1 revealing mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Lee Tamahori
Starring: Nicolas Cage, Julianne Moore, Jessica Biel, Thomas Kretschmann
Continuity mistake: After Cris pretends to be killed by the sniper, the terrorist tries to make a call, in the close ups he uses a Nokia 1100 but in the other shots looks like a different phone.
Cris Johnson: I've seen every possible ending. None of them are good for you.
Trivia: The Korean woman whom Cris calls up during his magic act is actually the real-life wife of Nicolas Cage.
Question: I don't get the joke Chris told Liz in the cabin motel about the Zen master that ordered a hotdog with everything. What was funny?
Chosen answer: The Zen master tells the hotdog vendor to "Make me one with everything," a pun, of sorts, on the Zen philosophy of becoming one with the universe.
