Continuity mistake: When Grace notices the doorknob of the interrogation room unlock itself, she walks over and turns the handle to the right. But in the next shot the door opens to the opposite way it should have, judging by the direction she turned the handle. (00:35:40)
Continuity mistake: When we see the dead bodies of Harlan and the policeman laying in the office as Lt. Esteridge is looking at them, you can clearly see the "dead bodies" breathing. (00:40:50)
Audio problem: When Jim and Grace steal the sheriff's car and drive out of the parking lot quickly, the tyres of the car squeal on the ground, however the ground is just dirt and dust so the tyres shouldn't have squealed. (00:45:55)
Continuity mistake: When Jim and Grace are driving away from the police in the stolen sheriff car, they are shot at and the back tailgate and left wing mirror are broken by gunshots. But in following shots you can see both parts of the car completely intact again, the broken, fixed, etc. (00:48:40)
Continuity mistake: In the scene when the police are chasing after Jim and Grace, Ryder suddenly pulls up and shoots one of the policemen. Then two of the cruiser cars collide and skid down the road. During this scene the metal barriers on the sides of the road keep disappearing then reappearing. (00:49:30)
Revealing mistake: When Jim and Grace are driving along in the stolen sheriff car, away from all the police cars and Ryder, the car's back window is shot and completely shatters and fragments. Yet in a following shot we see Jim look into the rearview mirror, and he gets a clear view of behind. The back window was shattered and cracked however, so he shouldn't have got that nice clear view. (00:50:20)
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the movie, when Jim and Grace break into the motel room to clean up and rest, they enter the window of unit 12, with the door to the right of unit 11. After Jim has left the room, and Grace is woken up, she leaves the room through the door, which we now see is unit 11, the door on the left.
Continuity mistake: Right after the initial fight scene in the car with John Ryder, after he is kicked out of the car, and Grace gets back into the front seat, she reaches behind her and locks the passenger door. In the next shot, when she is looking for her cell phone, the door lock is not depressed. Some older Cutlass 442's had lock barrels that were higher than normal, or were screwed on less than others, but this appears to be a fully extended lock barrel.
Factual error: During the police chase, the helicopter calls in a car approaching at speed behind the police cars, but he calls it a "late model Trans Am." The Trans Am is an early model at best, as it is a 79 to 81 second generation (of 4) Trans Am. A late model Trans Am would be more accurately described as one of the fourth generation models built until 2002, and look nothing like a 79 to 81, even from the air. It might be considered a character mistake, except that police are generally knowledgable about the make and style of cars from various years. If the pilot or passenger of the helicopter were able to identify it as a Trans Am, they should be able to identify it as an older model, not a late model.
Continuity mistake: After Ryder has destroyed all the police cruisers with his Trans Am, there is a shot from the police helicopter looking down at him driving. Ryder is wearing black gloves, but in the immediate next shot, they've now gone.
Factual error: When Jim is driving the car and slams on the breaks just before hitting Ryder, the car is thrown forward - during all these scenes, although it is very rainy and windy, the raindrops run down the windshield as if the car is stationary. If the car was driving at a very fast speed and it is windy, the raindrops should be blown upwards on the windshield.
