Continuity mistake: During the part where Loc Dog bets Ashtray that he can get the girl's number, there's a guy dancing directly behind Ashtray wearing a purple shirt and purple hat.

Continuity mistake: When Loc Dog goes for his job he sits down and fills out the application form. The man next to him talks about how great he his then the camera moves away. The secretary then lifts Loc Dog's form beside her but we never actually seen him give it to her.

Continuity mistake: When Dashiki is reading her man-hating poem to Ashtray, there are two baby bottles: one pink, the other white (or clear and filled with milk). There is also a baby toy or rattle of some sort lying next to one of the bottles and a plant to the right of the bottles. From one shot to the next, both the location and the colors of the white bottle continue to change, first white, then blue, then white again. Also, the baby toy completely disappears after the first shot of it and the plant moves further to the right until eventually, it/s missing off of the table altogether.

Continuity mistake: When the white man shoots the gun in the convenience store to knock down the lights on the cashiers, they show a close up of his hand shooting a Beretta, but when he throws the gun to Ashtray and Loc Dog, it's a Glock.

Visible crew/equipment: At the start of the movie when Ashtray goes to get out of his car and hits the guy on the bike, the camera angle changes to show the crash from the other side of the car.

Continuity mistake: In the "I-said-do-we-have-a-problem-here?" scene, the guys in the car get scared and reverse out of the shot. However, we hear the gears change a few times - I didn't know that there were gears when you were going in reverse...
