Ichi the Killer

Deliberate mistake: There is no way Ichi's blade could have cut the one man vertically in half, as shown in the movie. The blade is only a couple of inches long, not nearly enough to slice through the man. When we see the blade shooting through the back of him, it is obviously a different, longer blade.

Deliberate mistake: When Suzuki has the boiling oil poured over his body, his skin doesn't react quite realistic. You only see it scar up a little bit, when realistically, the heat would be melting the skin right off.

Visible crew/equipment: When Kakihara and Karen are walking up the stairs at the apartment building and the camera is following them, you can make out the shadow of the cameraman on the actors and the walls several times.

Ichi: Did... you really want me to rape you, Miss Tachibana?
Karen: Oh, no. I didn't want it from you. I wanted it from anyone. The only thing that can help me now is despair.
