Continuity mistake: Ashley Judd has just handcuffed the bad guy to the stove, Morgan Freeman walks in and has the little talk with the bad guy why not to light the lighter and blow up the room. Just when Morgan Freeman shoots the bad guy in the head, the bad guy flies back with BOTH arms visibly flying backwards. In the next shot with the bad guy dead, his hand is once again handcuffed to the stove. (01:50:30)
Kiss the Girls (1997)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Gary Fleder
Starring: Morgan Freeman, Cary Elwes, Ashley Judd, Tony Goldwyn, Alex McArthur
Cassanova is Det. Nick Ruskin (Cary Elwes), one of the local cops. Dr. William 'Will' Rudolph (who fatally shot LAPD officer Henry Castillo) is his partner in crime...and both having been helping each other kidnap all these girls. Both flee into the forests when Seth Samuel & Dr. Kate McTiernan help Dr. Alex Cross stumble across the duo's hideout. Cross gives chase and fires after them, hitting Will who bleeds to death out in the woods. Nick shows up at Kate's home, where both fight climaxing in Nick starting a gas leak then trying to ignight it with a lighter. Only for Cross to show up, his reasoning with Nick falls on deaf ears who carries on sparking his lighter. But Cross can't fire without the muzzle flare from his gun detonating the gas...so he cleverly fires through a carton of milk...into Nick's chest.

Question: The villain is driving off with Morgan Freeman running right behind him with a gun in his hand. Why didn't Freeman try and shoot the tyres? (01:10:00)

Answer: Shooting out of the tires on a fleeing vehicle is not a viable, realistic strategy. It is a movie cliche akin to shooting out a padlock or saving a hanging man by shooting the rope. It is not something people do in real life and it is therefore realistic that Morgan Freeman wouldn't attempt to do so in this film.
