Revealing mistake: In the car chase, the stunt ramps on the ground so that both cars can easily race over the curbs instead of destroying their wheels. (01:20:20)
Jack Reacher (2012)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Christopher McQuarrie
Starring: Tom Cruise, Richard Jenkins, Rosamund Pike, Werner Herzog
Continuity mistake: At the end of the bar fight when the cops are pulling up to the scene, a shot from inside one of the cop cars shows it passing the blue pickup truck and getting close to Reacher and Sandy. In the next shot from Reacher's perspective, both cop cars are much further away.
James Barr: There's this guy. He's a kind of cop, at least he used to be. He doesn't care about proof, he doesn't care about the law, he only cares about what's right. He knows what I did. You can't protect me. No one can.
Trivia: A point in the score from this, by Joe Kraemer, inspired The Batman's signature motif by Michael Giacchino. After the phone call between Jack and Helen when he warns her potentially not to trust her father, he's driving across a bridge and the music is almost identical to the "bom...bombom...bom" theme from The Batman.
