Torque Goofs/Mistakes

  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When the bikers tear out of the desert diner, only their tracks are visible, not the cars' that tore out earlier.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): At the very end of the movie (late afternoon), they say they are going to go south to Mexico and they say, "Let's Ride." The next (and very last) shot of the movie shows them driving in the desert, but the shadows are pointing to the right, indicating they are going straight north. If they had been driving the next morning, this would be okay but there is no indication between these two shots that a night has passed.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): In the freeway chase, as the Humvee flips, it is going at an angle. But as it is approaching the Porsche and is about to crash, the Humvee looks as if it was dropped from above.
  • Movie Goof (revealing mistake): When Shane and Ford are racing through the rally back to her place, she is wearing only a hooded sweatshirt with her hair hanging down. No matter how fast she goes, her hair and hood never move.
  • Movie Goof (factual errors): When the speed bikes get off road, you can clearly see that they're in fact two strokes dirt bikes and that they're covered by a fake fairing so they look like sport bikes.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When Ford jumps on the new motorcycle near the end, he is headed out the garage door. In the next shot, he is airborne and going through a window.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When they get in the trailer with the race car at the gas station they close the door behind them, but there is no way for them to latch it. In a later scene when the truck driver is asked to open the trailer by McPherson he notices the lock is gone but the latch is secured in place.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): Ice Cube is seen on his own bike on the highway chase seen when Ford and Shane are in the car. The problem is, Ice Cube's bike has already been destroyed by the train and he is suppose to be riding Ford's bike.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): During the initial desert race sequence, a tortoise is seen walking through the cars at the starting line. In the next shot however, the tortoise is gone.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): Towards the end of the movie, a bus approaches. The first shot of the bus shows the driver to be a man without any facial hair. The next time we see him he has a very long beard and has gained a lot of weight.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): In the scene where Ford and Trey are riding along the top of the train, the shadows of the train repeatedly switch from the right to left side and back again.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): In the scene when the group is being chased by the Reapers through "The Palms", the bikes change from actual sport bikes, to "SuperMoto" bikes dressed up to resemble the sport bikes. A Supermoto bike is essentially a dirt bike, usually 4 stroke, with street bike rims and tires, that usually race on tracks made mostly of asphalt. This would have been done to allow the bikes to be jumped in the several scenes, something which could not have been done with regular sport bikes.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When Ford mounts the jet-powered bike to chase after Henry James, he is not wearing sunglasses. In the next shot, as the engine kicks over, he is.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When Trey and Ford are riding atop the train, and they jump off, Trey gets stuck underneath his bike. Ford saves him, and they go on opposite sides of the train. The train hit Trey's bike, blowing it to pieces. During one of the next scenes, Trey is seen on the same bike that got blown up.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When McPherson and the police open the back door of the 18-wheeler trailer, there are at least four people standing directly at the doors with guns at the ready. In the next shot, the car comes out of the trailer, and only one person (McPherson) is behind the doors.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): When Junior storms into the club where the band is playing, the camera pans up and over the audience where you can see the band standing around motionless on stage. The next shot is of the band jumping around and rocking out in time with the music.
