Tango & Cash (1989) - 25 mistakes
starring Jack Palance, Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Teri Hatcher (add more)
Continuity: When Stallone catches Tango with his sister, he sees a stranger (the Chief) in the screen door in the background. He jumps forward into the door taking it with him, along with the stranger. The shot then shows the door get pretty smashed up, falling apart as they both hit the floor heavily. The next shot sees Stallone picking up a perfectly intact door off a crushed Chief.
Continuity: Towards the end of the movie when they are in their big 4x4 destroying the camp, they jump off a small cliff. It is a night scene so they have their headlights on. They cut outside the truck as it jumps and both headlights work. They go back inside, then outside as it does a hard landing. You can clearly see one light is now out from the impact. They go to another inside shot, then outside after it lands. Both lights now work.
Continuity: When Cash and Tango fight everyone in the prison, all of a sudden Cash is only fighting one person, and there is nobody around, except for a few arms visible from the other side of some bars. Cash takes a bat from that guy and uses it on two guys, but 5 seconds later he doesn't have the bat anymore and is surrounded by bad guys and "gives up."
Revealing: When Tango and Cash hold a bad guy upside down off a roof, Tango has his arms straight out in front of him, elbows locked, parallel to the ground. This would require incredible strength. In the next shot he holds the bad guy properly, held close to his own body with his elbows bent - but Tango appears to be exerting no effort in order to lift the guy at the beginning of this new shot. We can also see the outline of a harness system to hold the bad guy up under the black silk shirt of the bad guy.
Revealing: The bad Asian guy breaks through the mirror door exactly when Cash stops in front of it. Is it a two-way mirror? Maybe, because the mirror has no backing of any kind and is only one thin sheet of glass. Kind of dangerous to have a door in your house like that if you ever close the door too hard. Then the bad guy jumps blindly through a window - and, how fortunate - there is a car two stories below to break his fall. But when Cash jumps out the window he travels about 10 feet shorter in distance and doesn't reach the car.
