Directed by: Ted Demme
Starring: Eddie Murphy, Martin Lawrence, Bernie Mac, Nick Cassavetes, Obba Babatunde
Revealing mistake: When Claude and Ray are at the retirement home getting ready for bed, as Ray lifts up his shirt you will see where it looks like he's wearing a fat suit underneath. He can also be seen pulling it down to his waist.
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Claude and Ray are arguing about the loss of the appeal and Ray calls Claude "soft", watch as Claude swings the first punch of the fight, his fist misses Ray's face. This is even more obvious in slow motion.
Continuity mistake: When Ray and Claude are going to bed in the retirement home, Ray tells Claude that he's going to put his wet sheets on him when he's sleeping. If you look closely Claude starts laughing really hard, but he's not supposed to.
Claude Banks: Oh yard boy, Mrs. Myrtle could use some attention - perhaps some fertilizer would restore its exuberance. Get yo ass to work.
Trivia: Fun to spot - In the scene where Eddie Murphy is fighting the big guy, after a while he says, "I know a bitch named Della who hit harder than you." Here, he is referring to Della Reese, whom he fought with in Harlem Nights.
Question: Why does Biscuit try to run right before he's let out? Why does he say he can't go home to his mama?
Answer: It wasn't in the script for him the die - the actor who played Biscuit went into a interview and said that he improv that scene the letter he opened up was initially was an call log not an release paper and he stated if his character was going to die he wanted him to die by crossing the gun line.

Answer: Because he is gay. In the time this movie is set, being homosexual was not only an extreme moral and religious taboo, but it was illegal in most parts of the US. Biscuit is too ashamed of letting his mother find out about his relationship with Jangle Leg, so he runs, knowing the guards will shoot him dead.
