Revealing mistake: As Will and Ben are wrestling for the gun, it goes off, shooting Ben in the chest. When you hear the shot you can see the gun is lying on Ben's chest with him holding it, and it's pointed pretty much at an exact 90° to his side. It would have barely grazed him at best and would have left a long scratch/cut at that angle. Yet as they get up the shot is perfectly centered on his chest and round as if it was a direct shot.

Plot hole: The entire plot hinges on the villain's gang obtaining the tablet that allows admin access to the building's systems. However, it can only be unlocked via facial recognition and it is keyed only to Will Sawyer's face. In fact, when they finally do get it, Xia unlocks it by holding it up to Sawyer's face. So what was the point of trying to steal the backpack containing the tablet? Without Will to unlock it, the tablet is useless.
Will Sawyer: There's one thing you should know first... I'm behind you. (01:25:00)
