• Continuity: In the final fight scene between Beck and Hatcher, you notice that Hatcher has no bullet wounds on his shirt sleeves. When Mariana shoots Hatcher in his right arm, he grasps his bicep. However, the "bullet holes" in his shirt appear near the elbow. Also, Beck shoots the pistol from Hatcher's right hand without hitting his body. In subsequent scenes during Hatcher's final dialog, Hatcher's shirt has an identical wound on his left arm, with no one having shot him.
