Continuity mistake: Cruised is mobbed by some guys and stumbles towards the blue car's trunk. When the angle changes he is half a metre behind, next to the passenger's window.
Continuity mistake: When Tom Cruise is going to return the costume, he walks up the stairs to the apartment building and enters when a person leaving the building opens the door. The next shot is then him walking into the Rainbow store, which is next to the building.
