Factual error: Ivan Danko's police uniform is a combination of at least six different uniforms. His hat is a Moscow Commander's Special and he also wears a Parade Band Musician axelbant.
Red Heat (1988)
Directed by: Walter Hill
Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, James Belushi, Peter Boyle, Jim Belushi, Ed O'Ross
Continuity mistake: When Danko punches out the man hassling him when he's sat in the car, the man falls left out of shot next to the car, but when Ridzik comes back, the man is now quite a distance away from the car.
Revealing mistake: After the shootout in the hotel, the police photograph the bodies of the dead cleanheads. The flash of the camera causes the "dead" men's eyes to blink slightly.
Trivia: When Schwarzenegger and Belushi are in the diner after shooting the transvestite, Belushi is going through the paperwork that needs to be done. The one sheet which is shown Belushi says is an "accident report". Actually typed at the top of the paper is "Worthless Document Case Report". (01:09:40)
Art Ridzik: Oh, great. We got a pro basketball team coming toward us - with guns.
Viktor Rostavili: We both have our codes, Vanya. Yours, one of the State. Mine, one of thieves.
Viktor Rostavili: I thought you might be more reasonable. Money has a way of doing that to a man. But no, I don't think so. Not with you. You are one of those types of Soviets who only looks forward to death. I know you well, Vanya. Without me, you don't even exist.
