The Tourist

Revealing mistake: Despite receiving several shots and crashing against other boats, Elise's wooden boat structure remains undamaged.

Sacha

Revealing mistake: After the Italian cop tells the British one that Frank is going to be killed, Frank climbs a rooftop and white protective tapes are visible on the sole of his feet.

Sacha

Revealing mistake: The scene where Frank is chased across the roof tops is shot indoors. First, the light and shadows are very bright - but in the outdoors scenes it is cloudy, and there are no clear shadows. Second, the shadows show almost horizontal lighting - a position the sun does not have in Venice in late morning.

Factual error: Frank and Elise approaching to Venice by train. Train announcement says "Arrival at train station Santa Lucia in ten minutes". Landscape from the train window is green and hilly. I'm from Venice and no way you find such landscape 10 minutes from Venice Santa Lucia. Most probably you would see a gray Mestre, Venice inland city, or a completely flat and not green land (for at least 30 minutes from/to the train station of Venice). (00:19:30)
