Revealing mistake: When our lead villain fires his shotgun at the cops behind the pipes, it lands in an almost perfectly square pattern instead of a more natural circle. The impacts look more like gaping exit wounds than where landed tiny pellets. The spread is also way too dense to miss the gaps that leave the cops exposed. (01:45:50)

Continuity mistake: In the film's final scenes at the fuel storage facility, full sunlight is streaming through the overhead rafters. Moments later, it's completely dark and the plant's floodlights are all turned on. A few shots further on, the lights are off and it's daylight again.
Verna Jarrett: I'd look good in a mink coat, honey.
Cody Jarrett: You'd look good in a shower curtain.
