Plot hole: Kate suspects Vail, searches his bag and finds receipts for two burner phones. She holds him at gunpoint and finds the burner phone in his pocket! So, what we have here is a veteran CIA agent who discards neither his "burner" phones nor their receipts! Does he even know the meaning of the word "burner"? Does anyone involved in the making of this film know?
The Bricklayer (2023)
Directed by: Renny Harlin
Starring: Aaron Eckhart, Clifton Collins Jr., Nina Dobrev
Plot hole: At the 0:36:00 scene, Vail explains to Kate that Radek was the CIA's hitman, having killed a smuggler called Boris Popov on the CIA's order. Except Kate knew. She relayed the same info to Vail at the 0:06:55 scene.
Continuity mistake: Final shootout: Agent Bannon (Kate) shoots Agent Delson (Tye) in the head, dead center of the forehead. When Vail checks on Agent Delson moments later, the bullet hole is off-center to the right. (01:36:05 - 01:46:40)
Vail: If you understood everything I said, you'd be me... Miles Davis.
