Deliberate mistake: Before Nathan and Karen jump out of Dr. Bennett's car, Dr. Bennett's car is shown taking a sharp turn (close to 90°) and then speeding down the short but steep road. At a high speed, the car should have reached the level road within a second or two. However, Dr. Bennett talked to Nathan and Karen for a longer period of time. When the next exterior view of the car was shown, it was just reaching the intersection and straightaway. The car should have traveled a much greater distance than shown. (00:44:50 - 00:45:59)
Abduction (2011)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: John Singleton
Starring: Alfred Molina, Maria Bello, Taylor Lautner, Lily Collins, Jake Andolina, Ken Arnold, Oriah Acima Andrews
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Nathan asks Mara if she is his mother and receives the call from Karen, daylight is visible out the window. However, in the span of time it takes Mara to go downstairs to get Kevin, and Karen to rush across the street, the scene is suddenly dark and night.
Gilly: Dude, I can't believe how mainstream you guys are.
Trivia: Nathan and Karen were spotted traveling on the "Fourth Street Bridge." The odds of being on a bridge when fleeing the city of Pittsburgh (movie's primary setting) are quite high - there are 446 bridges in Pittsburgh, the greatest number of any other city in the world. [Venice, Italy previously held the record with 443 bridges.] Perhaps not surprisingly, Pittsburgh is nicknamed "The City of Bridges."
