The Transporter Refueled

Factual error: At the beginning, the film is set in 1995 only for a brief few minutes. Then, it goes on to say "15 years later." This brings us to 2010. In 2010, the latest iPhone was the 4. However, throughout this film, nearly every iPhone shown (quite a few) appears to be an iPhone 5s. This is obvious by the rectangular body with fingerprint sensor. In addition, in some places the latest iPads are used, the iPad Air 2 and the iPad mini 3 - These were released in 2013 and beyond. Finally, although I am not 100% sure, towards the end of the film as the woman steps in to the car for the final time on the hill next to the boat, it appears she is wearing a gold Apple Watch or other smart-watch which was released later than 2010.

More quotes from The Transporter Refueled

Trivia: Originally, Jason Statham was interested in reprising his role as Frank Martin, when the film was intended to serve as the start of a prequel trilogy explaining how he became a "transporter." He opted out when the production requested he sign on for a three-film contract in which he would earn less money combined for all three films than he was then making for a single film on any other production. He was also expected to sign on to all three films without even seeing a script for the first installment. He opted out, concerned about the production quality given these strange circumstances, and the film was ultimately retooled from being a prequel to being a quasi-reboot in order to explain the change in Frank Martin's appearance.
