Movie Trivia/Goofs

  • Movie Goof (revealing mistake): Several of the top tiers of "gold" jiggle around upon hitting the ground when lowered from the plane; too light weight to be real gold.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When the car flips off the carrier and crushes the police car, the gumball light diffuser pops off and lands intact on the ground. Later in a close shot the diffuser is shown to be cracked off with the base still attached to the car.
  • The screenplay originally was set in London and was to have been a TV show. However the scope of the production was too large for British TV at the time and so the script was purchased for the movie and the setting changed to Turin because it had the most extensive computer-controlled traffic monitoring system in Europe. However Milan had been the original location choice until the producers realized it would be impossible to get a shooting permit.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): Spray of blue paint changes when security van enters building.
