Mistake Factual error: In the scene where Trey's father shoots at the burglar the gun punches baseball sized holes in the door. A .357 Magnum bullet going through a thin wooden door would just punch through, without expanding or tumbling, and leave a hole only a bit larger than the bullet diameter.

Mistake Factual error: When Trey first comes to live with his father, he is ordered to rake the leaves on the lawn. However, after he starts, the camera pans out to reveal there is not a single tree near their house. Down the block there are a couple of palm trees, but they do not produce the kind of leaves he was raking. So where did these leaves come from?

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Lawerence Fishburne is awaiting the Police on his doorstep he lights a cigarette and proceeds to smoke it. A few seconds later it can be seen that the cigarette has not been lit.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": When Lawerence Fishburn goes to Reva's car when she delivers Tre, Lawerence's face can be seen in the inside rear-view mirror as he kneels down on the passenger side.
