Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry At the beginning of the film when Oz is driving to his dental clinic, he crosses the Jacques Cartier bridge heading south towards Longueuil. However, when he arrives at work, his office is actually located in Old Montreal. I figure they did this just to be able to show the bridge and get that slow pan shot across the Montreal skyline. [He's actually driving towards Montréal. Notice that La Ronde is shown in back, then the cantilever part of the bridge which Oz is driving towards. It then shows Mount Royal and the skyline, which is all part of Montréal where he's driving to.]
Time
Entry Just before the main shootout, Jill appears in the doorway naked, with her hands behind her back (presumably holding a gun). When they cut back to her both her hands are in front of her - although off the screen on the bottom - and the bad guys don't see she had a gun? She then proceeds to shoot the last bad guy.  If she didn't have the gun initially where did she pull it from? [If Amanda Peet were standing bare-breasted in front of most any male, it's highly unlikely they would notice anything in her hands (or that she even had hands).]

Entry At the end, when Jill jumps into Jimmy's arms she tells Oz that Cynthia is waiting for him and that he would know where. The where is the airport, but there is nothing during the movie that would indicate that he would know that. [The whole point of this is to show how well Oz knows her. ]

Entry They manipulate the undercover cop's teeth, put him in the car and burned him. However, the undercover cop is found in a quite good shape by the two cops in Jimmy's house, the next day. [They didn't find the cop (Hanson) in Jimmy's house. They found the bodies of Janni Gogolak's henchmen. What they identified as Hanson's were his car and his tape recorder.]
Time
Entry At the end of the film, after Jimmy shoots Frankie on the boat 5 or 6 times, they cut to a far shot of the boat with Frankie's back to the camera. You can see him jump up to clear the rail when he falls back into the ocean. [There is no jump. Micheal Clark Duncan is a big man and the railing is up to his waist. After his upper body cleared the railing, his momentum would have carried his feet as well.]
