The System - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Jim approaches the secret agent on the usual convoluted way to the mission briefing. The peanut vendor mentions the quarterback, and behind him there is a person walking in the tunnel. Switch to a new shot and there are two. (00:02:40)
10th Nov 2022
The Killer - S1-E1
Other mistake: We are of course not privy to the protocol of the secret service organization Jim Phelps is a member of; however, while he is at his own place choosing at his leisure the team members, Jim to pick Nicholas types "KJ" on the laptop, to pick Casey he types "PK", then to pick Max and Grant he just clicks a TV remote. Whatever system they are using, does not seem to make any internal sense.

The Killer - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: When Copperfield meets an untimely demise, Vince Martin' s stunt double that performs the fall is recognizable as such (his hair does not even remotely match). (00:03:25)
9th Nov 2022
The Killer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Jim's pupil and successor Copperfield is poisoned at the beginning of the episode. He screams, drawing the attention of the party guests. In the following POV shot, the guests are standing in entirely different spots in the room all of a sudden. (00:02:45)
8th Nov 2022
Character mistake: During scenario 47: Successors to the Stars, Captain Nemo has a dialogue where he says "Lend me your aid! Help me defeat Gargoyle and RECUE Nadia", in an obvious misspell of "rescue."

8th Nov 2022
Character mistake: In the rightmost part of Gen's stage, there is a store called "Siu Wah Bargagain Center", obviously with a misspelling of "Bargain."

Trivia: By open admission of one of the original artwork designer Akira "Akiman" Yasuda, the movie (known in Japan as "The Street Fighter") inspired at least 2 of the most iconic backgrounds of the game Street Fighter 2: it is really obvious when you watch the fight between Jim Henry and "the kid", on the docks with a boat in the background much like in Ken 's stage. The cage fight against Henry inspired also Zangief's stage. (00:19:30 - 00:47:50)
8th Nov 2022
Continuity mistake: In the fight at the dock where Robert Tessier makes his first appearance, he repeatedly hurts his young opponent letting him hurt his hands punching his bald dome. He parries a kick and knocks the youngster down with a cross. Pay attention to the guys by the donut on the boat; the guy in the mustard coat has his hands on/off the railing between shots. The group of four by that life preserver changes position even more noticeably a few seconds after when Henry gives a proper beating and yells "Somebody help this kid up." (00:21:30)
8th Nov 2022
Continuity mistake: Speed is having oysters after the losing effort with his first combatant. He glances back at his table and spots a smiling Charles Bronson suddenly there. Notice the position of the towel; when he gets back to the table with his refill of mussels a moment later, the towel changed position. (00:08:05)
8th Nov 2022
Character mistake: In the first fight, there's a reaction shot where Speed shouts jubilant "Yes, yes!" when his own fighter misses with his attack and doubles over hit by a painful kick in the gut. That's a mighty weird thing to cheer on. (00:07:00)
8th Nov 2022
Audio problem: The very first punch we see thrown in the movie happens when Spencer 'Speed' Weed 's man, 'Chuck Boy', swings at the opponent. It is a wide shot, and even from that distance you can see a lot of light between the haymaker and the opponent's face, but of course there's a thunderous sound as if the guy got socked hard in the mush. (00:05:45)
8th Nov 2022
Factual error: When Bronson is walking into the city through the railroad deposit, he walks by unused wagons branded Missouri Pacific Lines. The wagon bears the slogan "Route of the Eagles" which was coined and standardized on wagons only in the late 40s. The movie is set in the depression years. (00:02:45)
8th Nov 2022
Other mistake: Bronson arrives in town hitching a ride in a boxcar. He hops off and begins walking along a different track. In the next shot, you can see in the background the same freight train he left, already moving in the opposite direction. (00:02:10)
8th Nov 2022
Continuity mistake: Look at Charles Bronson's sideburns in his close-ups on the moving train at the beginning of the beginning of the movie. The hair grows longer when it gets closer to the hat and to the top of his ear. When he hops off the train, his hair appears to have a much closer shave, evened well above the ear. (00:01:35)
30th Jul 2022
Factual error: The movie is set during the Great Depression, in 1933, but Charles Bronson gets in town aboard of a freight train pulled by an EMD NW5 diesel locomotor, introduced over a decade later. (00:01:15)
30th Jul 2022
Factual error: The morning after the ambush, Cyrano meets with the baker asking for a private spot. Ragueneau is an amateur poet, and he reads his composition. When Cyrano asks for a place more private than the oven surrounded by men, the baker recites "Jupiter and Pluto are planets, revolving like us, far apart." The story is set in the 1600s, and Pluto hadn't yet been identified as a planet nor sighted, let alone named. It happened in 1930. (00:28:40)
30th Jul 2022
Character mistake: Before Scenario 12: The Dispeller of Chaos, the dialogue featuring Ruri has a couple of repetitions who are not part of her character and never appear again in the rest of the game; talking to Misumu, she says "What would that would be", and to the Aesti pilots she says "But first there's someone I want to to [...] first."
30th Jul 2022
Continuity mistake: An Hispanic gang approaches David as he is about to have a smoke. He raises his lighter, the head honcho of the gang picks his cigarette, and David raises again the hand he already raised. (00:32:50)
30th Jul 2022
Revealing mistake: The sequence when Wino Henry gets hit by the tail of the gator and thrown against the wall is all sorts of wrong; in the first part of it, the victim is just standing there in the silliest way and in fact professional bum actor Carmen Filpi 'corpses' waiting for the special effect to happen. In the second part, he's replaced by a poorly disguised stuntman. (00:29:20)
