Continuity mistake: When Richard Gere is driving through the city in his Corvette convertible, he starts with the top down, then you see the car with the hard top bolted on, then again without.

Continuity mistake: When Dennis is talking to Raymond's wife at the restaurant, as he's watching from across the street, her hands under her chin change from one to both as the view changes from across the street to inside the restaurant.

Factual error: When officer Van is shot with a shotgun his body is lifted off the ground and knocked several feet backward. One of the basic laws of physics states for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The amount of energy required to lift and move an adult man would be tremendous and the person firing the gun would have been subjected to the same force.

Revealing mistake: When officer Van is shot with a shotgun there is one shot in which he flies backwards towards the camera in slow motion. From this point of view the launchpad (catapult), from which the officer is thrown, is visible underneath his feet.

Continuity mistake: As Kathleen gets home towards the end, she unbuttons her blouse as she walks into the bathroom to turn on the shower. She then turns around after turning on the water and her blouse is buttoned back up.

Dennis Peck: How many cops you know, huh? Got nothing. Divorced, alcoholic, kids won't talk to them anymore, can't get it up. Sitting there in their little apartments, alone in the dark, playing lollipop with a service revolver?
