Tiger Claws picture

Continuity mistake: When Cynthia Rothrock acts as a bait for the maniac at the beginning of the movie, she is walking down the nice and brightly lit slums in black high heels. A fight ensues, and she kicks him around wearing black sneakers (after her triple roundhouse she strikes a pose in a wide shot and it's very noticeable). Her incompetent partner joins in late, and she walks out on him wearing high heels again. (00:01:55)

Sangatsu no raion picture

Continuity mistake: In the first meeting with the man with the hat, Ice puts one foot on the portable cooler, but the position of the foot on the floor changes when there's a cut. Even more obvious, when she steps in front of him, the tip of her red stilettos touch his feet, but at the cut their tips are distant, and she moves in with her right foot first, as opposed as before. (00:09:15)
