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 "make changes" when viewing mistakes, and click "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.

When Jennifer Lopez and Bob Hoskins are preparing the luncheon in Ralph Fiennes' apartment, Lopez can be seen handling the glasses from the top. Anyone trained in hospitality and working in a five-star hotel knows to pick up a glass from the base - not the rim from which the guest will drink. [Comes down to character mistake, not movie. Even well-trained people make mistakes.] Corrected by Rlvlk

In the scene where Lopez has just been fired and she's walking across the street and Fiennes is chasing after her, she is still in her maid's uniform. But it is shown that they change into their uniform at work, not home so in effect she is stealing the uniform. [When hotel maids are employed they are required to purchase their uniform and it remains the maids property, even after dismissal. The reason Marissa was seen changing into her maid uniform is because the hotel's laundry department clean their uniforms daily. When Marissa was dismissed she would not have been returning and therfore did not require the hotel to clean her uniform.]

When Marissa came into work the first time, she didn't punch into work on the timeclock. However, in a later scene, she has her son punch her timecard out. [She did punch her card the first time we saw her go into work. It is when the security gaurd says the she just made it on time.]

When Chris first meets Ty in the elevator, Ty rattles off an impressively detailed list of facts about Chris, including his political ambitions, voting history, etc. But just a bit later on top of that big boulder in Central Park with Chris and Marissa, Chris mentions that freezing up in front of a crowd is fatal in his business, and Ty asks what Chris does. [Ty is asking Chris what he does about the freezing up in front of a crowd, not what he does for a living.]
