Factual error: When Gabriel turns off the lights in the tunnel, we see a shot of cars heading towards the police car as the lights turn off, and not one of them turns its headlights on. In reality, with that many cars in the tunnel, there'd be at least one that was fitted with auto-lights.

Factual error: This is supposed to be an F-35B, the STOVL version with the additional lift jet. The B model has no internal guns, let alone two firing from the bottom of the air intakes. The only gun it can carry is fitted in a multi-mission pack attached to the belly. (01:54:25)

Factual error: Throughout the movie, they depict the evil computer genius being able to manipulate (virtually any) distant objects, like video webcams and doorknobs, from his keyboard - just through sheer computer-genius awesomeness. When, to actually do these things, everything would have to be pre-rigged with servo motors and controllers, and be somehow connected on the web.

Question: When the FBI take McClane and Farrell and the voice of Maggie Q is recognised by Matt - how does she know McClane is with Matt? She says to get her a line to the FBI driver and get me all the info on John McClane. At which point did they even know John McClane's name or who he was?

Answer: The radio line mentioned the officer's name in the seconds after Gabriel's voice recognition picked up Farrell's name.

Answer: They would have called ahead to DHS to advise them that a NYPD office of SO SO name would be coming to hoover building escorting Mr Feral. I would only assume when they said his name and Matt's name over the police band it triggered a hit for Matt's name, and then they listened to it, causing them to know who is riding in the LEO car. Hypothetically of course.

Answer: They sent 5 guys to kill Matt Farrell. 2 survived and stated there was a guy with Farrell as the reason they didn't kill him. I always figured, up until that point, that they had checked to see who was dispatched to Farrell's address before they got to him.
