Other mistake: When the Navy SEAL snipers start shooting at the ethnic cleansers, there are two snipers, the sniper that shoots second (he has an M-14) hits a Nigerian soldier in the back, they then go back to the sniper in the tree who tells Dr Kendrick to be quiet by. They then go back to the second sniper and he shoots again they show the same shot of the Nigerian getting hit in the back but from a different angle.

1 other mistake
Directed by: Antoine Fuqua

Kelly Lake: The first name of the character of Johnny Messner, Kelly, means 'warrior' in Gaelic.
Trivia: "Tears of the Sun" was originally going to be the subtitle of Die Hard 4.0. Bruce Willis told the film company he would commit to DH4 if he could use the subtitle for this film.
