Updated recently Plot hole: When the TV News report about Bogomil's shooting, they say that he was leading the investigation into "the so-called Alphabet Crimes". However before he was shot, there was only one crime - the Adriano's robbery.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Ronnie Cox's character gets shot when helping to fix Brigitte Nielson's car, the gun is fired twice, yet there are 3 bullet holes in the rear windshield. How did that happen?

Mistake Continuity: The guy in the armored car's passenger seat disappears and reappears during the chase.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where they are chasing the armored car in the cement truck the chutes on the truck keep going from being down to folded up. This happens several times in the scene.

Mistake Continuity: At the beginning, when the limo comes around the corner to the Jewelers, the license plate says one thing when the car turns the corner, then is a personalized plate reading something else when the car parks in front of the store.

Mistake Continuity: When Lt. Bogomil gets shot in a driveby while helping Brigette Nielsen's character with her car, you can plainly see that the driveby car is a black 1987 Camaro.   However, later in the movie the same gunmen are shown driving a black 1977 Camaro. [They could have changed car, but it doesn't seem likely...]

Mistake Continuity: When Eddie Murphy jumps onto the moving ready-mix concrete truck that Judge Reinhold has stolen, you can see that his gun falls out of his jeans, yet he is using it moments later.

Mistake Continuity: In the sequence when Dent's car goes over the ridge and crashes below, one shot shows the car going over the edge completely straight with its front end slamming into the ground below. The next shot, supposedly a split-second later, shows the car sideways while striking the ground, stopped almost completely and bursting into flames.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the meeting at the police station with among others Chief Lutz and the mayor you see part of technical equipment in the top left corner of the screen - several times."

Mistake Continuity: In the opening scene, Eddie Murphy actually drives two different types of Ferrari - a 308 and a 328. During his journey, the cars keep changing.

Mistake Continuity: Bogomil is standing and looking down into the engine of Karla's car when the assassin drives up. However when the shot is fired, Bogomil rolls on the bonnet of the car. When was the bonnet closed?

Mistake Continuity: When Axel, Rosewood, and Taggart are racing to get to the City Deposit, Rosewood and Taggart fight over whether the light is green or red. Rosewood drives through it and hits another car. The red police beacon falls off the roof and onto the hood. As the car spins the beacon is gone. In the next shot we can see the beacon back on top of the car above Taggart's head.

Mistake Continuity: The limo used by Karla on the way to Adriains mysterously changes plates. The first shot of the limo you see a rainbow style vanity plate that reads DENT, after the cut-away, the plate is a different style and has alpha-numeric sequencing.

Mistake Continuity: The sunglasses on the guard at the warehouse at film's end disappear and reappear when Axel beats him up.

Mistake Continuity: When Axel, Taggart and Rosewood show up at Emperian Fields, they are driving a brown car, but when they drive to Dent's oil fields, they are driving a blue car.

Mistake Continuity: In the jewelery store the front door is locked by the employee at gun point. When Karla leaves she simply pushes the door open and walks out.

Mistake Continuity: Hugh Heffner disappears. In one clip he is right next to Axel. Three to four seconds later he is nowhere to be seen, even though the camera pans around, and the spot is quite crowded.

Mistake Continuity: After Axel shoots the screens in the gun club they show a shot of Karla and Russ talking about the shell casing. You can see the screens between and around them. There are no holes. Axel is also playing with the artificial laser sighted gun just as he was in the previous shots before he shot holes in the screens. Axel and Karla are later shown at the shooting range and the screens are perfectly intact.

Mistake Continuity: When Axel pulls into the warehouse to meet up with Vinnie he barely gets the Ferrari into the dock doorway and it is crooked when he parks it. After he gets out of the car the car is pulled in further into the doorway and parked straight.

Mistake Continuity: At the beginning of the film you see a jogger jogging on some kind of a sandy shingle surface. When Axel is in this man's house he finds his trainers. Axel picks picks up a left-footed trainer, but in the next shot he's holding a right-footed trainer.
