When Max picks up the prosecutor outside her building, it's daylight. As the scene shifts to them talking inside the cab, it's dark outside. [He doesn't pick her up outside her building, he picks her up from the airport. It was sunset when she was picked up, that is why it became dark.]

There is no way Vincent could have gotten on the back of Max and Annie's train. They choose the train on the lower platform; after deliberating between the two, Vincent runs for the one on the UPPER platform. And the logistics, not to mention a solid wall, track, and platform, mean he couldn't have jumped from one train to the other. [No, Max and Annie get on the upper train (the Metro blue line, which is a lighter rail train than the Red line,a subway train, which was below.) The confusion comes from when they went down an escalator. The escalator Max and Annie use is to get down to the floor Vincent ended up at, trying to decide which train, and not the escalator Vincent looks down leading to the Red line subway. Max goes to the blue line in front of Vincent.]
Just before Max flips the taxi, look over his left shoulder. You can plainly see that his seat belt is NOT on; it is fully retracted up in the door frame. He would have most certainly been more bruised up than he was. He had no visible scratches or cuts anywhere on him. [This just isn't true. Vincent had many visible scratches on his face through until the end of the movie.]
When Vincent uses his computer to identify the Asian man as his next victim, the info on that guy fills up the whole screen. When Max sees the screen later, it is split so that both the Asian guy and Annie fit on the screen at the same time. [Vincent probably just resized the document and opened Annies files in another window. You can do the same thing by opening 2 word documents and resizing them.]
Near the end of the movie in the scene where Max has called Annie to warn her of Vincent's imminent threat to her, Max asks her what floor she is on. She says she is on the 16th floor, in the law library. Max then tells her that Vincent is 2 floors below her, in the corner office. Then, in a following scene where Vincent is in Annie's office and notices that somebody in the building is on the phone, the camera shows a close up of the lit up line and it says "File room, 15th floor". [Actually, if you look close enough, the phone listing does indeed say "File room, 16th floor", not 15th. No mistake here.]
When the police officer relays the taxi's licence plate over the radio, he uses the phonetic "queen" to relay the letter Q. As a trained police officer, he should know that the phonetic "Quebec" should be used for that letter. [Last year, I was stopped by a police officer who struggled with the phonetic alphabet while calling in my licence plate (something she must have done several times a day). Trained professionals forget things, or get confused, just like the rest of us.]
Vincent shoots the trumpet player three times in the head. There would have been a massive exit wound in the back of his head. But when he slumps down on the table, the back of his head is dry and not affected. [Actually, many real hitmen use low velocity (22 caliber) guns specifically because the bullet won't exit from the back of the head, causing much more damage to the brain, and almost certain death.]
Vincent cuts the power to the building, thus alerting Jada Pinkett Smith. He did not know she was being warned on the phone and lost all his element of surprise. He could have just sneaked up on her without having to kill the electricity. [So what? Then that was a questionable choice made by Vincent, not an error in the movie.]
When Jamie Foxx calls the DA's office, she is in the library not her office but yet the phone in the library rings. [Most office's telephone system are linked together, and can be picked-up at any telephone. ]
After Vincent cuts the power, Max and the DA use the elevator to go down. The elevator should not have been able to run. [It never specifies that he cuts power to the entire building, just that one floor. Also, in some buildings, elevators run off of emergency generators if main power is disrupted.]
Max puts the DA's card in his visor. After the car crash, he takes it from his wallet. [A good bit of time passes between when we see the business card in the visor and that point in the movie. Now given that Vincent knew about the girl's card and knowing how he threatened Max with harm to his mother ealier, wouldn't it be fair to assume that Max could've easily pocketed the card at some point?]
