Continuity mistake: The whole time sequence in the last part of the movie is messed up. After trying to nab the bad guys at the hotel, Tom Selleck goes home and puts his son to bed, then is called back in to work, and then the rest of the film is supposed to be the same evening, but it was already late night.
Runaway (1984)
Directed by: Michael Crichton
Starring: Tom Selleck, Kirstie Alley, Cynthia Rhodes, Gene Simmons
Factual error: Thompson wears moderately high heels in uniform and undercover. Unless she was working strictly in the office, she'd be required to wear tennis shoes or at least flats so she can run.
Luther: Drop it, sucker.
Ramsay: Congratulations, guys, you just staked out a roll of toilet paper.
Luther: I watch, I look, I listen. I'm watching you now.
Ramsay: Right. What's on your mind, Luther.
Luther: You're standing by the desk punching buttons on the console, trying to trace this call, which won't do shit! Because I'm calling from a mobile phone. Now you're looking around... Now you're cupping your hand over the receiver.
Ramsay: He's tapped into the closed-circuit TV.
