Corrected entry: When Dorian is the Mask, he gets shot exactly 8 times, but he spits 15 bullets.

Correction: He is shot more than 8 times. The other guy's men (sorry, I don't know his name) are also shooting at him. True, the other guy shoots him 8 times, but we don't know how many times his men shoot him.

Correction: Because Dorian was wearing the mask, he can fire off as many bullets as he wants without ever needing to stop at a certain point.

Corrected entry: When Ipkiss escapes from jail, he handcuffs himself to the cop. While he is driving to the club, you can see that they are no longer handcuffed. It's a pretty big mistake considering that the cop says "get these handcuffs off of me" when you can see that they aren't on him.

Josh Appelbaum

Correction: It is probably because he handcuffed him to part of the car, not to himself.

Video

Revealing mistake: When The Mask is dancing with Tina and he turns her into a human tornado while spinning her around, none of the onlookers in the crowd show the slightest bit of amazement at the impossible feat that just occurred in front of them, indicating that the extras were not directed to react to the special effects.

Trivia

Trivia: The Mask is based off the Dark Horse Comic of the same name. The only difference is that Dark Horse Comics carry a lot of dark tones in their comics. When Chuck Russell was directing The Mask, it was supposed to be set in that way. When Jim Carrey was given the role of Stanley Ipkiss, it was turned into a comedy.

Questions

Question: Why is the Character of Lt. Kellaway (Peter Riegert) so grumpy and cynical? What's up with him? Why didn't he thank Stanley Ipkiss at the end of the movie for saving their lives?

Answer: I think that the reason he is so grumpy and cynical is because he has been a police detective for SO long that all the crime he's investigated has made him jaded. I think that it is the same with any regular human being, one can only do the same thing day in and day out for so long before it affects you, negatively. Plus his home life may have been a contributing factor also. As to why he didn't thank Stanley, maybe he just didn't like him.

Alan Keddie

Answer: That is just in his character, some people are miserable, cynical by nature. It could be from outside influence as well, like having been a cop too long, crappy marriage, hemorrhoids.
