Visible crew/equipment: Near the beginning of the movie when Nick is on his motorcycle going to get one of his kids to take to school, as he picks the other kid up to kiss, you can see the reflection of a circular lamp on his black helmet visor.
Black Rain (1989)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Ridley Scott
Starring: Andy Garcia, Kate Capshaw, Ken Takakura, Michael Douglas
Continuity mistake: During the big fight scene at the end of the movie, both Nick and Sato become totally saturated and covered in mud. Nick defeats Sato, and is shown to have immediately arrested Sato and brought him to the police station. It is clear they came directly to the station from the fight, yet there is now hardly any mud on either of them.
Nick Conklin: Now, you got a counterfeiting ring goin' on and you should talk to your partner before you go to the suits. So fuck you very much.
Trivia: Was Ridley Scott's first successful film in a decade. Every other film he had made since 1979's "Alien" flopped at the box office, while "Black Rain" ended up becoming a massive hit. It was the eleventh highest-grossing film of the year.
