Other mistake: Ryan drives the stolen security car through the construction site and over muddy slopes and potholes, and the car becomes saturated with dirt and mud covering the hood, the roof, and the sides of the car, but as he exits the construction site and pulls into the phone center parking lot the camera pans around to the driver's side and his window is rolled all the way down, but somehow Ryan does not have a speck of dirt on him or his clothes.

Cellular (2004)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: David R. Ellis
Starring: Jason Statham, Chris Evans, William H. Macy, Kim Basinger, Jessica Biel, Caroline Aaron, Brenda Ballard, Will Beinbrink
The kidnappers are after the Martins because Jessica's husband witnessed the corrupt cops killing criminals and recorded the incident on his video camera. Ryan gets the camera and calls up the kidnappers. He offers to trade the tape for the Martins. The kidnappers smash the tape and Ryan escapes. Using his cell phone, Ryan manages to lead Mooney to the head kidnapper, who is gunned down by Mooney. The Martins are being held in a van by one of the kidnappers, but Ryan bashes his head in with the car door. Tanner also gets busted when Ryan reveals that he copied the tape onto his phone and shows it to the cops. Jessica asks Ryan if there's any way she can repay him, and Ryan asks her never to call him again.

Ryan: Ricky Martin? You named your kid Ricky Martin?
Trivia: The movie the kidnappers are watching is "Final Destination 2" (2003), which was directed by David R. Ellis. Also there is an announcement at the aiport for "Volé Flight 180 to Paris," a reference to the original "Final Destination" (2000). Both are New Line productions.
Question: How does Ryan copy the video from the camera on to his phone?
Answer: Even if he'd been able to copy the video onto his phone, we see him running through water under the pier. There would've been water damage to the phone, rendering it useless.

Chosen answer: His Nokia phone has a video recorder on it. He simply records the display on the camcorder with his phone.

But the video on his phone was too clear, not like he recorded the video on the camera but like he downloaded directed to the phone.
