Other mistake: The dog ran from the woods to the plate of food set on the edge of the porch/patio, but approached the plate and started eating on the opposite side (with his body on the porch and facing the woods where he came from). A hungry and cautious stray dog would start eating as soon as he reached the plate. (00:05:13)
Continuity mistake: An exterior view of the window in the building across the street that the Virtuoso plans on shooting from shows it is comprised of three square panes stacked vertically. When the Virtuoso is inside behind the window, it is one large vertical pane. (00:10:27)
Character mistake: During the planning stage, the Virtuoso said (narrating), "You have to hit a two-inch moving target on a car going 60-plus miles per hour from 50 yards away." He was watching the CEO drive past the window to where he parks in front of his business. The CEO was shown taking a sharp turn at the intersection and squealing his tires, but the location was inner-city with short blocks and traffic lights. Downtown busy streets with pedestrians do not allow (or enable) drivers to reach high speeds. (00:10:30)
Deliberate mistake: The Virtuoso (up several stories in a building) would not be able to hear what the boy and his mother across the street were saying. The boy even started to say "Hey, mom" when he was still exiting the building. (00:11:41)
Deliberate mistake: The Virtuoso would not be able to have a flashback of the explosion that included a view from behind the van (VanTerra or Winnebago?). (00:14:07)
Continuity mistake: At the cemetery, the Virtuoso was facing a headstone (grave marker) and the screen. There was an American flag to his right. The Mentor approached from behind him. When the Virtuoso stood up and turned to face the Mentor, the flag was now on the other side of the headstone. Also, no printing/etching could be seen on either side of the headstone. (00:14:49 - 00:15:17)
Revealing mistake: Much of the cemetery scene with the Mentor was "green screened." The backgrounds were inconsistent (e.g, trees and tree trunks) and sometimes the Virtuoso's and Mentor's head were practically together when facing each other. The sizes of their heads also varied at times. The Mentor also was at an angle to the Virtuoso during his long speech, at least giving the impression that he was using cue cards to remember his lines. A couple times, the Mentor looked like he lost his place. (00:15:24)
Character mistake: Narrating, the Virtuoso said, "You leave your vehicle in long-term parking and rent a nondescript sedan. Dark colors are best." After the first murder, the Virtuoso drives away in a light-colored car (white or gray). (00:23:35 - 00:26:17)
Suggested correction: Regarding rentals, he said " Dark colors are best, then gray."
Continuity mistake: The Mentor passes (slides along his desk) the Virtuoso a piece of paper folded lengthwise with the crease toward the Virtuoso. When the Virtuoso reaches for the note, the crease is still facing him, but the fold has changed to the adjacent side. "White Rivers" is written near the bottom of the paper, with the crease above. (00:25:03)
Suggested correction: When The Vitruso reaches for the note, the crease is still facing but the fold did not change to the other side. The note has "the hit" info on the outside and "White Rivers" on the inside.
Continuity mistake: The "White Rivers" note that the Mentor gave the Virtuoso at his home is different when the Virtuoso goes home and is placing it in the fireplace. "White Rivers" is now written in the upper portion of the folded paper. Instead of "White Rivers" being written on the same line, the words are written diagonally with "Rivers" indented below "White." Unlike the original note, "WHITE RIVERS" is in all capital letters. (00:25:05 - 00:25:26)
Character mistake: One of the Virtuoso's rules is "no distractions", but he stops along the road on his way to the next mission and asks The Girl if she'd like a ride. (00:28:34)
Continuity mistake: A pickup truck, brown/tan car, and a gray car (in that order) are parked facing the front of Rosie's Cafe when the Virtuoso arrives. The Virtuoso parks perpendicular to the vehicles (but different angles are shown) and it looks like his car would be blocking the others - the front driver's side bumper is close to the brown car's rear bumper. The pickup truck is NOT there. When the Virtuoso gets out of his car, it is further back (away from the brown car's bumper) and the truck IS there. (00:29:56)
Continuity mistake: The chairs at the counter in Rosie's Cafe are neatly paced with their backs against the counter (with the one on the far right out a little) when the Virtuoso enters, but some positions change during his stay. For example, the middle one and the last one are pulled back at different times. No one at the cafe is moving them. (00:31:17 - 00:31:55)
Other mistake: After entering Rosie's Cafe, the Virtuoso, narrating, says, "You pick a seat that lets you keep an eye on both men but leaves your back vulnerable." He then sits at a table in the far corner with only a lamp on a small stand/desk behind him. The Virtuoso's back would be INvulnerable, and he should not want to sit anywhere that makes him "vulnerable." (00:31:50)
Continuity mistake: At Rosie's Cafe, the Virtuoso tells the Waitress to "leave the [coffee] pot", and she does. After the Sheriff enters, he looks toward the Virtuoso and the coffee pot is on the table. When the Sheriff looks a second time, the coffee pot is no longer on the Virtuoso's table. (00:32:58 - 00:34:30)
Other mistake: When the (impostor) Sheriff came into Rosie's Cafe, the Waitress said, "Deputy Myers" and asked him how he was doing. The Sheriff asked about (Aunt) Rosie, who the Waitress said went home sick. The Waitress offered the Sheriff some pastries and was talking to him for a while. (The conversation was not disclosed at that time.) The Waitress didn't give any indication that she did not know the Sheriff, but the Virtuoso later asked her how she couldn't know the Sheriff in such a small area. (00:34:01)
Character mistake: Still, not knowing who "White Rivers" is, the Virtuoso returns to Rosie's Cafe and continues to accept the Waitress' "passes." The Waitress was flirting (a mild term) with the Virtuoso from the time he first entered Rosie's. In addition to not abiding by his "do not get distracted" rule, he fails to even consider the possibility the Waitress was "White Rivers." Allegedly filling in for Rosie at the time given for the hit, plus her persistence in pursuing him, should have been a big red flag. (00:51:54)
Continuity mistake: When the Virtuoso goes into the kitchen at Rosie's Cafe, he sees three knives - two almost side-by-side with a third one between but below the two. When the Virtuoso goes to pick up a knife, there are now three knives side-by-side with a fourth one below the middle knife. (00:53:16)
Continuity mistake: The Virtuoso backed his car against the stable at the farmhouse, and the passenger side was aligned approximately with the inner side of the white support beam. After the Virtuoso removed weapons from his trunk, the car was further to his right - about a foot away from the white support beam. (01:05:07 - 01:05:38)
Character mistake: The woman who was shot in the farmhouse fled to the barn and apparently collapsed. The Virtuoso found her and - instead of adhering to his "do not get distracted" rule and acknowledging there will be "collateral damage" - he takes the time to find materials and suture her wound with fishing equipment. His "mission" is not complete and he still does not know who "White Rivers" is. (01:11:05)
