Directed by: Antoine Fuqua
Starring: Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke, Tom Berenger, Scott Glenn
Revealing mistake: The streets and the sidewalks are always wet, despite the fact that it's sunny the whole time.
Suggested correction: Sometimes there are many minutes, or even an hour, in between scenes that would have passed in universe. More than enough time for a quick rainstorm to roll through off camera.
Continuity mistake: After visiting the Sandman's Wife's house Harris's car is shot at and two bullet holes are made in the rear window. A couple of scenes later the car is seen driving through "the jungle" and the window is as good as new.
Alonzo Harris: It's not what you know, it's what you can prove.
Trivia: The scene at the start of the movie where Ethan meets Denzel in the diner - it is the same diner that is used in the movie "Seven," where Morgan Freeman meets with Gwyneth Paltrow. If you watch these two scenes, you can see exactly the same camera angles (i.e. the cook cracking eggs onto the hot stove).
Question: When Denzel and Ethan go to visit the Spanish gangsters towards the end and Denzel gives the presents, Is the money inside the blender for them to kill Ethan's character or simply he owed some money? If then the money wasn't for them to kill him what reason did they have to kill him?
Chosen answer: The money to kill Hawke was in the kitchen appliance box.
