Continuity mistake: The warden attempts to trap Ricky by pushing a table at him. On the table there is a tray filled with meat from when the warden forced an inmate's arm into a meat grinder earlier in the scene. In the shot where he first pushes the table, the meat in the tray is towards the right hand corner of the tray. Ricky then jumps over the table and the meat is now towards the left hand side.

Continuity mistake: In the final fight scene, there is a moment where Ricky punches straight through the warden's stomach and punches out through the other side. The shot then cuts to the warden for a second, but when the shot cuts again, Ricky's arm has suddenly been completely removed from the warden's stomach. No way could Ricky have removed his entire arm from the warden's stomach that quickly. (01:27:33)

Continuity mistake: When the assistant warden starts searching Ricky's cell, he opens the two doors to the toilet stall to see if he is in there. Whilst Ricky jumps down from the ceiling, the assistant warden has the left door on the toilet stall held open and the right door on the toilet stall closed. When he notices Ricky in the next shot, the left door on the toilet stall is now closed and the right door on the toilet stall is now wide open. (01:19:09)

Continuity mistake: When the assistant warden and the bald inmate are walking down the corridor towards the end, two inmates from inside their cells put their hands on the bars of the cell doors to see what is happening. The inmate standing on the left has both of his hands on the bars and the inmate standing on the right has both hands on the row of bars positioned below where the inmate standing on the left has his hands. When the camera changes angles, the inmate standing on the left no longer has his hands on the bars and the inmate standing on the right now has his hands positioned on two separate rows of bars.

Continuity mistake: When Ricky is being tortured by the warden, after the warden removes the tape covering his mouth, Ricky spits out some blood as many of the razors inside his mouth. The razors that were shown sticking out of his cheeks are not shown moving, but after it cuts to the warden with some of the razors stuck to his face, the shot cuts back to Ricky and the razors in his cheeks are no longer there. Even the ones that weren't shown being spat out. (01:16:40)
