Revealing mistake: The passenger of a taxi opens the taxi door, which an officer on the bike then collides with. If you look at the passenger, he never takes a look behind him to see the officer, but still quickly moves back into the taxi as if he knew that the officer was about to hit the taxi door.

Revealing mistake: When the officer on the bike chases Wilee, the door to a taxi opens and the officer collides with the door. You can see that the window had been removed from the door to make sure the actor doesn't get injured. It certainly wasn't rolled down because the frame isn't even there. (00:18:00)

Casual Person

Revealing mistake: After the officer collides with the taxi door, Wilee tries to think which route to take. The second one he thinks up is him ending up hitting a jogger and the jogger getting run over by a van. It's noticeable they used a dummy. Notice how the body flips over, completely unrealistically.

Visible crew/equipment: At 5:17pm, after Manny asks Wilee to bike ride with him in Central Park, Wilee is seen driving through traffic. There is one shot where he rides past a silver Ford. Behind the silver Ford is a taxi, and if you look carefully, you'll see a boom mic reflected on the car. It can't be a lamp post, because the item on top is too big and super fluffy to be a lamp post. This is only visible for a split second and visible just as the taxi becomes out of frame as the camera pans around Wilee. (00:07:45)

Raj: What is it with this envelope? People love it, they hate it, they gotta have it, they gotta get rid of it. It's like cigarettes or Democrats.

Question: During the chase scene at the impound lot, Wilee is chased by a cop onto a high platform and another cop climbs on top of the platform. To avoid the other cop, Wilee jumps off the platform with his bike. In a sudden close-up of Wilee, a slash sound is heard. What is this slash sound I am hearing? (01:11:40)

Chosen answer: I think that sound is the front wheel giving way. If you look closely, you can see that his front wheel is wobbling a little as he escapes. This may be why he ditches his bike and steals the cop's bike soon after.
