Directed by: Antoine Fuqua
Starring: Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke, Tom Berenger, Scott Glenn
Visible crew/equipment: When Ethan Hawke starts to chase Denzel Washington onto the roof of his wife's apartment, he climbs through the window. As Hawke is going through the window, you can clearly see a large stage light on a tripod, in the room behind him. (01:41:25)
Visible crew/equipment: When Jake is holding Alonzo at gunpoint in Sara's bedroom, the boom microphone appears for a few frames (immediately after Alonzo says, "It's not what you know. It's what you can prove"). (01:39:00)
Continuity mistake: Towards the end, Denzel drives his car into 2 cars trying to get Ethan off the hood. After that scene ends you see Denzel driving the same car and the front and rear of the car look nothing like they did when he was crashing into the cars.
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).

Answer: Alonzo is asking the three wise men for a search warrant for Roger's home, effectively giving him the go ahead to confiscate the money he is hiding there. The wise men are indeed corrupt, the search warrant is completely illegal.
