Character mistake: When Flynn opens the secret compartment in the Buddah, he pushes the signs for 'me' and 'e' to spell 'me'. But that is hardly how 'me' is spelled in that ancient language.

Factual error: In the beginning the professor says that they have now built a 1:20 scale copy of the great pyramid including capstone. In the final fight, the pyramid contains a huge room inside - in the full height of the pyramid. But the Egyptian pyramids are (almost) solid.

Character mistake: When Flynn is in the treetop in the jungle he says their position is minus X degrees latituded and minus Y degrees longitude. Positions are not indicated with minus - but North or South (of the Equator), and East or West (of Greenwich).

Plot hole: The plot that a piece of the Roman spear that pierced Christ ends up in a hidden Mayan temple in the Amazon (which is nevertheless still full of gold etc.) makes no sense.

Jacob La Cour

Other mistake: When in the Mayan temple Flynn pools out the book. It is completely intact and the pages are flat and even. A book which has been under water for a long time (during their swim) would not look like that.

Continuity mistake: When Flynn and Nicole jump from the airplane it is just before sunrise. But when they land in the jungle, the sun is high in the sky (which you can tell by the shadows).

Jacob La Cour

Character mistake: Flynn has been reading for a while, taking notes, spreading books around, etc. - when Nicole arrives and says that it was nice to watch take-off from the cockpit. The plane must have been in the air for a long time by then.

Jacob La Cour

Continuity mistake: Flynn was juggling with two golden eggs when the sword flew out of the rock. But after the sword came, they weren't seen again.

Continuity mistake: Flynn's hair changes dramatically from when Deborah arrives and when they sit down on the couch.

Jacob La Cour

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, the capstone to the pyramid is lowered onto the two ropes holding it. In a clip a few minutes later, the ropes are gone.
