Factual error: The brothers had a two-way mirror installed in the fitting room. Todd makes faces at his brother through the glass. If the mirror had really been two-way, the woman would have seen the reflection of Todd making the faces and would have known something was up. (00:19:28)

Where's Officer Tuba? picture Where's Officer Tuba? mistake picture

Revealing mistake: The chairman parks his car in front of Bel Fuse Ltd. And goes upstairs. His car explodes, but does it in front of a different building, probably switching to a stage building front; the metal doors don't have vents anymore and there are visible join lines in the asphalt and the cement. (00:15:10 - 00:15:40)

Millionaires' Express picture

Visible crew/equipment: In the opening sequence, Sammo Kam-Bo Hung is scavenging the dead soldiers (with one hilarious twist) - however, when he is holding the ring, in his sunglasses you can see several very much alive crewmembers standing. (00:02:45)

Legal Eagles picture

Plot hole: Chelsea says that when her deceased father gave her one of his paintings (now missing), he wrote an inscription to her on the back. She says she cannot prove that he actually did this other than he noted it in his journal and she does not know where the journal is. However, when Chelsea's father presented the painting to her on her 8th birthday, there were at least 100 adults present at her party who witnessed him giving her the painting, writing the inscription, and signing his name on the back of the canvas which was displayed to the guests. Any number of these people could be contacted and corroborate her claim.
