Other mistake: Several close-ups of the business cards of Patrick Bateman and his associates reveal a misspelling of the word "Acquisitions" (the "c" is missing - not a small error, given that this is the name of their department). (00:18:35)

Suggested correction: The business cards seen in that scene are supposed to be bad. An expert on business cards once reviewed the scene for a YouTube video and pointed out many aesthetic flaws in them, including this one. The subtle joke is that Patrick and his friends are all pretentious and deluded, thinking they're masters of style while they can't even spell words right. This is more explicit in the book, where paying close attention to the clothing Bateman describes, people's outfits make no sense.
