Corrected entry: When Stallone calls Sharon Stone from a public phone, he doesn't put any money in the phone; the same when he boards a bus - he doesn't pay there, either.
The Specialist (1994)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Luis Llosa
Starring: Sylvester Stallone, James Woods, Sharon Stone, Rod Steiger
Factual error: In the first few minutes, right before the explosion of the car with the little girl, Stallone is running like mad to disarm the bombs (on the pillars of the bridge). However, he isn't fast enough, and the last bomb explodes. The trick is that the bombs are just chunks of TNT, planted about eyeheight, but when the bomb explodes, the flames and stuff go upwards (not reaching/hurting Stallone, who is about 3 meters up and at the exact height of the last bomb).

Trivia: The cat that "found" Ray Quick, Sylvester Stallone, in the movie was named Timer, even though we never hear anyone calling the cat that.
