The Whole Nine Yards

Factual error: It's impossible to receive a phone call on a Bell Canada public phone, as Jill did. (01:25:10)

Sereenie

Factual error: When Sophie is driving Oz to the airport, the airport sign indicates Dorval underneath. While Dorval is a real airport, the airport seen in the movie is at Mirabel, which is about 45 minutes north of Montreal and has been closed to international and domestic travel for several years. (00:17:50)

Factual error: When Sophie hires another contract killer, they are having sex at Niagara Falls. It seems that a few hours later they have driven to Montreal, which is almost 7 hours away. The movie implies a very short distance between Niagara Falls and Montreal.

Factual error: At the beginning of the movie, there is a view of a little town and they said that is Montreal. The city of Montreal and its nearest suburbs are covered with buildings. It is more like a far suburb. (00:02:00)

Dr Wilson

Continuity mistake: When Oz is back from Chicago, after taking Jill to meet Jimmy, Oz calls Jimmy's wife, and when the phone rings, a red light shines on the phone. Then on the 2nd call the light doesn't shine anymore. (00:54:05 - 00:55:00)
