Other mistake: While flying home from overseas, Kate is wearing earrings while she is wearing the Army Combat Uniform (ACU). At the time the movie took place, female soldiers were not authorized to wear earrings while wearing combat uniforms. I could dismiss this as a character mistake if Kate was a private fresh out of basic (I once corrected a real female soldier who just finished basic that was wearing earrings), but Julia Roberts is portraying a captain in the movie and a captain would have known better.

Character mistake: After Reed proposes to his girlfriend, he calls Julia and leaves an excited voicemail telling her he has huge news. When Julia listens to what is supposed to be the same voicemail, the wording and tone are completely different, leading Julia to think something was wrong, such as his girlfriend declining the proposal.
Reed Bennett: When I was a kid, most of the advice that my dad gave me was crap. But there's one thing that he said that was pure genius... He said, if you're ever with a girl that's too good for you, marry her.
