You can tell because the orange-red sticker on the lock is showing, which wouldn't be visible if it was locked. (00:10:50)

Revealing mistake: In the part where they are both in the big reds trailers back, the bad guy hits the breaks and the trailer starts sliding to the side. You can see the back wheels of the trailer turning making the trailer slide. (00:44:15)

Trivia: It just so happened that on a day when they needed a wide angle lens to get a shot, for the over head view of Hank shooting through the wall at Nash, that the Spider-Man movie was being filmed only a few blocks away. The director of Spider-Man let the director of National Security borrow their lens long enough to get that shot, which was on screen for only about a second. (01:04:55)
