Corrected entry: When Lily hides out in the motel room, we see her place a silencer on her gun, but when she uses the gun on Mia, we still hear the blast.

Correction: In fact this is entirely realistic - 'silencers' are largely mythical and do not produce the fain 'sput.' of film legend. They will supress the noise of the gun leaving the barrel but not the explosive gases escaping from the breech, and a significant gunshot is still produced.

Continuity mistake: When Lilly gets up to leave after killing Roy, her legs are covered in blood. In the next shot, there is no blood on her legs as she descends the apartment elevator. (01:44:45 - 01:45:25)

Lilly Dillon: Well, sure, Roy. You want me to drive up -? Okay, fine, come on down. It won't be a home-cooked meal, you know.
Roy Dillon: Well, that's good news.
