| Plot: | Chev Chelios survives a fall from the sky, sort of. He's in an unknown location, sedated, while various Chinese are harvesting his organs. His heart is gone, in an ice chest; a temporary in its place. Chev escapes, knowing only the name of the guy with the ice chest. He calls Doc Miles, an unlicensed cardiologist, who tells him there's only an hour's life in the artificial heart: keep it charged. Chev needs to find his own heart and get to Doc for a transplant. He starts his time-limited pursuit of shadowy figures, the ice chest, and his heart aided by Eve, Rei, and Venus - a stripper, a prostitute, and a pal with Tourette's - constantly needing an electric charge to keep going. |

Goofs
|
Continuity: When Chelios first calls Doc Miles, Doc's hand holding the phone switches from left to right repeatedly. Crew: When Chev is driving in the car for the first time after his heart transplant, you can for a brief second, See the director in the right hand corner of the screen when Chev is asking the Mexicans where the cypress social club is. Revealing mistakes: When Eve and Chelios both fall onto the horse race track, in the previous scene where they stumble, you can see bleachers below where they fall, so they would have fallen on another level of bleachers instead of on the track. Fact errors: In the scene where Chelios goes outside after escaping the hospital he is behind a crate when a man sneaks up behind him with a Springfield Armory XD pistol. These pistols have a cocking pin indicator, as well as a round indicator on the top of the slide. In this scene the round indicator is down, meaning there is no round in the chamber. Chelios does a brass check after disarming the man, and does not rack a round in the chamber. In the following scene he shots two men with this weapon without a round chambered. Miscellaneous: When Chev Chelios (Jason Statham) is fleeing the triad hospital at the beginning of the movie, he passes a larger-than-life portrait of Mao Zedong. This is highly unlikely, as the Communist Party in China targeted triads during the Chinese Revolution, effectively forcing them out of Mainland China. The government currently maintains very strict anti-triad laws. It is unlikely the triads would lionize Mao. Fact errors: When the LAPD shock Chev Chelios with a TASER outside the strip club, they appear to are using the wrong model TASER. The LAPD employ the Advancer TASER M26, which is shaped like a pistol. Revealing mistakes: When the paramedic stands up in the therapist's office, even before he gets hit by the bullet, you can see a small black hole on the side of his head, clearly showing where the CGI blood/bullet impact is supposed to be. Revealing mistakes: In the scene where Chelios and Eve are having sex on the horse track, a clip of it was later shown on the news. However, the angle of the clip was as if the camera was right on the track with them. Revealing mistakes: When Chelios and Eve fall to the racetrack, they would have been right beside the bleachers. A shot a few seconds later shows them in the middle of the racetrack, 30 feet away. Continuity: At the Strip Please club: The girl bartender is killed by a head-shot but a few seconds later, the same girl can be seen standing at the bar in the background with the forehead wound already in place. Continuity: On Catalina Island: When El Huron sees the girl gun gang for the first time, the girls are shown with their guns already raised and aimed ready to fire, but the next clip shows the girls raising their guns. Revealing mistakes: On Catalina Island: during the shooting there is a low angle shot under a beach chair. You can see the cabling for the squibs which where used a few seconds earlier for the Bulet impacts in the same chair. Also the you are able to see from the form of the impacts that webbing was destroyed from the button up rather then from the top as if a bullet had hit it. |
Quotes

Chev Chelios: Where's my fucking pumper? Chev Chelios: [catches up with Johnny Vang after chase] Did I just drop some change [grabs Johnny Vang by neck] or did I hear a chink? Ria: What the fuck? I'm clean like baby! Chev Chelios: What's that? Fucking Cunt-a-nese? Doc Miles: Is Doc Miles gonna have to choke a bitch? Fish Halman: In a story so bizarre I can scarcely believe the event I'm reporting, and yet corroborated by at least a dozen eye witnesses.A white male apparently fell from the sky above downtown Los Angeles today, landed in the middle of a busy intersection, destroying one vehicle and hospitalising its elderly driver,and then was removed from the scene even before emergency personnel could respond.Without a body the police have yet to piece together the events of the day.It can only be described as implausible.Reports of a second body landing in the Boyle Heights area have yet to be confirmed, and are being treated as the bullshit they most likely are. Chinese Doctor 1: [following exchange the two Chinese doctors was in Chinese possibly Mandarin/Cantonese.Subtitles shown] How long can we keep him alive? Chinese Doctor 2: Maybe long time.He die hard with a vengeance. Chinese Doctor 1: Big Boss need to harvest his cornucopia of organs for later. Lungs,pancreas,bladder... Chinese Doctor 2: What comes out next? Chinese Doctor 1: Boss gave specific order. [the doctor takes out a diagram of a body showing all the organs they are going to take out and circles Chev's penis as the next thing to be removed.At this point Chev is looking at the diagram and realizes whats going on] Chev Chelios: Fuck that. [Chev proceeds to beat the crap out of the two doctors] Long Beach Nose Punch Triad: [points a two tone Springfield XD pistol at Chev] Lost? Chev Chelios: Nope. [parries the gun out of the gunman's hand and slams his forearm in his face knocking him out] Chinese Doctor 1: [after Johnny puts his cigarette ash in Chev's open chest] Get your cigarette out of here asshole! We're operating! Johnny Vang: So sorry. Chinese Doctor 1: Fuck your mother! I let boss know you shit in Superman's stomach. Dumb ass! Johnny Vang: I said I was sorry. [Johnny laughs and then spits into Chev's chest] Chev Chelios: Who's got my fucking strawberry tart? Ria: [to Triad, about Chev] This dude my Kevin Costner! He going to beat you off! Cypress Triad Hood #1: What? Chev Chelios: Where's Johnny Vang? Cypress Triad Hood #1: You looking to get your ass killed dawg? Ria: You ask for it, he's gonna tap your ass! Chev Chelios: Wrong expression. Ria: [to Chev] You need me like Whitney Houston dude! Chico: You like sushi, Chinese man? [Johnny laughs] Johnny Vang: That's Japanese, El Torito. Chinese don't eat that shit. Ria: [to Chev] You are my shiny lunch box. Chev Chelios: I lost the belt battery, doc. Doc Miles: How long ago? Chev Chelios: Over an hour. Doc Miles: Jesus Christ, that's not fucking possible Chevy! You should be dead... fine, nevermind. Doc Miles: Chev, I'm a certified heart surgeon. Well, I was. Lost my license after I fucked up my ex-wife's vaginal rejuvenation procedure in our basement. That's irrelevant right now. The point is - if you get hold of your heart, I'm reasonably sure I can put it back in for you. Chev Chelios: [upon seeing guys using a shock collar on their dog] You pair of sausage nigels! How do you sleep at night? Venus: You're Chev Chelios, right? The sickest, most wicked-ist motherfucker that ever vaporized motherfuckers in cold-blood, right? Chev Chelios: Yeah, that's me. Chev Chelios: A man who calls himself The Ferret. Venus: El Huron. Chev Chelios: You know him? Venus: No. It means The Ferret in Spanish. [repeated line] Various: Fuck you Chelios! Don Kim: You know what you are, Chev Chelios? Chev Chelios: Tell me. Don Kim: You... are a shit magnet. Don Kim: [to Chev, about Venus] Your friend has the gay condition. Chev Chelios: [before crashing in limousine] Chicken and broccoli. Chev Chelios: [looking into Johnny's cooler] What is that? What kind of sick freak carries around something like this in a box? I am shocked to my fuckin' core. You have got some big problems, motherfucker. What the fuck is that? Talk Show Host: [referring to Chev] Tell me what he's like when he's at home. Karen Chelios: When he's home, he's like a ghost. He plays those video games; all day, all night. Talk Show Host: Video games. Karen Chelios: All day. Talk Show Host: And you let him do that? Well, you did buy the games for him, yeah? Karen Chelios: Of course. Why should I deny my son? Talk Show Host: Chev, where's dad? Young Chev: I never met the wanker. He died before I was born. Talk Show Host: What do you think he'd say, if he saw you acting out like this? Young Chev: Dunno, sir. Talk Show Host: If he were here now, and he asked you "WHY THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU DO THE THINGS YOU DO SON?", what would you tell him? Young Chev: Dunno, sir! Bored, I guess. Chev Chelios: [while Chico pisses on him] Massive homo cunt! Karen Chelios: I tried to give him Ritalin, but... Talk Show Host: Chev? Young Chev: I sold it. [Doc Miles' cell phone rings] Doc Miles: Hello, Doc Miles. Chev Chelios: Yeah, Doc. It's Chev. [Doc Miles spits out his drink and ice shaking his head rapidly] Doc Miles: Jesus H. Chelios! You've gotta be kidding me! Male Porn Star: [referring to Eve while at the strike] I'm gonna bang that bitch in the back! Low Rider #1: Damn, dog. You good, ese? Chev Chelios: Tiger fucking Woods. Never better. Greatest day of my fucking life. Chev Chelios: Fucking useless. Venus: Yeah? Well, you ain't no Ralph Macchio yourself, Chev! Glenda Lansing: He treated me like his hot little whore. Chev Chelios: Just juice me! Poon Dong: [to Asian women] Hey, I got five dollars says you blow me for twenty bucks. Doc Miles: Confucius say, "Karma's a bitch". Ria: No fucky sucky for you asshole! Ria: You want sticky me? [starts humping Chev] Johnny Vang: You can't look in that box! Randy: You want me to drop the hammer? [gets thrown onto a parked car by Eve] Chev Chelios: Alright, Chow Mein. Who do you work for? Shot Gun Triad: Fuck you, Chelios! [Chev whacks him with the butt of the shotgun] Chev Chelios: Fucking grunt. [dips shotgun barrel in oil, pulls down the thug's pants, and shoves the shotgun up his ass] Chev Chelios: You found me in quite an unpleasant mood this morning, mate. Now I'm going to ask you this question one time. Who's got my fucking strawberry tart? [the thug looks at him confused and Chev points to his heart while an on-screen subtitle says "strawberry tart=heart"] Chev Chelios: Capische? [the thug starts stuttering] Chev Chelios: J-j-j-j-just spit the fucking name out! [sticks the shotgun further up the thug's ass and starts wiggling it] Shot Gun Triad: Johnny Vang! Chev Chelios: Johnny fucking Vang? Johnny fucking Vang? Good boy. Where? Shot Gun Triad: Cypress Social Club! Chev Chelios: Cypress-Cypress Social Club? Now you're sure about that, ain't ya? [thug nods head] Chev Chelios: Good boy. Thanks for coming. Now you can keep that. [leaves the shotgun up the thug's ass and walks away] |
