Other mistake: When Giosuè discovers the German boy in the metal box Guido says that his name is Schwarz (Black). The German subtitles translate the name as Schwanz (Tail or - rather - Dick), and that's how both Guido and Giosuè refer to the boy later. Even if the different naming later was intended the first subtitling was too anticipatory. (01:33:50 - 01:45:50)

Money Train (1995)
Plot hole: The only reason why Woody and Wesley observe their targets (actually people they are supposed to protect) from another platform can only be that trains can get in between in crucial moments for the sake of suspense enhancement.
