Swimming with Sharks

Character mistake: When Guy and his girlfriend are discussing why he loves the movies and how they help him remember important times in his life, Guy makes a reference to the obscure 1979 basketball movie The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh, and says how he loved Gabe Kaplan in it. Gabe Kaplan was never in The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh, but did star in a different obscure basketball movie from 1979 called Fast Break.

Character mistake: In the scene where Frank Whaley and his friends are eating in the restaurant he is telling a story about Shelley Winters. He says that she pulled three Oscars that she had won from a bag. Shelley Winters has won only two Oscars. (00:00:55 - 00:02:00)

Revealing mistake: While torturing Buddy, Guy puts a CD on and hits play. Clearly the CD display says "DISC" the sign that the CD is invalid or blank, yet the dubbed music begins to play.
