details

• Continuity: After Haru shoots the spear, the platform he is standing on is pulled into the wall of the room with Alison and the bomb. The bomb falls to the floor, but is shown in the next shot to fall neatly onto the rolling platform. The platform is then shown to be pulled through a window, completely shattering the glass and leaving the surrounding wall intact. However, Haru is later shown to lean on and fall because of a piece of broken wall (which is exactly where the glass was shattered).
  
  
• Continuity: A grappling hook caught on the right wheel of Gobei's wheelchair causes him to be pulled by the bus. After the initial sequence (when the wheel is shown correctly to be stationary) the grappling hook is obviously pulling Gobei from elsewhere on the wheelchair as the wheel is now turning normally.
  
  
• Continuity: Haru's gold pieces on the hotel counter change from five in one shot, to fourteen in the next shot, and then to eight in the last shots.
  
  

• Continuity: When Haru is disguised as a chef in the restaurant, he tosses a piece of shrimp up in the air and it lands on the inside of a woman's black shirt. When Haru retrieves the shrimp from her shirt with tongs it is hanging on the outside of her shirt.
  
  
• Boom mic visible: Reflected in the convertible's windshield when Gobei takes the wheel.
  
  
• Audio/visual unsynchronized: After Gobei has his wig torn off, he says, while hitting back, "Do you know how long it took to do my hair?" however, his lips don't move consistently with the words he's saying.
  
  
• Continuity: When Haru dances in the strip bar, he tears off his shirt. Later he's thrown out of the bar and lands in the garbage, then he's wearing his shirt again.
  
  
• Continuity: After Haru and Allison leave the restaurant they return to the Hotel. Haru takes his shoes off and is wearing black socks. In the next shot they enter his hotel room and he has white socks on.
  
  
• Continuity: When Haru is looking at Tanley's car, the two binocular covers, which he previously took off, disappear from his right hand when he's pulled by the gate.
  
  
• Continuity: When Haru is acting as a chef in the restaurant, the stain on the grill changes repeatedly between shots.
  
  
• Crew or equipment visible: When Haru is riding in the car on the race track, the tracks from the camera truck are visible in front of the car.
  
  
• Continuity: When he is swinging on a rope from the roof he falls on the balcony and crashes into a lying chair. A few shots later, the chair is whole again.
  
  
• Continuity: When the Chrysler LeBaron goes through the car wash, the car that comes out is different to the one that went in.
  
  
• Crew or equipment visible: When Haru first arrives at the hotel in his car, the crew is reflected in the side of the car.
  
  
• Continuity: When Gobei sits in the wheelchair with a broken arm, he manages use that arm for lifting it over his own head to take off his medal which he places around Haru's neck. He does this swiftly and without showing any pain, yet he complains about his broken arm sitting still when Haru hugs him.
  
  
• Continuity: When Haru climbs into the forklift, he hits a lever that makes the lift rise up, but in the next shot, it is at its original position.
  
  
• Miscellaneous: When Tanley and Haru are fighting in the warehouse, the pipe that Tanley uses is clearly made of rubber.
  
  
• Continuity: When Haru is about to finish of Tanley during the end, the pipe that Tanley has switches from Tanley's hand in one shot, Haru's in the next shot.
  
  
• Crew or equipment visible: When Haru is blindfold and Joey is driving the car on the horse racetrack you can see tire marks from the crew's car where they are filming in front of the car.
  
  
• Continuity: After explaining to Joey about how "black his belt is", the swords disappear from Haru's hands.
  
  
• Crew or equipment visible: When Haru jumps off the roof of the truck in the warehouse, the cushion mat is visible as it reacts to his landing.
  
  
• Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Haru encounters Alison in Beverly Hills, she asks him, "Haru, what are you doing here?" However, the audio clearly skips on the word "what".
  
  
• Continuity: The consistency and shape of the dog poo that Haru steps on when searching for "Sally Jones".
  
  
• Continuity: When Haru's brother is in the trunk of the Chrysler LeBaron and he looks out of the trunk, you see ‘Cavalier’ on the trunk.
