Plot hole: In the cafe scene after the fingerprints have been identified as belonging to someone who was thought to have been killed, Jean Reno tells Vincent Cassel that the person who shot at him had all ten fingers. How did he know that? The audience only sees one hand which is holding the pistol and the other hand is out of sight.

The Crimson Rivers (2000)
1 plot hole - chronological order
Directed by: Mathieu Kassovitz
Starring: Jean Reno, Vincent Cassel, Dominique Sanda, Nadia Fares
Revealing mistake: When Jean Reno and Vincent Cassel approach the hanging body of Jean-Pierre Cassel in the doctor's house, the hooded killer can be seen standing to the left of the screen. [Not visible on the VHS version, but on the widescreen DVD].
Max Kerkerian: Supercop scared of a little pooch? Son of a bitch.
Trivia: Director Mathieu Kassovitz has two cameo appearances in the film, one as the hooded killer in the doctor's house who shoots at Jean Reno and another as the voice over the CB talking about the Lada car to Vincent Cassel. He was also supposed to have played the role of a policeman in this film but the character was dropped.
