Continuity mistake: There is a lot of moving from one place to another during the last 10 minutes (supposed to be actual 10 minutes of the timeline), which seems pretty much impossible - from Jack's apartment to the girl's apartment, then to the office on campus, then to another building, up to floor 7, and they still have time to talk for a couple of minutes. Note that the glass doors to the elevators are locked, so he has to take the stairs, which are also behind a glass door that happens to be open. And how did he get through the police block on campus? There was a bomb threat just about an hour and half before - there is no way he would be allowed in there. Notice that the campus streets are empty so he can run without problems from his office to the other building.

Continuity mistake: After Jack receives his first phone call whilst giving his lecture, he places his mobile phone screen down, then when it rings again it is facing up with the screen visible.

Continuity mistake: After they almost get run over by the man on the motorcycle, Jack receives a phone call. He answers with his left hand on his left ear, then it cuts and it's in his right hand and his right ear. It switches back in the next cut.
