Revealing mistake: In the commentary, the director states that the crowds in Tangiers were real, not hired extras, and that therefore there was an effort to avoid having them look at the camera. However, when you can see the crowd walking up a street, their backs toward the camera, while one man (to the right) faces the camera while holding his cell phone up. He is obviously taking pictures of the camera crew, probably unaware of the fact that he is being filmed, as it seems the shot is filmed from afar. (01:01:50)

Continuity mistake: When Landy is looking at Jason's file it says his blood type is A+. When Jason looks at his old dog tags it says his blood type is O-.
