Just after the opening credit during the ABN telecast, Aladeen is shown to have been born with a beard and is depicted to have the same in later life also in the movie. However, during the same telecast in his childhood (pre-teens) he is shown without a beard, first in the scene where his father is being entertained by jokers and next in the still photo of him holding a cigar in right hand and a AK-series rifle in left hand (just before the Larry King segment).
When Aladeen accidentally shoots his guard, the slide on his gun is clearly shown locked back, indicating it is empty. Moments later, he shoots the gun again.
When Admiral General Aladeen uses the zip-line, he initially can be seen with two hands on the handles. In the next shot, he is hanging onto the wire with no explanation how he changed positions.
During the Gotham Helicopter tours scene, the view from the windows show that the helicopter flies over the same river about 3 times randomly between shots.
When Aladeen is standing on the bridge, there is a safety rail in the close shots. When the camera switches to wide angle shots, there is no rail present.
The cheering crowd during Aladeen's speech at the beginning of the movie is waving national flags of Cambodia.
At 09:40 (After leaving the nuclear research campsite), A Waving Spanish Flag can be found on the top of the palace instead of Wadiyan Flag.
The photos of Aladeen and his past exploits aren't all unique. Some of the photos on the wall are mirrored copies, while most are just duplicates scattered around.
When Aladeen and Nadal are preparing to go on the helicopter tour, Nadal can be seen giving a "thumbs up" to someone off screen.
During the beginning of the Gotham Helicopters scene, a helicopter lands on the pad and the blades are slowing down but in the next shot of Aladeen the rear stabilizer blade of the helicopter is static but you can hear the sound effects of the helicopter shutting down.
When the camera zooms in on the location of Wadiya on a world map, the actual country of Eritrea is shown.
Zoey tells Aladeen that she went to Amherst (College), but she mispronounces it. The "h" is silent.
