Other mistake: When Franklin is shown jogging up and down the sidewalk stairs, as the camera is facing towards the stairs from the top, tape can be seen where Franklin is supposed to stop at, and/or Gaerity is supposed to stand at while Franklin's going down the stairs.
Blown Away (1994)
1 other mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Stephen Hopkins
Starring: Tommy Lee Jones, Jeff Bridges, Forest Whitaker, Lloyd Bridges, Suzy Amis
Plot hole: The premise of the entire movie's main character, played by Jeff Bridges, is flawed, as it would be impossible for anyone to pass a major metropolitan police department's pre-employment screening background investigation for the position of police officer if that applicant uses a fake name and identity. Part of the investigation includes sending off the applicant's finger prints to the National Criminal Information Center, a polygraph test, a records check with vital statistics to verify place of birth, Dept. of Labor to verify past employment, Social Security Dept. and also interviewing (sometimes in person) your friends you've listed and your current and former neighbors of where you now live and use to live.
Ryan Gaerity: I've come here to create a new country for you called chaos, and a new government called anarchy.
Trivia: During the movie, mention is made in a background radio bulletin that Richard Kimble has been arrested - the subject of Tommy Lee Jones' prior film, 1993's The Fugitive.
