Revealing mistake: During the car chase with the railway train wheels, when some of the cars get destroyed and flipped, you can see flame and smoke from the bottoms of the flipped cars where the cannons fired to flip them.
Revealing mistake: During the truck chase and the train wheels being offloaded into the path of the pursuing cars, on the car that gets hit after the hummer we can see the metal canister used to roll the car.
Deliberate mistake: Gandu Three Echo, the clone who hits the screen showing the first lottery winner in the movie, complains that he has been around for 7 years and never won the lottery. However, McCord explains later in the movie that the last name tells how old the clones are. Lincoln Six Echo is 3 years old because he is in the Echo generation, and the Delta generation (Jordan Two Delta) is 4 years old. Going backwards, this would make Charlies 5 years old, Bravos 6 years old, and Alphas 7 years old. Gandu Three Echo should have really been Gandu Three Alpha. (00:05:55)
Tom Lincoln: Yes, can you please explain to me why my insurance policy is sitting downstairs on my fucking sofa?!
Trivia: Tom Lincoln, Lincoln Six Echo's sponsor, likes custom sport motorcycles and is from Scotland. These character traits were taken from Ewan McGregor himself.
Question: What happens to all the clones at the end? Do they live? Do the sponsors get their money back? Does the government kill them all?
Answer: We saw them set free, so assume beyond that what you will. If we apply current reality to it, we can guess the sponsors lost their money, as the venture was entirely illegal to start with. The government would gain nothing killing them, so they likely would issue new Social Security numbers to them and start collecting taxes ASAP. If you must have a definitive answer to 'what happened next', you can always wait for a sequel.
