Directed by: Ben Affleck

Other mistake: Claire Keesey the bank manager has the birthday May 19, 1978, making her age 30. That doesn't align with the crime witness date for 9/2011 - she should be 33. (02:41:15)
Other mistake: When robbing the bank at the beginning of the movie, Claire is somehow about to see the tattoo on the back of Gem's neck while he is standing, and she's lying on the floor looking up.
Plot hole: When Claire is getting interviewed at the FBI building, there's pics of inside the bank during the robbery, even though the security tapes were destroyed in the microwave.
Claire Keesey: Did you say your name was Jim or Gem?
James Coughlin: Well, huh, it's kinda both. The teachers use to always say, "Here take this one. He's a gem."
Question: Toward the end of the movie, one of the gang members visits a barber shop and picks up a small bag of cut hair swept from the floor. I cannot remember any follow-up to this scene showing how or where this cut hair was used. I have asked several people who have seen the movie and no one seems to know what happened to this hair. Was there any follow-up to this scene or did I blink and miss the part that shows what they did with it?

Answer: The bag of hair from the barbershop was used to throw off the police when they search the getaway car later. In other words they will find all the scattered hair and have the wrong DNA. This is what they do after the second heist. They never used one at the end since the cops already knew who they were.
