World War Z

Deliberate mistake: After the AN-12 launches from the carrier, you see U.S. Navy near the nose of the craft, and MG on the tail code (MG=McGuire Air Force Base). Also, during the flight shots, the plane transforms between a C-130 and AN-12 multiple times.

Continuity mistake: Just before the garbage truck mows down the policeman and continues through traffic, we see behind the cop a street full of stopped cars, and a building less than 100 yards away (the street starts at a T-intersection). There is no truck, and no way for it to have gotten onto the street at the speed it's going. (00:07:05)
