Continuity mistake: On the plane the drug is put into a broken banana half, but when it's time to jump out of the plane Amy is given a whole banana.
Suggested correction: I think it's safe to say they either put the banana halves back together to help hide the pill or erred on the side of caution and gave two doses in a second banana.
Continuity mistake: When Dr. Ross meets her boss at the cart, as they walk towards the large building, the sunlight on the building changes between shots. (00:06:10)
Amy: Amy good gorilla.
Question: What exactly does Richard die from? In a matter of seconds, he goes from running full-speed and screaming for help, only to suddenly fall over dead once he reaches Elliot. If it was from internal injuries, wouldn't it take longer for him to succumb to them, especially with how mobile he was shown to be?
Answer: Seconds after he drops dead, an ape comes from where he'd been running from and throws a human brain at the living humans. This is Richard's brain, torn from his head. In the context of the film and employing a (fair) bit of suspension of disbelief, he must have had enough brain stem (where reflexes are governed) left to run and scream a bit before dropping dead. In reality, of course, this is an extremely unlikely if not impossible scenario, invented by the screenwriter for the purposes of a gruesome death. Perhaps inspired by stories like Mike the Headless Chicken, an animal which survived for months after having most of its head/brain chopped off.
