Audio problem: During the failed kidnapping attempt at the mall, Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made for Walking" is playing over the mall sound system, and the song is badly edited to extend it for the duration of the scene. In the actual song, Nancy Sinatra famously says, "Are you ready, boots? Start walkin'!" only once. But, in this movie's chopped-up version, she says it twice.
The Mexican (2001)
1 audio problem - chronological order
Directed by: Gore Verbinski
Starring: Brad Pitt, Gene Hackman, Julia Roberts, J.K. Simmons, James Gandolfini, Michael Cerveris, Sherman Augustus
Continuity mistake: When Julia Roberts has thrown all of Brad Pitt's clothes out of the apartment you can see that they change. At first some are in the suitcase and some are on the ground. Then all of them are on the ground. Then back to some in the suitcase. It changes throughout the entire scene.
Jerry: Baby, what are you doing?
Samantha: You said this was your last job, Jerry.
Jerry: What do you want me to say? I'm sorry, I can't, the old lady wants me to quit. Fuck off.
Samantha: Yes! Something like that. Like exactly.
Jerry: I'm not in insurance, sweetie.
