Directed by: Jon Amiel
Starring: Sean Connery, Ving Rhames, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Will Patton
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Gin and Mac are in the elevator, Mac puts in the keycard and presses 86. You then see the position indicator (PI) which shows the floor (70) in an LED, a red up arrow, and the words "EXECUTIVE FLOOR ACCESS GRANTED" in a red box. But when they are trying to escape, after Mac disengages the Door Hold button, you see that the PI has changed. It is all one colour and the floor number is written in a computer font. (01:22:15 - 01:28:45)
Continuity mistake: When Catherine Zeta-Jones practices with the bells and strings maze, she is careful to lift her left leg over one of the first strings, then brings her body through, and then brings her right leg over the string. Too bad when she does the heist of the mask for real, she lifts her left leg over the unseen laser beam but keeps her arms dangling as she brings her right leg over. This would have set off the alarm because she forgot to lift her arms over the laser beam!
Mac: Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive. But practice makes perfect.
Trivia: The street that Sean Connery is parked in waiting for Zeta-Jones to leave the antiques shop, is the same one that Hagrid and Harry walked down in the Philosopher's Stone when they are heading for the Leaky Cauldron.
Question: Is it actually possible to get on to a moving train as implied in the very last scene?

Answer: Unless the train stopped, it is absolutely impossible for someone, particularly a senior man and a woman in a tight skirt and high heels, to be able to jump onto a moving commuter train, and on one that would have automatic doors.

HA! A looser skirt and flat-heeled shoes wouldn't improve the odds.
