When Curtis is watching the house on the beach, smoke falls out the barrel of his MP5 submachine gun before he fires a shot.

Throughout the film, Laura Newton (Kristen Bell) uses this sign "%-)" to indicate her scrambled mind, like Picasso's. She draws it in several places.

But when Scott (Val Kilmer) and Curtis (Derek Luke) return to the beach house where they had tracked her earlier, where Curtis insists he "saw the sign", after Grace (Johnny Messner) kills Curtis from the boat and Scott tosses the dummy to throw the sniper off his track, he waits a time while the boat moves on. At 1:02:47 when Scott stands up, the sign is shown drawn in the dust on the window.

In this case, though, the sign isn't "%-)", it's "%)", missing the n-dash for the nose. Someone who was accustomed to using this sign like a personal sigil would not likely sign it with missing characters.

When Jackie shows the head of Interpol a police sketch, it is of a man in a hat. When the commander holds up the sketch it is of a bare-headed man. The two sketches alternate during the scene.

Starting at 38:15 into the movie, when Scott shoots the officer escorting the prisoners, you can see a car in the background heading towards the scene. In the next scene, when Scott stands in the middle of the road looking for cars, the car is not present.

When Scott tosses the straw dummy to throw off the Sniper in the boat it lands with brown shoes on - when the scene cuts to him sitting behind the boat house he has on brown shoes and the dummy has on black ones.

The scope on Curtis's gun is an Aimpoint Comp M series. It does not magnify the image as the movie indicates, nor does it have cross-hairs. Instead, it projects a red dot in the scope showing where the bullet will hit.

The gun used by Curtis to give Scott sniper cover at the seaside cabin is a Heckler & Koch MP-5. A submachine-gun meant for close-quarter combat. It is neither designed for, nor is ever used as, a sniper rifle. Its ammunition wouldn't even fly straight if shot through a window.

Misspelling: The Swedish airplane and the journalist's bag says "Sveriges Nyhetbyrå" In Swedish it is spelled "Nyhetsbyrå".

The shipping container that is supposed to take Laura Newton back to the US is a type used only for land and sea freight. Because of its weight, it would never be used for air transport.

The "scarecrow" that Scott throws from behind the shed to divert the sniper fire is clearly a human stunt double.

After shooting the other convict, Scott deliberately pumps the shotgun twice so it's empty when he pulls the trigger on Asani. He then reloads it and pumps the action, but there's no sound; in the next shot he pumps it off-screen, this time with audio.

At The Clearings, the rehab clinic where. the First Lady was being escorted, the scene begins with a group in the lobby being given the tour to set the seen.

There would be no customary tour of a facility where a Secret Service protectee was being held. All such activities would have been deemed security vulnerabilities and put on hold as long as the protectee was in residence or visiting.

Fellow operator Grace (Johnny Messner) bugs Scott's (Val Kilmer) phone and knife with tracking discs, but while the tracking disc that Scott finds in his cell phone would have been able to broadcast a location over cell towers using the phone's battery, the same kind of disc, which he later found hidden in his folding knife, would not have been able to transmit his location to the receiver without being connected to any kind of power source.
