• Continuity: When Robert Grace is meeting alone with Gideon Young, he has his glasses on at the start of the conversation.

• Errors in geography: As the FBI team's airplane is touching down, the caption at the bottom of the screen informs the viewer that the location is in Saudi Arabia. However, as the plane is just about to land, a bridge is visible in the distance. This bridge is in fact the Woodrow Wilson bridge seen from National Airport in D.C. The scene was shot during the construction of the new bridge. Both the old and new bridges can be seen.
