Visible crew/equipment: When the bait hooker gets out of the car at the beginning of the movie, the lighting rig is reflected in the right car door. (00:01:55)
Continuity mistake: When Martina Lawrence calls the bulky carjacker on his side a "big Popeye chicken-eating motherf…," the gun popping in frame from the top is held by a left hand. When the scene is shot with the camera on Will Smith's side, the guy is holding his gun with the right hand. It switches again, left or right depending on the camera angle used. (00:02:35)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, Fouchet shoots the decoy cop with his gun. Once. The cop has two bullet wounds. (00:05:30)
Other mistake: When the bad guys are stealing the drugs and they use the spray to break the lock, they drag the chain off the bars, and if you look closely you can see part of the bar chip off and it's made of wood. (00:08:10)
Continuity mistake: When Marcus wakes up towards the beginning of the film, he knocks a Florida snowglobe and some other stuff off the top of his alarm clock. In the next shot, the snowglobe is back on top of the clock. (00:09:30)
Continuity mistake: In his first scene with Marcus and his wife, the lighting on them changes constantly between shots, and the same can be said for the position of Theresa Randle's hands on Martin Lawrence. (00:09:30)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film when Martin Lawrence is in bed with his wife, he wakes up on the left side of the bed and leans over turn the alarm off. The next shot he's on the right side of the bed and the alarm has moved to the right side too, he's reaching over to turn it off. (00:09:30)
Continuity mistake: When Marcus is trying to convince his wife to give him some in the morning so he can be lighter on his feet, Martin Lawrence is sprawled with his left arm over the pillows in close-up, but in the wider angle he is in a much more normal position with his arm by his torso. (00:10:10)
Continuity mistake: When Marcus is talking to his wife in bed about having some early morning sex, she gets up and he is leaning on his side. She tells him the kids will be coming any minute and when they do come bursting through the door, Marcus is now under the covers on his back. Given that we heard them approaching, there's no time for him to move. (00:10:25)
Continuity mistake: At the breakfast table, Marcus asks Mike, "Why you put me in this, man?" His son is picking a bit of food from the plate. The phone rings across the camera cut, and the sentence continues ("I'm with my babies"), but the kid's hand is off the table by his hip. He's back chewing on the food, with that hand raised only when, a few seconds later, the exact camera angle from before is used again. (00:11:35)
Continuity mistake: When Mike is being randomly racist against the two Hispanic cops in front of the police locker, Will Smith's hands are close to his body, thumbs up, and he is half a step behind Martin Lawrence. One of the cops answers him with a "yo mama" joke, but in the foreground Will Smith's hands are in a different position and Lawrence is more distant from him and slightly behind. (00:13:50)
Audio problem: When the Captain is on about the Heroin being stolen he says something along the lines of "we got nothing, and he left us a big f*** you". When he says "we got nothing" his mouth doesn't match the words on the audio. (00:14:25)
Continuity mistake: When Mike and Max are talking in the equipment room, the clock behind them reads 3:27:40 twice - once before and once after Marcus drops the weights on his chest. (00:16:55)
Continuity mistake: When Will and Martin are in Martin's car, just after they find the dead guy, watch the microphone hanging from the rear view mirror. Depending on the camera shot, it changes position. (00:20:00)
Continuity mistake: When Martin Lawrence is under the desk with the rotting corpse on top, on the couch behind him there is a document with a slight pink hue. The document is straight throughout the scene, except for the shot when Lawrence gets up, when it's tilted. (00:20:10)
Audio problem: When Mike and Marcus are driving in Marcus's car, just before they sing Bad Boys, in the shot over Mike's shoulder we see that what he is saying does not match the movement of his mouth. (00:22:40)
Suggested correction: But Will Smith is not speaking in that shot. Martin Lawrence is saying something corny ("I'm a baaad boy") that is the cue for the song. Smith is just mouthing under his breath.
Continuity mistake: When the two female characters enter the fancy hotel room, they make a point to say they will only be there for a couple of minutes. It is daylight when they go in. The visit is cut short (the one that's supposed to be a few minutes long) because of a gun battle in which one of the women dies and the other escapes. The escaped one gets out through the roof into an evening's sky. There's still light visible, but for a visit that lasts all of 4 minutes, it's far too quick a change. (00:23:00)
Continuity mistake: At the party scene in the early minutes of the movie, the bad guy who calls the two women to his place to "party" is shot once in the knee. Blood spurts and a gaping hole is made in his dark blue pant's leg by the bullet. Seconds earlier, the black hooker is shot three times. Where are the three gaping holes and blood on her solid white dress? Ah, there are none. (00:26:00)
Revealing mistake: When the two ladies go to the party relatively near the beginning, one goes off to the toilet. The other one gets shot (through the cushion) she then falls back on a coffee table which completely shatters before she even hits it. (00:26:10)
Continuity mistake: In the party scene, when Fouche shoots Eddie Dominguez, his collar goes from being buttoned all the way to the neck and then being opened as the scene goes back and forth between shots. (00:27:25)
