Red Planet

Revealing mistake: Right at the beginning of the film when the crew walk down the tunnel from the shuttle to the space station, one on the left of screen bumps into the massive metal airlock door. It wobbles.

Revealing mistake: When they land on Mars, pay attention to the 3 vents in the front of their helmets - at certain angles you can see there's no screens or obstructions - just 3 holes straight through and you can see their skin.

Continuity mistake: In every view of the front of Mars 1, you can clearly see the landing pod still attached, even when it's on Mars' surface.

Question: In the movie, AMEE is shown to have various settings, such as 'Navigaton' and 'Military'. It is also stated that AMEE is on loan from the marines.
