Continuity: When Michael Douglas' character attacks the Oriental shopkeeper he puts his foot on the shopkeeper's neck and his socks are clearly visible as white.

Continuity: During part of the filming, Michael Douglas had a cold sore. This is visible off and on during the movie, reflecting the sequence of filming, not the story sequence.

Factual error: When the little black kid tells Douglas how to shoot the bazooka and asks where he is aiming it, Douglas tells him "that big yellow monster down there" (i.e., a construction truck about a block down) and at this, the bazooka is pointed at the ground, and accidentally goes off. The shell "travels" thru some pipe system and then blows up a block away. This is total fantasy. Had this been real, the shell would have exploded right there, killing everybody within about 200 feet.

Continuity: When D-Fens meets with the two gang members, watch the gangsters positions as they stop walking. They are standing close to each other as one of them says, "I'm not laughing."

The store owner says, "Take the money." and in the next shot the boxes are properly lined up again.

Visible crew/equipment: After Michael Douglas has crossed the golf course and climbed into the garden with the family barbecue, he slumps against a wall as he talks to the family. We get a close-up of Douglas for a good 30 seconds or so, and during this time the camera lens is very clearly visible as a reflection in Douglas' glasses.
