Genres: Action, Comedy

Audio problem: Ice Cube and Kevin Hart have left the Miami police station. They are riding in the car and the camera switches between the two talking. Right after Kevin Hart says, "No no, it's a trademark of the brothers-in-law." The shot switches to Ice Cube and Kevin says, "Uh-oh" but Kevin's mouth is not moving. (00:27:20)

Christy Mcdannell

Continuity mistake: When Kevin Hart and Ice Cube meet Olivia Munn after the car explosion after the bachelor party club scene, Olivia Munn's hands change position between shots to either by her side, hands on hips, or arms crossed, with no time between to change position. (00:40:30)

Continuity mistake: In the car-chasing scene with the Jaguar, the pursuer drive three different cars, In real-life they drive BMW e92 M3 coupes, in game-graphic BMW M4 coupes. And that one which crashes right into the Volvo is a BMW e46 coupe. (00:54:00 - 00:56:40)

Continuity mistake: At the beach booth, AJ makes Ben pick up a can of Fanta Grape from a pile of 6 (3 on bottom 1 on top). Ben picks up the one on top and puts it back on the counter by the rest of the pile. The can disappears in the wider angle and is back on top of the pyramid right at the cut. (00:51:40)

Sammo

Revealing mistake: In the sequence with Ben faking a right turn and baiting the pursuant baddies into a bad left, as the car flips hit by the pick-up, you can see without need of slo-motion that there are no people in it, merely hydraulics. (00:56:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Olivia Munn is supporting Ben stunned by James' punches, her handbag is in her right hand, behind his back, but in the next shot she holds the bag in her left hand, on the front. (01:01:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At Pope's party, once they have talked about the possibility of a Gucci toilet, the trio of good guys is looking at the crowd, spotting Pope. Olivia Munn is not on Kevin Hart's arm in the wide shot, it is in the closer view. (01:02:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: James' approach to Tasha from the swimsuit models joint is failing right from the start, and his 'brother' takes over. He puts a hand on his shoulder, it's visible in the next shot that he lowers his arm, but he's still in the same position as before with the hand on his shoulder at the next cut. (00:47:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the default Apple ringtone plays, there are continuity errors with Tasha's hands. She has her left hand on her mouth (you can tell even if she's in the foreground) when he points out what the sound is, all of a sudden. And seconds later when he says "That costs absolutely nothing!" her raised arm switches from right to left. (00:48:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Waiting outside the club after AJ's escape, James and Ben are talking and Ben is trying to say that he totally did not want to have a good time with hot women around. In Ice Cube's reaction shot Kevin Hart brings his hand forward, but he still has his arm stretched out in the next shot. A moment later Olivia Munn arrives, and there's another slight continuity jump; she dismounts from the pick-up and Kevin Hart looks away from her turning towards Ice Cube, but in the closer angle that follows, he's staring at her, hand raised. (00:39:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Ben picks his jacket up and walks past Maya and James to go towards his car, Olivia Munn goes from having her arms down her sides to a pose with her hand on her hips, instantaneously. (00:41:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the car bomb stunt, Kevin Hart slides off the hood twice in two separate shots and gets up leaning against the police car with his left hand in two different spots, curled also differently. (00:42:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The brothers in law bicker in front of the massage parlor. There's a specific shot when Kevin Hart takes about 3 seconds to talk about Cory being "the devil's spawn with lady parts." When the camera is back solely on Ice Cube, the same big dude with a black tanktop who was walking behind him is still walking, but starting from the same exact spot as earlier. He made no progress at all while he was off-camera. (00:45:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At "Beach Kitten Inc.", the receptionist offers a bottle of water. Behind her, a girl wearing a orange bikini is the same girl that is walking behind Ice Cube in the reverse shot a moment later. (00:46:30)

Sammo

Factual error: As it happens in many Hollywood movies, we have a gun that is "ceramic" (actually a polymer, "plastic" as Ben corrects himself later) that is entirely stealthy, able to fool the metal detectors at the entrance of a building. It's not an imaginary high-tech device, but is explicitly referenced as the FN Five-seveN handgun (here called repeatedly as FN Five point seven). The metal detector would still pick up the metallic parts and the bullets. (00:40:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The brothers in law have just captured AJ after the foot chase. AJ is trying to make Jason mad. Ken Jeong's hair is not consistent between shots; look for instance when he leans in saying "The sex part. Think about it." He had messy hair across his forehead a moment before, now it's all gone. (00:33:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When AJ irritates James chirping "Me so horny" in his ear, the car comes to a full stop and AJ bumps his head. At least in theory, since it appears it's more a camerawork effect than the car actually coming to a screeching halt. In the close-up within the car, Ice Cube is also holding the wheel firmly with both hands up, in the 10 and 2 position. But in the wider angles the person in the driver seat is holding the wheel more casually than that. (00:33:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When in the club AJ introduces the lady friends who are totally not prostitutes, Ben has both hands on the Assface phone in the wider shot but just one hand on it in the closer angle that leaves his head out of frame. (00:36:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ben is taking a picture of AJ between two strippers and their gazongas. AJ, facing some stereophonic chest compression, says "I can't breath no more"; next to Ben's phone you can see the non-prostitute holds her drink with the right hand. In the last shot that girl is holding it in the left hand. (00:36:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: AJ calls for the toast for Ben; the escort sitting next to Kevin Hart claps her hands along with the others for "Toast! Toast!", but in the following shot her hand that was up in the air to clap before the cut is suddenly back on his shoulder. (00:37:20)

Sammo

James Payton: Now, you guys think it's gang-related. I say that's bullshit.
Maya: Because you're an expert on local gangs?
James Payton: No, I'm an expert on bullshit.
