Continuity mistake: Near the beginning, Jake drives a motorcycle out of the warehouse shoot-out and spins out as police cars converge on him. He has blood coming out of the right corner of his mouth, the shot changes, cuts back to him and the blood is on the left, then right again in the subsequent shot.
Continuity mistake: The beginning scene involves two kids in the finals of the school championships. Why are there only adults watching? In a children's tournament all the other kids would most definitely be watching this game.
Continuity mistake: In the outdoor restaurant scene (where Tim Robbins has just spoken to Burt Reynolds), the waiter brings Tim Robbins a bottle of water and a wine goblet, but when he pours the entire bottle of water into the goblet, it's obvious that it was not a full bottle of water to begin with. It doesn't fill the glass of half way. A waiter would not serve an opened bottle of water to a diner.
Continuity mistake: When crackhead drug dealer stabs Mr. Big at the table in the club, the boss pulls a table cloth, upsetting crockery. In next shot it's all perfectly tidy.
Continuity mistake: When Levoi and Crowhorse visit Grandpa for the first time note the white and black beaded belt on the table behind Grandpa. In the beginning it hangs at the edge just at the first black stripe. Just after Grandpa trades Levoi for his glasses and hands him the rock, the belt now hangs nearly to the second black stripe. After that cut the belt now hangs in its original position. (00:37:30 - 00:38:30)
Visible crew/equipment: In a later scene, when Kim Basinger comes to see Richard while he's in custody, you can very clearly see the boom mic over their heads.
Visible crew/equipment: After Ivy and Sylvia crash into the tree you can see the reflections of the crew and the boom mike on the side of the car when Ivy wakes up.
Continuity mistake: When the terrorists attack the van at the bridge, shortly after the explosion, you see the terrorists crossing the water in a boat. In the background you can see the van on the bridge with its doors open, shortly after this the terrorists are at the van doors demanding that the police open the van doors!
Revealing mistake: When Lance Henrickson's character gets killed, there's a close-up of his flashlight lying in the snow with a rivulet of blood flowing past it. It's very obviously fake snow, since there are snowflakes floating on top of the blood.
Visible crew/equipment: At the end when Dr. Angelo and Peter are escaping the blast, just after Angelo jumps down over the facility wall and calls for Peter to follow, for a second you can see someone holding the back of Peter's shirt to help him drop down, or it might be a rigging of some kind.
Revealing mistake: After Nick escapes from the agents, he runs to a convenience store and bangs on the door for help. While he's doing this, his reflection can be seen on the glass of the door he's trying to open.
Continuity mistake: When Ray Liotta throws Madeline Stowe on the bed after she pulls the gun on him, he used his hands to pin her arms down. Then they cut to a different angle, her arm is pinned under Ray's leg and he's grabbing her hair.
Other mistake: When the girl throws a grenade at the closed window it rolls a bit and you see that the bottom has been drilled out.
Continuity mistake: When Chet and Stanley asks Irene some questions (in the café, about 15 minutes into the movie) about the murder, the cigarette Irene smokes changes a few times between the shots. Most obvious is the length of the ashes. (00:16:13)
Visible crew/equipment: After Jack jumps out of the plane he comes close to another Flying Elvis, who is being suspended from a visible cable.
Continuity mistake: In the last scene, Tanya gets her arm cut on a piece of glass in the window by Charles, just before he turns to fight a cop. In the next shot the glass has disappeared from the window completely.
Plot hole: There's no way Dr. Lynn Waldheim's coat would have fitted Carter.
Other mistake: Early in the movie the robbers need to enter a code - the code they get by force is "7465" but the code that the leader of the gang enters is "7466". (00:12:50)
Continuity mistake: Brian Hornsby is being questioned by local investigator Alfonso Rodriguez. While he listens to him, he flips through a few photos of Rodriguez' s romantic endeavours. He picks from the pile the last photo, but in the next shot the photo he shows him was the topmost one. (00:12:40)
