Continuity mistake: When the two unlikely heroes arrive in front of Scully's place, the sun is just below the postbox in the opening shot, but when they are walking to the door, the whole front is in shadow, the sun being behind the house. (01:02:20)

Continuity mistake: The dynamic duo does a U turn in front of the bowling and parks behind Scully. New shot and the light changes (look at the shadow the car was projecting during the wide shot) and a new car is passing in the street. (00:56:55)

Continuity mistake: Costas pays (with his pal's money) for the cookies from the kid and signs for sending the whole package to the colleague. As he trips on the boxes, the kid has suddenly straightened the pile he has in his arms. (00:13:35)

Continuity mistake: When Tex Cobb is facing Pat Morita in the bowling brawl stalking him by the table dividers, Cobb has the right hand raised in guard when seen from the front, but from behind his arm is lowered. (00:59:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At the club where they are eating ribs, Costas at one point says "Oh great" showing a broken toothpick. But the previous image shown was a close-up and he was browsing pictures with that hand. (01:17:15)

Continuity mistake: Pat Morita is searching the room of the deceased Oshima. In a close-up he flips a sheet on top of the one with car schematics, but he's holding the sheets together in the next. (00:19:00)

Continuity mistake: Madras is having lunch when Derek Jarryd sits at his table and passes him today's paper. He grabs it and holds it by the bottom right corner; in close-up he is holding it mid-page. (00:34:50)

Sammo

Other mistake: Costas' junkyard buddy gets shot in the chest, but opening enough of the bodybag merely to see his face, he is able to tell what sort of weapon killed him. (00:15:45)

Continuity mistake: Inside Inspector Ryerson's office, Costas picks up the phone. Leno in the close-up is holding the receiver with two hands, one before and after. (00:26:10)

Revealing mistake: A brawl in the bowling alley erupts, started by Tex Cobb tossing on the ground a bad Jay Leno stunt double (hair color does not even match). (00:58:40)

Continuity mistake: Fujitsuka's boss passes him 3 pictures. They are all lined up together in the close-up, but in the reverse shot they are spread out. (00:07:00)
