Movie Trivia/Goofs

  • Movie Goof (factual errors): After Clark requests a helicopter with which to rescue his covert ops team, Ryan locates a local aviation operation, and asks to rent "the Huey". Although the helicopter shown has the same general fuselage shape as a Bell "Huey" (military designation UH-1) it is in fact a Bell 412 (a 4-blade, twin-engine, civilian-use-only ship) which has never been used by the military. There was a 2-blade version (the Bell 212) which was derived from the military UH-1N, but this was used only by the Navy, and was not referred to as a "Huey". This nickname was only applied to the 2-blade, single-engine Army version, of Vietnam War fame..
  • Director 'Philip Noyce', when discussing the final film, admitted that he was disappointed in the climactic action sequence. He felt that it should have been bigger and more elaborate than the SUV ambush scenes in the middle of the film.
  • A huge chunk of Anne Archer's part ended up on the cutting room floor
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): During the Cortez/Cutter conversation in the Panama hotel room, Cortez says, "No more senseless violence, you'll have your victory." When Ryan plays the tape to distract Cortez, the tape has Cortez saying, "No more violence," missing out on the "senseless".
