Mistakes

Towards the end where they steal the chip, they are detected and about a million security guards are all running around, yet 30 seconds later, the ONLY security guard is ONE MAN with a shotgun. What happened to their big army of security guards? See more...

Trivia

The jacket that Robert Redford wears for most of the film is the exact same jacket he wears in "The Natural" - he got to keep it after filming had finished, and wore it for this film as well. See more...

When Robert Redford is in the drop ceiling trying to escape, his radio gets heard by the big guy with the shotgun down below. Big guy shoots, cocks the gun, shoots, cocks the gun, shoots, cocks the gun, then Ben Kingsley interrupts them, and does his little monologue. When Robert Redford removes the tile in the drop ceiling to give himself up, the big guy cocks his shotgun again, expelling a cartridge which sounds empty. [The the pump action shotgun shown is working as designed. A pump action shotgun is built so that, in one motion, "pumping" the forestock extracts the spent [i.e. empty] cartridge from the chamber and ejects it and then readies another cartridge for loading [basically back to eject, forward to reload].]

Dr. Janek's chip has computer information on it that can break any other code. Therefore, the code is copyable. So why does anybody else only worry about that getting one chip, considering that the characters could easily make any number of copies and save it to disk? [Beacuse they would still need that one chip to make copies.]

There is a scene where Robert Redford is jumped by three guys. There are three guys at the beginning of the fight, then one kind of ducks off screen and Redford fights the other two guys and knocks them out. I kept waiting for the third guy to come and fight with Redford but he never does, he just kind of disappears. [What happens is Carl jumps through the ceiling and tackles the character played by Timothy Busfield, knocking him out. Then Carl stands up and waits for Redford to finishing fighting with Wallace. That's why it looks like there are three guys starting out and then one disappears.]
