Revealing mistake: In the iconic Big Kahuna burger scene, Brett gets shot in the shoulder, a normally highly debilitating injury.

Continuity mistake: After Fabienne asks Butch about his hard day at the office, Butch turns away from the hotel room window and starts walking towards the bed. But in the next shot his head is facing the window once again. (01:15:55)
