May accepts a glass of champagne from Tomas, despite holding one a moment earlier.
When the delivery boy drops off a bag of groceries for Ray Quick, he opens the door, which is at the corner of the building, and picks up the bag. When he goes back inside and closes the door, there is a wall and window next to the door, not the building corner.
The window in the hotel was broken by the henchman flying through it. But when the room falls into the water the glass is fine.
The blood on May Munro's lower lip disappears and reappears during a confrontation with Ned Trent.
Ray Quick puts explosives in the crack of the window, in the hotel. But when the bombs go off there is no explosion from the explosive in the window.
In the 1984 prologue, Ray and Ned are on a CIA mission in Colombia and are wearing military fatigues. As noted in the Tom Clancy novel Clear and Present Danger, which was set in Colombia during the 1980s, fatigues are not commonly worn by legitimate military personnel in Colombia and would not be used by covert operatives there. The proper "blending in" outfit in this situation would be some kind of khaki gear.
The first time Ray calls May, he looks at her message on his computer with her phone number. The number he dials is not the same one that is on his computer screen. He also doesn't put any money into the payphone.
When Ned's team first walks into the hotel room, the standard Ma Bell message "Your call cannot be completed as dialed. Please check the number..." can be heard from the off-hook phone. A few seconds later, it changes to the more logical "If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and...." In either case, however, the Ma Bell messages would not be heard through a phone connected to a hotel switchboard.
When Ray calls Ned at the police station, he times the call so that he wouldn't be 'traced' and clears it after precisely 58 seconds. The call would have been via digital exchange and the number would have been displayed instantly as it is a feature provided for billing purposes. Previous electro mechanical (strowger) exchanges required time for the call to be manually traced through selector banks and distribution frames, often through several different buildings miles apart and always referring to wiring records. The time taken varied enormously and depended upon the skill and knowledge of the engineers. Strowger exchanges are now obsolete and would have been highly unlikely to be operating in the area of Florida where the movie is set. Hollywood even today has not moved on from this antiquated and outdated plot device.
Ending the phone calls after 58 seconds would not have prevented Ray Quick from being traced.
Tomas and May are clearly the same age, yet he is supposed to have killed her parents when she was a child.
However, while Eric Roberts is two years older than Sharon Stone, nowhere in the film the audience is 'clearly' given the impression that their characters are of the same age. If any, the audience is presented him as easily being 15-20 years older than her.

The scene in which Ray sets a trap in his high rise balcony hotel room overlooking the water was spectacular, but from a construction or physics perspective it was preposterous. No amount of explosives placed on the surface of the floor, walls and ceiling could have caused the balcony to break off cleanly as depicted. Ray would have had to have hired crews to use heavy equipment to drill into the concrete and then place explosives inside the concrete. Obviously the hotel would not have cooperated with Ray's remodeling.
After confronting Stallone at the restaurant with a gold colored knife, Thomas (Eric Roberts) gets in the car on the left side of Sharon Stone. When the car pulls in to her place he is on the right side of her.
Tomas looks the same age when May is a child.
When May is dropping her clothes on the floor of her apartment, she is dropping them on an obvious floor mark.
Obvious stunt double at the bridge explosion.
Mayte Vilán is listed as "Ordinance Expert". An "ordinance" expert would be someone with detailed knowledge of laws while an "ordnance" expert would have knowledge of explosives.
When Ray and May are at the Hotel getting ready to make love she tosses her purse on the bed and it can be clearly seen, but a few seconds later while they are undressing each other the purse has vanished.
Ray is not arrested after the fight on the bus.
When Trent walks in to the squad room talking to someone you see the boom mic follow them and than pull back
