The top mistakes in The Taking of Pelham 123 http://www.moviemistakes.com/film7865 en Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:59:17 +0000 154533 After Garber shoots Ryder, he is told by the approaching policemen to "drop your weapon". At which point the camera pans to a shot behind Garber where he is holding the gun in his right hand and proceeds to drop it. Watch the bottom of the screen and you will see Garber catch the falling gun with his left hand. 149968 The Brietling John Travolta is wearing is different from scene to scene when he is on board the train. One watch has 3 dials; the other none. 150263 When they give Garber the pistol to take, it has actually changed when he pulls it out of the bag, it's an entirely different pistol. 149855 Towards the end of the movie when the single train car is rushing down the Coney Island bound F line, you see different camera shots of the train above ground. One of the shots shows the train speeding past Shea Stadium, which is actually located in Queens on the 7 line. 150972 During the scene where Ramus is shutting down the power in the tunnel, he shoots off a padlock with a gun with one shot. Aside from being quite dangerous at close range, both Mythbusters and Masterlock have proven this cannot be done with an ordinary gun and ammo, and certainly would be unlikely with one try. I know this used to be run-of-the-mill stuff in movies, but it does not fit modern research that has been done concerning the strength of padlocks vs using guns to open them.
