Continuity mistake: In the final battle scene between Geena Davis and Craig Beirko, Beirko's character slashes Davis' character across the stomach (upper right hand side). In the next shot, the wound is located on the lower left side and in a subsequent shot, the wound has multiplied to become two wounds: one in the upper right hand side and a second in the lower left hand side.
The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)
Directed by: Renny Harlin
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Geena Davis, Craig Bierko, Yvonne Zima
Visible crew/equipment: When Geena Davis is being dunked in water, you can see an air hose she is breathing out of in one shot. It is when the bad guy is talking, and you see her submerged.
Continuity mistake: When Geena Davis is meeting the old man at the bar in the train station, when the young guy talks to her, she looks over at him, and you can clearly see a boom mike in the shot which stays there until the scene changes.
Trivia: Scriptwriter Shane Black is a huge believer in recycling. Check out how much the moment when Jackson is captured by Bierko resembles Rigg's capture by McAllister in "Lethal Weapon". Black's 3 biggest movies - "Lethal Weapon", "The Last Boy Scout" and "The Long Kiss Goodnight" all involve a major character's daughter being kidnapped (to say nothing of all beginning with an "L").
Trivia: In an interview with GQ, Samuel L. Jackson said he was unable to secure an audition for this film because the studio told him the character was supposed to be white. He secured the part after running into Geena Davis and director Renny Harlin at a Christmas party. Jackson told Harlin that the studio wouldn't let him have the part, and Harlin cast him on the spot.
