Continuity mistake: When the two female characters enter the fancy hotel room, they make a point to say they will only be there for a couple of minutes. It is daylight when they go in. The visit is cut short (the one that's supposed to be a few minutes long) because of a gun battle in which one of the women dies and the other escapes. The escaped one gets out through the roof into an evening's sky. There's still light visible, but for a visit that lasts all of 4 minutes, it's far too quick a change. (00:23:00)
Bad Boys (1995)
Directed by: Michael Bay
Starring: Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Joe Pantoliano, Tchéky Karyo, Téa Leoni, Theresa Randle, Emmanuel Xuereb, Lisa Boyle, Michael Taliferro
Continuity mistake: When Marcus Burnett drops Julie Mott off at Mike Lowery's apartment it's dark outside. When he leaves shortly after, there is daylight outside.
Plot hole: Why was $100,000,000 worth of heroin sitting in the police vault all this time before the bad guys stole it? Wouldn't the DEA have taken possession of the drugs long before that?
Trivia: Pretty much all of the dialog between Martin Lawrence and Will Smith was ad-libbed. The original script can be found here: http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Bad-Boys.html, as Don Simpson and Jerry Buckheimer thought it would be better and more funny.
Marcus Burnett: Oh, man, that was cold.
Detective Sanchez: Yeah, so was your mama's bed.
Mike Lowrey: You know you drive almost slow enough to drive Miss Daisy.
Marcus Burnett: You see what happens when you go off without me? You get into shit.
Mike Lowrey: Oh please, like shit don't happen when you're there.
Marcus Burnett: That - that ain't the point.
