Ultraviolet

Continuity mistake: When Violet disassembles the AR-15, the buttstock is still in place. For the rest of the scene, the stock keeps reappearing and disappearing. (00:17:15)

Continuity mistake: When Violet jumps off of the building, she makes severe cracks in the concrete tiles. In the overhead shot with the dead guards, those cracks are gone. (00:20:25)

Continuity mistake: After Violet's hologram says: ''You won't have him.'', Daxus tries to punch her, but he only strikes air and thus keeps moving, and nearly trips. He then gets back up, and in the next shot he gets up again. (01:06:50)

Continuity mistake: Near the end of the film, Violet infiltrates the complex and makes her way into a white room with tons of men in white suits. She starts fighting them and when a couple of guys come at her, she moves quickly and one guy stabs the other in the chest. When she goes to elbow one of the guys in the face, watch his helmet, it comes flying off, revealing his head and hair. When the camera quickly changes to another angle, his helmet is on perfectly straight. (01:17:45)

Continuity mistake: Violet deflects the incendiary gel with her sword, covering the tip of it with the gel. For the rest of the fight, the gel is gone, but when Daxus closes the blinds, it reappears, only now covering the entire sword. (01:23:35)

Friso94

Continuity mistake: Daxus drops his gel gun, only to change it for a sword. But in the overhead shot of Violet and Daxus, the gel gun is nowhere to be seen. (01:23:50)

Friso94

Continuity mistake: When Violet holds her hand up to catch the sword, it's fine. But after she stabs the guard, both her hands are cut open in three directions. Also, she doesn't leave any blood on the sword itself.

Continuity mistake: Violet smashes a few of the guards arm-mounted armor platings, but these shards disappear, and are never seen on the floor.

Friso94

Continuity mistake: In the chapel fight, during the first attack, she decapitates a few of Nerva's men, and in the shot of Violet's back, you can see those heads flying through the air. But in the shot from above, all the men still have their heads, and no heads can be seen lying in the middle of the circle.

Friso94

Continuity mistake: When the guard with the customized AR-15 enters the room of the case, there are several guards directly behind him. However, Violet has plenty of time to disarm, kill him, and slowly turn around, upon which the guards reenter the room. It is not possible that they have been shot; the gun wasn't anywhere close to pointing at them.

Friso94

Continuity mistake: When Violet tries to shoot the guards of the case, we get a close up of Violet pulling the trigger, only to strike an empty chamber. You can see the normal safety pin, and another flat circle. But when she disassembles that same gun moments later, the flat circle has turned into a knob.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Violet and Six finally make it out of the building, they get into the black car with the door open. When Violet tells Daxis he's full of shit, she puts the car into drive to knock out the men behind her with the door closed. When she's done the door is again open.

Violet: Watch me.

More quotes from Ultraviolet

Trivia: The studio was unhappy with the first cut of the film, as it was more character-driven and would have got an R-rating, whereas they wanted a dumbed-down PG-13 action movie. The studio forcibly cut about 30 minutes of character and story development scenes out, and dumped it into theaters as quickly as possible. This forced the effects teams to use unfinished renders and animatics in many scenes, which explains why the effects are so bad... the studio didn't give them time to finish them.

Question: Why does Violet's hair change color? Is it a mood indicator or something?

Chosen answer: Her clothes also changes color, and so does the color of the clothes of the real XPD154. It's never fully explained, but it's probably a technological advancement from the future to change colors at will, whether it's bottled hair color or clothes.
