Revealing mistake: In the scene where Jalil and Smokey are talking on the race track, after Jalil wipes out in his race: if you look behind Jalil when Smokey leaves, you can see that the man sweeping the floor in the stands isn't actually sweeping at all - his broom is inches above the ground and he is simply sweeping air.

Revealing mistake: In the chase scene in the subway, Napster stops the subway train at the end of the tunnel to block the tunnel entrance. When you see the view on his laptop, the train station CLEARLY has a metal railing. There is no such railing throughout the rest of the scene. (Yes, it's likely while filming that railing was removed to enhance the scene then put back.) (01:27:45)
