Directed by: Alex Proyas
Starring: Kiefer Sutherland, Jennifer Connelly, William Hurt, Rufus Sewell
Revealing mistake: When John looks at the newspaper clippings allegedly about the serial killer, you can see that the body of the articles is nothing whatsoever to do with serial killers and murders, irrespective of the headlines. One is from WWII, about the Japanese army being bombed. The others similarly are unrelated to the murders. (00:20:12)
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Murdoch falls off the building, you can see the rope that is holding him up, twice. (00:59:00)
Visible crew/equipment: Mr. Book levitates Dr. Schreber and asks him why Murdoch doesn't sleep. As Murdoch is being brought back, the wire holding him up is visible briefly. (00:31:29)
Dr. Schreber: Remember John, never talk to strangers.
Trivia: The opening narration in the theatrical version of the film was included at the insistence of the studio, who feared the audience might not understand the film. Director Alex Proyas hated the narration, and had it entirely removed from the film when his director's cut was released several years later.
