Character mistake: 2 men are watching the cameras with Bishop rolling away from the exploding truck. One man says to watch camera 2, but they are actually showing 1 in the upper left corner.
The Mechanic (2011)
1 character mistake
Directed by: Simon West
Starring: Donald Sutherland, Jason Statham, Ben Foster, Tony Goldwyn
Revealing mistake: While Bishop and Steve McKenna are practicing with various firearms, a slow-motion shot in the film of Steve shooting a .50 caliber rifle shows that, while the sequence depicts him firing "live" rounds, the extracted shell casing is from a "Blank" cartridge (evidenced by the crimped forward portion of the brass casing). (00:34:15)
Arthur Bishop: Good judgment comes from experience, experience comes from bad judgment.
