Visible crew/equipment: You can see bits of the camera crew reflecting on the carriages, when the metro-train leaves the station after Akeem has gotten out after Lisa refused to marry him (near the end of the film).
Coming to America (1988)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: John Landis
Starring: Eddie Murphy, Feather, Garcelle Beauvais, James Earl Jones, John Amos, Paul Bates
Continuity mistake: When Akeem and Semmi get their apartment, the landlord says that the room has only one window facing a brick wall. But when Akeem is out on the fire escape, he yells out to a street, not a wall. And there are two windows.
Reverend Brown: Girl, you look so good, someone ought to put you on a plate and sop you up with a biscuit.
Trivia: The two bums who get the bag of money from Akeem are actually the rich men who were made bankrupt in the movie "Trading Places" (1983), starring Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd.
Question: How much money did Prince Akeem give to the homeless Randolph and Mortimer Duke from "Trading Places" (1983)?
