Soldier

Revealing mistake: When Todd is hitting the metal punchbag the first time, during the slow mo part you can see it flex as if it is made of rubber.

Continuity mistake: When the green snake slithers towards the boy, Todd throws a boot at the boys feet so the boy can hit the snake with it. The boy looks at Todd who motions the boy to hit it. The next shot shows the boys feet again, but no boot.
