Continuity mistake: At the ballpark, Poole is seated (alone) in the top row, four seats in. There is a large square pillar separating the next section (to the left of the screen). In the lower left-hand corner, a dark-haired man with a mustache can be seen. When the camera returns, the pillar is gone, Poole appears to be in the third (not fourth) seat, and the dark-haired man is seated as high as Poole. (00:39:35)
City of Lies (2018)
1 continuity mistake
Directed by: Brad Furman
Starring: Johnny Depp, Forest Whitaker, Toby Huss
Revealing mistake: After Frank shoots Kevin and Kevin's SUV hits the curb, the background/scenery changes as well as the position of Frank's car. Frank initially pulls along the curb (behind the SUV) with his car at about a 30° angle. The next time Frank's car is shown, it is almost perpendicular to the curb and the Food Mart. When Rupple and Frank have their guns aimed, they would be aiming inside the Mart, not toward Kevin. Objects in the background also change (e.g, fire hydrant, telephone pole appear). (00:16:48)
