Goofs

Sal/Sol is shown to use a stainless Beretta in his everyday use. He relinquishes it when suspended. That night, he pulls a stainless Smith & Wesson (hammerless) out of his dresser, and takes it to confront Anon at her loft. His POV shots at her loft show a Beretta, while the wide shots show the Smith & Wesson.

Later, in the final gunfight, he uses the Beretta again, even though he has not been reinstated by the police (and given his duty weapon back)

Quotes

The Girl: [explaining her algorithm] Breaks my life up into fractions of seconds and randomly stores them in the records of everyone else. But if you try to find that split second of me, it would go by without you knowing. You have to have the algorithm to put my entire life back together.

Review the Reviewers

I think some people were looking in the wrong place for a movie this one isnt. It's a sci-fi movie, not of the action, space rocket variety. People are talking subdued because that sets the desired mood. Clive looking bored is Clive playing the role as a depressed man who doesn't have to be Al Pacino. Slow pacing? How about creating tension, instead to racing around chasing people. I call it a movie that takes its time and lets you digest it. If you want an action movie go somewhere else.
