Bad Boys

Continuity mistake: After the scene featuring pictures of Martin Lawrence with a big afro, Julia asks him how Marcus's wife is. She adds in a close-up that she must be pretty amazing. Look at her hand, palm against her cheek. That's not the pose she has in the next, wider shot. That's the pose she will get to a few seconds later when she says, "Watching him tonight," etc. (01:18:25)

Continuity mistake: Inside the suite, Julie takes a sip from Max's glass. Behind her, Eddie Dominguez giggles, "Watch your step." He rubs his already powdered nose, then touches the glass. Cuts to a wider angle, and Eddie is repeating the exact same movements - but Julie isn't. (00:25:00)

Continuity mistake: The Bad Boys enter the precinct, made into a crime scene, through an overhead shot. To their left as they come in, a cop in a suit with fair, curly hair makes a turn around a desk corner. It cuts to Will Smith saying, "Hey bay-beh!" tapping Francine's desk. A different cop is behind them, then it cuts to a wider shot with Martin Lawrence in a more subdued greeting, and the same cop from the first shot does the same turn as before. (00:12:10)

Marcus Burnett: Oh, man, that was cold.
Detective Sanchez: Yeah, so was your mama's bed.

Trivia: Pretty much all of the dialog between Martin Lawrence and Will Smith was ad-libbed. The original script can be found here: http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Bad-Boys.html, as Don Simpson and Jerry Buckheimer thought it would be better and more funny.
