“Equilibrium” Goofs List

• Continuity: The revealing “Freedom” photograph becomes wrinkled and then smooth again between shots.
• Continuity: When the troops pull up to Preston in the Nethers, the lead motorcycles can be seen leaning to the right (screen left) on their kickstands. When Preston does his backward somersault off the middle bike, it’s parked straight up and down and the fairing is missing.
• Continuity: In the pistol whipping sequence, two sets of spikes come out of the magazines. When you see Preston’s pistol in slow motion about to hit a guards faceplate, there are no spikes present. Also you can clearly see that it is a stuntman in the reflection of the visor.
• Continuity: In the pistol whipping sequence, when you see Preston’s pistol in slow motion about to hit a guards faceplate, you can see the reflection of Preston moving to hit the visor itself. The reflection shows Preston hitting with his left hand, but when the real hand shows up, it is actually his right hand.
• Revealing mistakes: After Preston drops off the puppy, he gets into his car and shuts the door. This film is running in reverse – you can see smoke is billowing into the muffler, instead of out.
• Continuity: When Preston shows the picture of Partridge to Mary, the picture is shown lying on the table as he walks out of the room. In the next shot, he is sitting at his desk looking at the picture, even though he left it behind.
• Continuity: As the clerics raid the sense offenders’ hide out, Preston removes his gloves and drops them. A few shots later he takes them off again, and when he gets home he is once again seen taking off his gloves to take the prozium.
• Revealing mistakes: During the pistol whipping scene, as Preston breaks through the visors of the crash helmets of the guards, a second screen is visible protecting the actors eyes from broken glass.
• Continuity: When Preston slides the 2 clips down the corridor, there are two guards running down the hall toward the clips and you can see one of the guards start to jump over them. In the next shot, the clips slide right up to the guard’s feet.
• Continuity: When DuPont picks up the gun from his desk it has moved slightly from when we saw it in the previous shot.
• Continuity: During the scene in which Brandt picks up Preston at the distribution center, the wheels on the Seville change from the custom five spoke alloys to the standard Cadillac wheel for that particular model, and then back again.
• Continuity: The condition of the picture of Errol and Mary changes from the interrogation room to the scene of Preston at his desk. When Preston shows the picture to Mary its wrinkled and creased, but one scene later the picture is in a like new condition.
• Continuity: When the two guards step through the double doors into the hallway in the final guard shootout scene, the one on the left of the screen steps past the door handle but when the shot cuts to another angle they are scene catching their arm on the door handle and pulling their arm out of the way.
• Factual errors: In the beginning of the film, when they discover the Mona Lisa, the picture is actually several times larger than the real Mona Lisa, even though the scan shows that this is the authentic one.
• Continuity: The William Butler Yeats book that Errol keeps is larger and much thicker when he is reading it in the Nethers, compared to when we see it in the car.
• Revealing mistakes: When Preston fights the bodyguards with the swords, as he kills the last two men you can see that the man behind him (whom Preston just stuck a sword through) doesn’t hold the first part of the sword in a straight line, but accidentally holds it in an angle as he collapses.
• Revealing mistakes: In the katana fight Preston jabs into one of the men, and it’s clearly visible the sword misses the torso, and the actor’s actually holding it between his arm and against his chest. In normal playback the move looks nevertheless convincing.
• Revealing mistakes: In the finishing katana move, where Preston impales one of the fighters to his rear right (screen left), the seam in the theatre sword is clearly visible between the victim’s hand and torso.
• Continuity: In the scene where Preston shoots Partridge (his predecessor) in the head, the hole in the book and his head changes sizes from being very big in one frame to small in the next to non existent in the last frame.
• Revealing mistakes: As Partridge lies dead on the mortuary table, a pulse is visible in his neck.
• Revealing mistakes: In the pistol whipping scene, Preston knocks the visor up on the helmeted guard to the left of him.
• Revealing mistakes: In the opening sequence when the policemen run around the side of the car, the rear window is smashed before the criminals start shooting.
• Continuity: The cut on Preston’s lip towards the end of the movie changes size during several of the scenes.
• Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Preston scans the Mona Lisa, his machine reads “L. da Vinci 1479-1528.” ‘Leonardo da Vinci’ lived 1452-1519.
• Continuity: SPOILER: In the final fight between Preston and DuPont, Preston takes away DuPont’s gun. The gun disappears and reappears in his left hand between shots.
• Continuity: SPOILER: When Preston is fighting with Brandt in DuPont’s office at the end of the film, Brandt drops his Samurai sword. In the next shot we see Brandt dropping to his knees still holding the sword.
• Continuity: SPOILER: When Mary is walking into the incinerator, some shots show a man without a helmet standing behind her, but he is missing from other shots.
• Continuity: SPOILER: During the gun battle in the corridor outside DuPont’s office, some shots show Preston’s pistols loaded with the weighted clips before he actually loads them.
• Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: When Preston is storming the lobby outside father’s office, you can see the wires attached to the cartridges he throws out into the middle before he opens fire on the guards.
• Continuity: SPOILER: In the fight in the hall outside of DuPont’s office, when Preston throws the two gyroclips into the hall and kills the two running guards, the standing guards raise their weapons to fire upon Preston. However, in the wider shot when you see the two dead guards dropping to the ground, all the guards still have their weapons at their sides.
• Continuity: SPOILER: After killing DuPont, Preston still has a gun in his hand. In the next shot he’s leaving the room but without any gun in his hand, although he didn’t drop the weapon.
• Continuity: SPOILER: When Preston fights the guards outside Father’s room, after dispatching the two first guards, he stands to look at the rest of the guards in the hallway. In the next shot, the bullet holes made by the two first guards have disappeared from the wall behind Preston.
• Continuity: SPOILER: Before Mary enters the incinerator, she is seen taking off her red robe, but when the door is closed and the shot cuts to her hand, she is still wearing the robe.
• Factual errors: SPOILER: It is impossible to see both the sun and a solar rainbow. In order to see a rainbow formed by the sun, a person must be standing with his/her back to the sun.
• Audio/visual unsynchronized: SPOILER: When Preston shoots the final two helmeted guards in the room where he was having his emotions monitored during Father/DuPont’s speech, there are three muzzle flashes but the sound of four shots being fired.
• Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: When DuPont is revealing to Preston that Father’s visage has been used as a political puppet some ‘cut and paste’ work becomes apparent. The words in the speech “The council simply elected me…” and “…to pursue his paternal tradition” appear to be from different shoots as DuPont’s face snaps from one frame to the next to a different position and the tense in his voice dramatically shifts.
• Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: When Preston shoots out the window that is displaying DuPont’s face just after his speech to Preston hooked up to the emotion monitor, the gun in Preston’s hand appears to ‘double fire’ from the same trigger pull. He fires the weapon and there is a muzzle flash but when the angle changes there is a second muzzle flash without him having pulled the trigger a second time.
• Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: Obvious stunt double when Preston does flip mid-air to dodge bullets from the first two guards in the hallway in the final guard shootout scene.
• Continuity: SPOILER: During the fight outside DuPont’s office, John Preston drops his two pistols (at the end of the hallwa
