Revealing mistake: When B-Rad and Shoundra are driving on the highway, right after B-Rad says, "I've been down with the brizzown all my life." the highway that they are driving on has a turn that you can see all the cars go through, including B-Rad's car, but B-Rad doesn't turn the steering wheel.

Audio problem: During the scene where B-Rad has to rob the liquor store, the store owner and his wife and kid come out with guns pointed at B-Rad. The kid comes out with a shotgun and a cocking sound is heard even though he doesn't cock it.

Continuity mistake: When the maid is serving B-Rad food on an outside table, she picks up the can of Pepsi and pours it into the glass. Then she puts the can back down with the Pepsi label facing away from the camera. In the next shot, the can is turned around so the label is facing the camera. The ice changes in this scene as well.

Continuity mistake: When B-Rad is rapping, he turns around and everyone sees his rear end. As soon as he turns back around to face the crowd, you see that his rear end is covered up again.

Continuity mistake: When B-Rad shoots the Uzi's at the other gang when he is on top of the car, before he starts shouting at them you see all the gangsters take cover behind their cars, in the 2-3 shots before he starts shouting. But in the last shot there is a gangster out in the open right beside the car crawling backwards.

Visible crew/equipment: Just after the deal is set up for the two fake gangsters, the actors walk over to their SUV. If you look in the reflection around the grill, you can see the camera crew moving around.

Sir William

Audio problem: In the end when Brad introduces his father in front of all those people as the governor, he says, "Go Gluck Yourself". As he says this, the microphone in his hand is in the air, but it sounds as if he did speak into the microphone.

T Poston

Revealing mistake: In the scene where you see the dad taking to everyone after he crashes into the house, you see him telling everyone how they shouldn't use guns to solve their problems but if you look closely at the time he starts talking, you can see one of the actual gangsters point their gun right at him a little later then the rest of the other people.

Continuity mistake: When Jin is in the hotel and is about to kill Jae Lee, he holds a pillow to Lee's head and presses his gun against it. At first, the gun is pointing to Lee's cheekbone, but when it cuts to Lee as he is sobbing "I'm sorry. I'm sorry", the gun is much lower, and pointing to his throat. Cut back to Jin, and you can see the gun is once again pointing to Lee's face. There was no time for Jin to move it between shots, and Lee did not move nearly enough to cause this changes.

Deliberate mistake: When Sean James is reading 'The A-Z of Hip Hop' he reads 'whack' and 'dis' and their meanings out loud without turning the pages. The letters 'W' and 'D' are nowhere near each other in the English alphabet.

Continuity mistake: When B-Rad gets car jacked, his friends are fighting with yo' momma jokes. First they are standing across a table, but in the next shot they are right next to each other, close enough to push each other.

Plot hole: How come B-rad doesn't recognize the actors? They are from B-rad's dad's commercials but B-rad doesn't acknowledge it whatsoever.

Other mistake: When Tec is making the ransom call for B-Rad, the Mexicans show up and start shooting. Tec's friend ducks and starts to run before the shots are fired.

Revealing mistake: Towards the end, when the bazooka blows up the house and everyone is running frantically, you can easily tell that Mr. Gluckman's Hummer is a cut-out prop, not a real one.

Tec: Grab Fatback! I got Milkdud.
PJ: I'm soft.

Question: Is there a reason the dumpster they threw B-Rad in was full of Wonderbread and nothing else?

Answer: "Wonderbread and whitebread" are derogatory terms used to describe a white man. It can be mean or good-natured, like most put-downs.
