Goofs

As Ray is hanging from a rope ladder, in close up, one of the ropes is torn by a bullet. In the following wide shot, the ladder is fixed.

When the doctor is stitching up Breslan's leg, there are xrays of the lumbar spine hanging in the view box. The lateral view is hung upside down.

When Javed is left with two pistols during the escape, one of them is clearly out of ammunition as the breach stays open, yet without reloading them he keeps firing from both pistols.

Javed uses a sextant from an enclosure that is open to the sky but has walls on all four sides. Using a sextant is contingent on being able to see not just the sky but also the horizon which Javed can not do from his position, therefore this would not have worked.

When Breslin is picked off the streets in New Orleans a black van is shown driving up a street that would 1st be blocked off from vehicular traffic and then speeding off. Both of which would be next to impossible to do in the French Quarters.

Javed is supposedly Moroccan, yet he speaks fluent Urdu (Pakistani) when he says, "Ye Jahannum kay darwazay hain," (These are the gates of Hell) during a scene with Breslin.

There is no reason that a Moroccan person can't memorize an Urdu phrase.

Just minutes into the picture, Breslin finishes a phone call: he hangs up, and is just exiting the booth when we hear the distinct sound of a coin hitting the coin return slot and NOT falling into the phone company coin bin, as it would if the person had made a successful outgoing call.

To locate their position, they are pointing the sextant to the polar star. When they got the partial result "latitude: 30 degrees", they are still wondering if it is the northern or the southern hemisphere. However, since you cannot see the polar star from the southern hemisphere, it is quite obvious on which hemisphere they are.

When Rottmayer first meets Breslin, Breslin introduces himself as his cover name, Anthony Portos. Rottmayer says, "The fourth Musketeer." Porthos (different spelling) was actually one of the 3 Musketeers in Alexandre Dumas' famous novel. D'Artagnan was the 4th musketeer.

Urban legend presented as fact: Breslin deduces which hemisphere they're in based on which direction the drains flow. This effect, known as Coriolis force, is quoted by Breslin as causing moving objects on the surface of the Earth to be deflected in a counter-clockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere and in a clockwise rotation in the Southern Hemisphere. It is not effective on water drainage, so it cannot be used to scientifically and surely determine in which hemisphere one is.

Coriolis effect or no, he had the same chance of getting it right as if he had just guessed.

When the doctor tells the guards to bring him Porto he's says he's in cell block "E" but Breslin (Portos), is clearly wearing his shirts with cell Block "A" printed on the back.
