Edit

Mistake Continuity: In the scene at the bar with Gideon when the black guy pours Gideon a drink it is only about 1/3 full. When Gideon drinks it in the next shot it is almost full.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Brandon walks in on Top Dollar's meeting and there's a big shoot out, the guy in the trousers with hearts on them gets shot and killed, but a few seconds later you see him again shooting at Eric.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Eric kidnaps T-Bird and forces him to drive the hot-rod to the dock, Erik holds a large silver revolver up to T-Bird's head, then removes a black automatic from T-Bird's hand and drops it into the front floorboard. A few moments into the chase we see Erik holding the black automatic to the side of T-Bird's head, and the silver revolver is gone.

Edit

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Lee shoots Fun Boy, Fun Boy falls backwards on to the bed. His leg flies up, and you can clearly see the cord coming from his pants that is attached to the fake blood bag.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Lee takes T-Bird in his car and the chase with the Police begins, the camera flashes to look at the chase through the eyes of the crow, the Police cars emergency lights are strobes, but when the camera reverts back to the chase scene they are the old style rotating flashers.

Edit

Screen shot Revealing: When Draven sends T-bird to his death in his car, the real Ford Thunderbird is replaced by a fake mockup using a flimsy one-piece fiberglass body mounted on a pair of straight axles. When it explodes, the body lifts off in one piece, warping wildly while the front axle simply falls away. No proper car components like engine, transmission, suspension and so on, are seen anywhere, though they should be. Submitted by John W Rosa

Edit

Mistake Audio problem: There is a scene where Eric is following the crow through a dark room. The camera trails off to show the crow's shadow and there is a sound as of wings fluttering yet the shadow is perfectly still.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: Watch T Bird's facial scars, they change from small to big throughout the police chase.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": When the crow drops Shelley's ring into Sarah's hand at the end of the film, the sound of metal upon metal is heard.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Eric is about to leave Gideon, he points the shotgun at him, then holds it vertically. Just after he says "your job is to tell the rest of them..." we see a shot of Gideon, and the barrel of the shotgun is visible in the top left corner, pointing at him again. Back to Eric, and the shotgun's still vertical. Submitted by Jon Sandys

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Funboy gets shot in the leg it hits his right, he is then shown clutching his bloody left leg and then his right when he is dragged into the bathroom. It goes back and forth like this. (Time)

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When officer Albrecht shows the Shelly Webster file to Eric before the "nothing is trivial" conversation, the police hat changes of position over the table in every shot.

Edit

Mistake Audio problem: When Albrecht asks to Eric if he is going to vanish into thin air again, the shot changes and Albrecht still is moving his mouth but now he is voiceless.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: When Darla prepares the breakfast to Sarah, the bottle of juice on the table changes of positions between the shots, just notice the label,it faces to different directions.

Edit

Mistake Continuity: After Eric spreads petrol (or something ignitable), he leaves Gideon's Pawn Shop with the shotgun full of rings.  When standing outside, he shoots the shotgun into the building.  First of all, I doubt that even petrol could make such a big explosion.   Secondly, if you watch closely, the top of the building seems to blow up before the bottom.
