Factual error: When Eddie and Jack are in the ambulance you see a curtain over the window behind Jack. This would be a MAJOR infection control/sterility issue and therefore no ambulances have curtains, especially linen.

Continuity mistake: When Mosely is first transporting Eddie in his car and stops to buy a bottle of alcohol. The first hit is attempted on Eddie but as Mosely exits the store he shoots the hitman from behind. Watch closely as the camera does it's 360 around Mosely. His gun, a Glock, is jammed. It appears to have either a shell stuck in the chamber or it's just a mistake by the props department, they forgot to close it completely. Glocks fire from a closed chamber, then they eject the shell, load another and close the chamber again, in a single movement. It should be closed after he has fired the shot. When the camera comes back to Mosely after a slow look around the street, he is being fired upon by a second hitman. The gun chamber is now closed and ready to fire again. (00:12:45)
Jack Mosley: Never met your sister?
Eddie Bunker: No.
Jack Mosley: Wow.
Eddie Bunker: So I'm going out to Seattle to meet her. I'm looking forward.
Jack Mosley: Maybe she turns out to look like Angelina Jolie.
Eddie Bunker: Shit, if she do, I hope she ain't my sister.
Trivia: The final film directed by the legendary Richard Donner. While Donner had planned to direct several films after, none of them came together before he passed away in 2021 at the age of 91.
