Factual errors: While running through Freetown, Danny and Simon are being fired at by AK-47s, M2s and a host of other weapons. The bullets are seen ricocheting off the cars. 7.62mm and .50 cal bullets would be punching holes in the thin metal of cars and shattering glass.

Continuity: When Archer, Maddy and Solomon get onto the reporters bus we see Solomon sit down in an aisle seat next to a man who he says he is the camera man too. In the next shot Solomon is in a completely different seat next to the window.

Factual errors: Towards the end of the movie, after Solomon negotiates with Simmons about the price of the diamond, Solomon exits the car. The car leaves but only stops after a few meters.

The most obvious one is at the end of the movie when the diamond is placed at the Van de Kaap Vault, the size changes in the two scenes
