Other mistake: When Julie stupidly distracts Ray during his fight with Willis, the hook misses Freddie Prinze Jr. by a mile. (01:29:00)
Other mistake: The article about Susie Willis' death misspells "Sheriff" ("sherriff") and is a loop of the same paragraphs over and over. So is the article with the obituary. (00:45:10)
Other mistake: The first article that Julie pulls up from her web search is supposedly about the local team, the Marlins, but it is in fact a patchwork of text from unrelated real-life articles dating to early April 1997, going from WNBA news to an actual murder case in Indianapolis. (00:45:00)
Other mistake: When Julie goes onto the boat to call the police, she sees a collection of newspaper articles and photos stuck to the wall. The photos, however, were taken earlier that same day. Unless they were printed from a colour printer on gloss paper the killer owned in between chasing all of them, there was not enough time to develop them and stick them up. (01:25:15)
Other mistake: After Barry (Ryan Phillippe) is put in the hospital, the four of them are talking about the murder and who tried to kill Barry. If you look at the door to Barry's room it is open - didn't anybody hear them talking about murders and a man with a slicker? (00:43:45)
Suggested correction: I mean... obviously not. I get it is not a real question but a rhetorical one, and that the idea is a tad ridiculous. However, you do see absolutely nobody in the corridor throughout the scene (even if the hospital looked fairly animated in the other shots), and they are not speaking super loudly. I think you can even see that Barry, as he mentions murder, peeks towards the door, which is a nice touch. I get the point of the entry, but I think the visual rendition of it is not that ludicrous.
Other mistake: When Ben gets run over, he has numerous bloody scars on his face, but near the end he only has one scar, going across the top of his right head to the bottom of his left face, no way he would only have one scar after a collision like that.
Other mistake: David Egan's obituary mentions that he was 28 when he died. When they go to see David's sister Missy, she says that he was Class of '92 at the high school. So that would make him 23 when he graduated, meaning he was born in 1969 instead of 1974. (00:45:00)
