Also on the police report, it states that Chrissy was removed to the "CORNERS OFFICE" and not the coroner's office. (00:09:30)

Character mistake: In the fight in the Shaolin temple the Bruce Lee impersonator fights 4 monks who are supposed to attack him simultaneously, and they do, but Miss amazingly obvious openings, to the point of spending long seconds hopping around without attacking.

Hard Times picture

Character mistake: In the first fight, there's a reaction shot where Speed shouts jubilant "Yes, yes!" when his own fighter misses with his attack and doubles over hit by a painful kick in the gut. That's a mighty weird thing to cheer on. (00:07:00)
