(at around 50 mins) The nude figure climbing out of the river is not Megan Dodds. A body double was used.

Goofs

Everyone's (especially the bad guys) clothes stay clean and neat even after spending the night in the wet forest without shelter, helicopter crash, etc. Frank's suit seems to stay pressed no matter what.

(at around 1h 23 mins) When the shootings occur in the woods at the funeral, a silenced rifle is used. However, the shootings occur close enough to the funeral that you can clearly hear the service, so the funeral attendees should be able to clearly hear even a silenced gunshot (silencers don't work like the movies depict, the shot is still identifiable as a shot, just not as loud: it's not a soft pop, especially not with a rifle).

Share this

(at around 9 mins) When the younger Hammond is killed by being pushed in front of the speeding SUV, a careful look reveals him "falling" in front of Cordell, not directly in front of the SUV, so that the SUV would actually miss his body.
