Zero Dark Thirty

Factual error: When the agent searches for Abu Ahmed in Peshawar, Pakistan, in one scene he gets out of his car, and a shop named Bhatia sons appear in the background, a company based in Delhi, India. In the next scene he is walking down a market, where a sign board of Jaggi sweets, (existing in Punjab, India) is seen, with words written in Hindi (only to be found in India).

Continuity mistake: Holding Ammar down, Dan tells Maya to grab the bucket. Her being uneasy about the whole situation, she begins walking towards it, but is nervously fidgeting with her shirt like she's trying to button it up. Then the shot changes angles and suddenly her arms are crossed and still. (00:07:45)
