Paul Smecker: Oh, isn't that beautiful? All the lowlifes in quiet city Boston start dropping dead and *you* think it's unrelated! Greenly, the day I want the Boston Police to do my thinking for me, I will have a fucking tag on my toe!

Visible crew/equipment: In the firefight scene, when Rocco and the brothers walk out of the house and see Il Duce, crew members are visible in the sunglasses. The most prominent example is in the head-on shot of the three men with Rocco in the middle. A man in a red jacket holding the camera is visible along with a half-dozen other crew members. Several of the shots between the timestamps have crew members' reflections visible in the glasses.
Revealing: In the scene where Rocco kills the two 'goodfellas' in the restaurant, he hides his gun by holding the gun behind his coat. Before the shot switches, you see the gun go off, yet the hammer is down the entire time. The revolver could have been single or double action, but the hammer would still have to have gone back. It is easier to see the gun go off on the NC-17 version or on the deleted scene, but you do see the flash on the R version.
Continuity: When they bring coffee to the brothers in the police station, one of the guys holds up the tray and there are three cups visible. The brothers take two and walk away. The next shot is from in front of the brothers, where you can see, over their shoulder, that there is no one holding up the coffee tray. The next shot is of the group again, and the tray is back to being held up.
Other: When Agent Smecker is dressed as a woman and has made it inside Papa Joe's house, when he kills the first man, the gun shot is loud, and he screams as he shoots. When he shoots the second guy, the gunshot is muted, letting you know that there is a silencer on it. Also, the second guy would've heard the first gunshot because it was so loud, and the scream, and would have come to investigate.
Revealing: Prior to the scene where the trio raids the card game, the three bring the wife, hands bound, to enter the security code. When the guy "cuts" the duct tape, look closely at the wife's hands, the knife never actually cuts the tape; rather he pretends to cut and simply lifts the tape... and voila, her hands are free.
Factual error: In the scene, where Paul Smecker is checking the green trash-bin, he finds a bullet from Ivan Checkov's gun. Nevertheless, earlier (in the plot), or later (in subsequence of the scenes), in the scene, where Connor MacManus is falling down with toilet on Russians' backs, Ivan Checkov, while the toilet hits his bald head, is shooting with his gun, but he misses the trash-bin - the angle of shooting is obviously too extreme to hit the bin.
