Other mistake: In the scene near the end when Jackie drives the big truck through the house, there are explosions everywhere, in solid concrete, and huge sparks from tiny wires. And when did thin wood pieces like the wooden tower/pavilion outside start to explode? Nothing modern or metallic was placed on this pavilion, so that can't explain the explosions.

Directed by: Henry Wolfond
Starring: Jackie Chan, Harvey Atkin, Jan Smithers, Mike MacDonald, Joe Silver
Genres: Comedy
Revealing mistake: When being chased down the street and Jackie is in the horse carriage, he throws a guy through a window. You can see the glass has been pre shattered and therefore easier to break.
Trivia: Because of the wreckage the film team had left in its wake, Jackie Chan is forbidden to film in Melbourne again.
Question: Why do the bad guys want the video tape that they are after?
Answer: TV Reporter Diane, played by Gabrielle Fitzpatrick, and her crew film the drug deal between the mob boss and the street gang.
Answer: The cocaine deal, that had gone bad, between the mob and gang. They were afraid it would be turned into the police.

How did the video get recorded in the first place?
The two reporters, Diana and Richard, were hiding above and filming it. After the shootout there's a explosion which exposes them. The mob boss sees them and tells his men to go after them.
