Continuity mistake: Neither Abra, Betty or her kids age a single bit in a time span of 20 years.
Continuity mistake: At the end, When Killer has the gun to Driver's head, in some shots it's touching his head, in others it's not. (01:25:00)
Continuity mistake: When Lucky makes her husband some dinner, she puts it down in front of her husband - and only that. In the next shot when she backs away after putting the plate down, there is a small pot of flowers there that weren't in her hands in the previous shot.
Continuity mistake: When Ree visits a girl holding a baby, when she's about to leave the baby's hat swaps from off to on between shots.
Continuity mistake: After Dave stabs Ravi, the shot cuts to Kurtis running through the woods trying to escape. Ravi (in the clown costume) is seen among the ones pursuing him, but he's either dead or dying at this point, and, obviously, cannot chase someone while riding an ATV. It's a recycled shot from when Tommy was attempting to escape.
Suggested correction: It isn't Ravi on the ATV. Towards the beginning you see Dane on the stairs talking to 3 students, a little later on in the cafeteria you see the same 3 students sitting at a table and the shots keep switching between them and Dane and his friends, and Dane says something like "and they will be in the woods dressed in the same outfits/costumes as us." It's meant to confuse the cops when they show up.
Continuity mistake: 25 mins into the film, Helen's thick black shoe heels have changed to stiletto heels. Her shoes change back at 37 mins. I noticed this several times throughout the film.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the team is in the process of clearing the sniper, Miller says, "When the 203 goes, we're going to go all the way down to the left side." The team member with the 203 (the grenade attachment for the m16) never shoots, only the 240B (the full assault rifle). (00:06:00)
Continuity mistake: In the first scene with Lucas in the race car, a curly also wants to get in it, but he is smashed to the ground by the driver who puts a brake. First we saw a lot of blood dropped from his head (on the starting grid), and in the next scene, shot with another camera, the blood disappears.
Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, when Ray makes a call to channel one news, he is seen to press the dial button, but when he looks to see a fleet of super hybrids, his phone is displaying a picture rather than placing a call.
Continuity mistake: During the last scene, the strands of hair that Edgar has running down his face/right cheek are over the top of his head during some shots. Edgar is holding a book between both hands, so not moving the strands himself. (01:16:19 - 01:16:55)
Continuity mistake: The silver SUV in which John, Laura and their son are escaping, changes several times from one to two inspection decals on its windshield. Firstly there are two decals reading 9_10. Right after Laura tries to step out of the running car and they almost collide with a truck, the SUV comes to a full stop and there is a single decal reading 5_10. When they are at the checkpoint leaving Pennsylvania we go again to two decals. Additionally, when two decals are present, they sometimes read 9_10 and some other times 11_10. (01:38:00 - 01:43:20)
Continuity mistake: During the "bedroom scene", Dana suddenly had wrist chains on for a short period of time. Before this, a chain could be seen dangling along the wall near the bed, but the chain was never seen going onto the bed. The same is true for the chain attached on the other side of the bed. (00:02:50)
Continuity mistake: The fan on the duty desk stops and starts randomly between camera shots. (00:54:10)
Continuity mistake: When one of the robbers is walking away with 4 bags stuffed with money, you can see a large stack of money bills sticking out of the bag. In the next shot the bills are gone. (01:04:40)
Continuity mistake: Near the end, the orderly restrains Kristen and the doctor says not to drug them. The doctor is holding Kristen by the arms. However in the close up of her getting the injection her arms are free, only to be restrained again in the next shot.
Continuity mistake: Throughout the motorcycle/police car chase they used two different motorcycles made 50+ years apart and just painted them both black. One is a 1940s Harley Davidson with a springer front end and the very recognizable horn below the headlight, and the other is a late 1990s (at the oldest) cruiser with a front end that's completely different in every way.
Continuity mistake: When the hijacked DC9 aircraft arrives into Algeria for the first time, in a front shot when taxiing, the nose and windshield are of a Boeing 727. Afterwards it becomes a DC9 for the remaining of the movie.
Continuity mistake: During his second interview with Jack, Stone tilts his body to the right in the front shots, but remains straight in the back shots.
Continuity mistake: After the shootout at Sarah's birthday party, White Mike is visited at the hospital by Molly. Mike's pillow has marking "Property of Queens Hospital", they cut to Molly, then back to Mike, and the marking is gone. Regardless, they were in Manhattan, they would not have taken him to Queens Hospital anyway.
Continuity mistake: In the classroom, Jarod leaves with Detective Fairchild's business card in his right hand and accidentally (maybe deliberately) left the "Death and Cremation" book on the floor. Courtney picks up Jarod's book, apparently with the intent to give it to him the next time she saw him. Later, Courtney is reading the book and finds Detective Fairchild's business card between pages (like a bookmark). If this was meant to be the one the detective gave to Jarod, it can't be. (00:50:41 - 01:01:05)
