1 | * HarsherInHindsight: K2 was well-known as one of the deadliest mountains in the world when this movie came out. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_K2_disaster The events of the 2008 season]] did not improve its reputation. |
2 | * MoralEventHorizon: Vaughn crosses it with the revelation that [[spoiler:he stole Wick's wife's dex, resulting in her dying from edema]]. |
3 | * {{Narm}}: To some people, the shot of Royce Garrett hitting the ground is unintentionally comedic and ruins the DownerBeginning. |
4 | * RetroactiveRecognition: The film has a remarkably high number of cast members recognizable from major sci-fi franchises. Besides Creator/BillPaxton (''Film/TheTerminator'', ''Film/{{Aliens}}''), there's Alexander Siddig and Creator/NicholasLea (Dr. Bashir from ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'' and Krycek from ''Series/TheXFiles'', respectively), Robert Taylor (Agent Jones from ''Film/TheMatrix''), and Temuera Morrison and Ben Mendelsohn before their major roles in ''Franchise/StarWars''. |
5 | * SpecialEffectFailure: Scenes filmed on the cliff's edge, like the helicopter drop and Monique's attempted rescue of Cyril, are obviously filmed in front of a greenscreen due to their flat backgrounds and poor lighting. |
