Mistake Continuity: When the two criminals are chasing Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence on the highway, they pull up beside them and the white criminal throws his cigarette at Tim Robbins, but in the next scene he has the cigarette back in his mouth.

Mistake Continuity: At the gas station with the hillbilly, the gas nozzle that Nick puts in his car when he is thinking of his wife is first red, then black, and then just silver.

Mistake Continuity: When T. has robbed a gas station, the hillbilly that owns the gas station breaks one of the mirrors of the car with a shotgun blast, and he even smashes the back window of the car. But when they are driving off there is one shot where the mirror is miraculously back in a perfect condition while the back window is still broken. In all later scenes the mirror is dangling down.

Mistake Plot hole: The policeman survives a frontal crash into the hillbilly's truck at full speed without as much a scratch.

Mistake Factual error: Visible lasers are never used as a security feature.

Mistake Factual error: In the scene where Martin Lawrence robs the gas station, the attendant runs out and shoots off the side-view mirror with a shotgun. Notice that the gun blast does no other damage. Not possible with that type of weapon as evidenced by the huge hole blasted in the back window of Nick's SUV only minutes later in the chase.

Mistake Continuity: After the run-in with Nick, T. Paul and the other two criminals, T. Paul ends up shooting the tire of the criminals' car, and they exit, leaving the criminals stranded. The criminals end up stealing an English guy's car, but when they catch up with Nick and T. Paul after they've robbed Nick's boss, they are driving their old, beat up, and supposedly punctured car.

Mistake Continuity: At the very end, Nick puts the last of Mama's mustard on his hot dog, but when he takes a bite, there is no mustard on it.

Mistake Other: When T. jumps through the rear window of Nick's van he falls on the street but rolls the wrong way, against any laws of physics.

Mistake Continuity: Nick's shoes catch on fire about half way through the movie. At the end of the movie when Nick and Terrance face off against Charlie and the other guy (from Platoon), his shoes are fine.

Mistake Revealing: When Nick tells T. that he wants to give the money back they start fighting. Nick's sleeve gets almost ripped off, but before this happens you can see that the sleeve is stitched on rather loosely.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where the hillbilly is chasing Nick and T, T tells Nick that the five dollars he gave the waitress was the last he had, where in fact what he gave the waitress was a one dollar bill.

Mistake Continuity: When the 4x4 is being rammed, there is a shot of a car traveling in the opposite direction. In the very next shot, it is gone.

Mistake Factual error: The lasers shown protecting the office hit objects, like the desk. This should set the alarm off as it crossed and interrupted the laser beam.

Mistake Continuity: When being chased, the 4x4 gets damaged down one side. When leaving from the heist, it is fine.

Mistake Continuity: Just after they rob the gas station they do a turn in the road to avoid the cops. If you look you can see skid marks doing the exact same turn in the same place, revealing they are from previous takes.

Mistake Continuity: When Nick is fighting with T at the diner, the dog in the background is constantly looking in opposite directions between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Nick is carjacked at the start, he drives through a red light. This turns to green before he reaches halfway across the junction. But cars still come from left and right.

Mistake Continuity: When T is saying to Nick what he would have done in Nick's situation, he has grass in his hair that is constantly moving.

Mistake Continuity: When Nick pulls into the diner the back of his truck is clean. When he parks it is covered in dust.
