops his cell phone on the sidewalk in front of the drainage grating on the road. The phone is at least a foot inward on the sidewalk. When the camera zooms in on the phone it is lying on the very edge of the curb. 124446 In the very beginning of the film when Swagger takes out the enemy's truck approaching friendly troops, the truck flips over onto its side and two pieces of the truck spill out onto the road, yet when the friendly troops approach/pass it the objects are nowhere to be seen. 127244 In the beginning where Bob and Donny are watching over the road waiting for the returning troops, the bolt of the M40 rifle Bob has at the ready is closed. In the shot right after Donny pulls out the picture of Sara, the bolt is shown open, but appears not to be fully open. In the next shot of the rifle, the bolt is again closed. We do not hear the bolt, nor would a sniper at the ready fumble with an arm at the ready. 137673 As Swagger walks out of the airplane hanger, a huge American flag is displayed hanging on the wall. It has the stars displayed on the right, but it should be on the left. Every military person knows that.
