Blooper

The bicyclist walks past him on the left; but the black mark is on the right side of his shoe.

When Da Mayor first presents the bunch of roses to Mother Sister the blooms are fully opened. However, later in the film when the roses are again seen in her apartment, the blooms are closed.

When Mookie delivers a pizza right after the Bugging Out/Sal incident, Smiley is seen just outside the window of the Pizzeria on the left, as Mookie leaves with the pizza, and turns right. When Mookie arrives in the apartment building to deliver the pizza, Smiley meets him walking down the stairs. It is implausible that Smiley could have been in those two places within the time period shown.

"Pizzeria" is spelled wrong (as "Pizzaria") on the back of Mookie's shirt when he delivers a pizza to Tina and then goes into her apartment. It's spelled correctly elsewhere, such as on the front of Sal's, so this is a continuity error as well as being a typo.

Sal places a piece of pizza in front of Buggin' Out before they have their argument. After the argument, Buggin' Out sits down to eat his pizza. The piece of pizza looks different than the one Sal gave him.

(at around 30 mins) When Pino takes a pizza out of the oven for an order, he obviously moves the pizza cutter over the pizza instead of actually cutting it.

Very uncommon to be in NYC and not see one police officer walking the beat like in the film only the racist patrol cops are seen back n forth thru out the film as opposed to cops walking the neighborhoods like most NYC officers do..

When Mookie throws the trash can through Sal's window, the reverse shot from inside the restaurant reveals the main camera, in the lower left portion of the screen, dollying in towards the window as it's smashed.

In the dolly shot of Mookie walking down the sidewalk and saying hi to people he passes by, the shadow of the crane arm can be seen on a wall in the background.

Camera shadows in some shots of the final act.

The story takes place at the intersection of Bedford and Stuyvesant Avenues. In reality, the two do not cross each other, however the film was shot in the Bed-Stuy section of Brooklyn.

When Mookie is talking to Jade outside of the pizzeria, she says to him "I'm tired of supporting a grown woman." A few seconds later she says "I'm tired of supporting a grown man."

Sal says only American-Italians are on the wall. However, there is also a picture of Sophia Loren, who is Italian, not American-Italian.

The way Sal, who's an Italian-American from New York City pronounces the word "pizzeria".
