Visible crew/equipment: When Frank goes to Cooper's office there's a glass-top table and carpet with a striped pattern. After Cooper calls Frank "Grandpa" then kicks him, a few shots later (before Frank lifts the glass-top table) the pink T-mark taped to the striped carpet can be seen, in the underside reflection of the table's glass.

Red (2010)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Robert Schwentke
Starring: Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, Karl Urban, Mary-Louise Parker
Character mistake: In the scene where Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker, and John Malkovich are having lunch outside on a river in New Orleans, right after Mary-Louise Parker gets off the pay-phone, John Malkovich reads off the tail number of a helicopter flying over as "N9745C", even though the number is visible as "N9748C". A few minutes later, when the three are talking to James Rema in Mobile, in the airport control tower, they see the helicopter (again, visible as "N9748C"), only this time, John Malkovich correctly identifies it as "N9748C". (00:36:45 - 00:40:00)
Marvin Boggs: Frank, I never thought I'd say this again. I'm getting the pig!
Trivia: Frank Moses' file, seen when Cooper is told he is his next target, gives Frank's date of birth as March 19, 1955. This is Bruce Willis' date of birth. (00:15:00)
Question: Why is Marvin wearing a plastic sheet over his suit in the scene where he, Frank and Joe are interrogating Alexander Dunning? (01:04:15)

Chosen answer: Intimidation. The implication is that he's going to be spilling Dunning's blood during the interrogation and doesn't want to get his suit dirty.
