Trivia
The entire prophecy spoken by the Oracle girl comes true; including being "reborn" from mud and earth; as once he escapes from the sinkhole, Jaguar Paw emerges black (like the Jaguar) turning the tables on his pursuers, becoming their hunters, and no longer the quarry. See more »Goofs
Continuity: The son of the hooligan leader Zero Wolf gets hurt on the right eye during the attack on the village. His father does two blood pressure release cuts right and below his eye. In the scene where the Commander gives his son the knife, the cuts moved further up and are now on to the right of his eye. And in the "shooting range" scene when the son is "the finisher", the cuts moved even further up and are now to the right and to the top of his eye. See more »Quotes
