Goofs

Crew: SPOILER: When Neville is in the dark warehouse looking for Sam, he enters a bathroom. When his flashlight hits a mirror, he ducks and shields the light, but there is still a circle of light from the camera behind him. Fact errors: All the flags shown hanging from various buildings in New York City are in perfect condition. These flags would have been torn and faded from three years of hanging in the weather. SYNC: SPOILER: Neville states the lab doors are made of Plexiglas (acrylic), but when the "alpha" Dark Seeker smashes them, the sound is that of breaking glass. Continuity: The bite marks on the right shoulder of Neville jump to his left shoulder during a cut shot in the final scene in the basement lab. Revealing mistakes: During the beginning scenes, where the camera pans over the city, during one pass over a road that runs horizontally across the picture, if you look closely people can be seen walking close to the buildings. Continuity: SPOILER: During the scene on the dock just before Neville's rescue by Anna and Ethan: the driver's side window is shattered several times, but exterior views of the SUV shows the window intact. Continuity: If you look out of the car window on the driver's side (at roughly the 3:18 mark) just after Neville grabs his gun, you will see a silver and red car parked (silver on left, red on right). Neville continues driving down the road and away from the parked cars, but at around the 4:00 mark, when you get another clear shot out his window (over his shoulder), you can see the same two cars parked, yet he is not in the same area where they first appeared. Continuity: SPOILER: In the opening scene, Neville's M4 rifle has a sling attached. After the deer he is aiming at gets attacked by the lion, the rifle no longer has a sling. Fact errors: The hand grenade Neville pulls out in the end scene has a blue arming spoon. Only dummy grenades have blue arming spoons, meaning the grenade isn't a real one. Continuity: After his first swing, we can clearly see only 3 balls remain on the SR-71, and they're immediately beside the dog. But when the shot reverses, he hits another without resetting a ball, or taking a step forward, or disturbing the dog. Fact errors: When Neville opens the drawer in his lab and grabs the grenade, it is shown as a fragmentary grenade. However, when he sets it off, it explodes in a burst of flame. Fragmentary grenades explode without large flames and throw shrapnel. The explosion shown would have been from an incendiary grenade, which looks like an aerosol canister and not the rounded frag grenade. Revealing mistakes: In the lab, when Anna is looking at the pictures of the Dark Seekers, many of these pictures are obvious duplicates. Continuity: When Neville is closing the windows after Anna and Ethan are in his apartment, his shirt changes from long sleeve white to dark short sleeve, then back again when he leaves the room. FAIR: Neville is able to drive around the city after 3 years of isolation. Gas starts degrading in three months in the tank of the car, but in a closed tank (such as those at a gasstation) it can be kept for several years. The degradation is due to the fact that it evaporates and mixes with oxygen, but that doesn't happen in an airtight tank. Continuity: When Robert Neville goes to sleep the first night, he is adamant about shutting all reinforcements on the windows. Yet when he wakes up in his bed in the morning, we see the sun shining in through the unbarred windows. As proved later in the film, he cannot remove the barriers from the windows until dawn has broken properly. Revealing mistakes: The sounds made by the fleeing whitetail deer are elk noises. CHAR: Robert Neville tells Anna that there were 6 billion people on Earth, 90 percent were killed by KV outright (5.4 billion) and that there was one percent immunity. From that he arrived at twelve million immune and 588 million dark seekers. However, if calculated from the 600 million remaining (the ten percent that did not die outright) one percent would be six million, not twelve million, leaving 594 million dark seekers, not 588 million. The numbers he arrives at would be correct with 2 percent immunity. FAIR: When Neville is eating cereal he pours on milk. But three years have passed so there would be no fresh milk. However, Anna later mentions that the eggs are powdered eggs, so it is certainly powdered milk that Neville puts on his cereal. FAIR: SPOILER: When Anna rescues Robert using her vehicle, she said she drove all the way there from Baltimore. But since all the bridges were already destroyed, it's not clear how she got her vehicle onto Manhattan Island. The only bridges that are definitively shown to be demolished are the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. The George Washington Bridge could be intact (and is shown to be at the end of the alternate version). However, she could also have taken a small boat to the island and resupplied there. The island is full of cars and goods, and there's no indication that the car she was driving on Manhattan is the one she drove from Baltimore. In fact, the car she's driving when she reaches Vermont at the end clearly is new, suggesting she had to get another car after leaving the island. SYNC: Shortly after Neville finishes quoting Shrek (2001), a shot of the lounge as he walks into the kitchen reveals that the audio from the film does not actually match the visual images. Continuity: When Col. Neville is ensnared by the Alpha Male there is no line attached to the taxi cab. Continuity: In the first scene in Neville's apartment, he is seen watching TV. The TV has 3 A/V connectors plugged in the front, presumably from an adjacent device. In later scenes, although the same devices are still there, the A/V connectors are now missing Continuity: SPOILER: When Robert finally talks to the mannequin after Sam's death, he approaches "her" from behind. In front of the mannequin there are many movies on the shelves, but when Robert starts talking to "her" being by her side, the same movie cases appear next to Robert. FAIR: At the beginning, the bridges are blown up to prevent access to Manhattan. At the end, they are seen driving off Manhattan on a bridge. However, only two bridges are shown being destroyed. There are many other bridges that may have been left intact in order to allow (yet minimize) access. (Only the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge are shown to be destroyed. Other bridges, such as the Williamsburg and Triboro, might have been kept but blocked. The intact bridge at the end of the alternate version appears to be the George Washington.) Revealing mistakes: A little after the scene where Robert was ensnared and then he cut himself loose; The streak of sunshine on the street preventing the monsters reaching Robert becomes narrower as the sun sets. For the sunshine on the street to become narrower as depicted in that scene, the sun would have to have been setting behind Robert or the alpha male. The was sun setting into the distance on Robert's right side and the alpha male's left. Continuity: When Robert Neville has his flash backs with his family in their SUV a zombie smashes his face against the window creating a blood splatter mark on the passengers window. But in a later flashback the blood splatter is gone. Revealing mistakes: The automobiles throughout the movie are remarkably clean. After sitting out in the open for three years, they would be covered with dirt, bird droppings, and other such debris. Fact errors: During the mass evacuation scene the M4 that the military is using clearly have the civilian 16" barrels. The military issued Colt M4 have 14.5" barrels. Continuity: When Robert is hitting golf balls from the aircraft carrier and uses his carbine to scope the running deer, the flashlight on his weapon is on (his) left side of the barrel. In the subsequent scene when he enters the dark area, the flashlight moves to the opposite side. Crew: When Robert Neville is about to enter the dark are to chase after Sam, and as he is swinging his gun from side to side, for a split second, a camera's shadow can be seen sweeping towards the left as he is doing so. FAIR: When Neville wakes up in his apartment after Anna rescued him he enters the kitchen with a gun in his hand. In one shot Anna has a white top and a pink bathrobe. Seconds later she wears a green shirt. However, this was Neville imagining Anna and Ethan as his wife and daughter before snapping back to reality. SYNC: When Neville fires his gun (an M4A1 carbine) at the dark seeker in the house and runs out of ammo, the weapon can be heard clicking several times. An M4A1 will not click when the magazine runs empty. The bolt carrier group will lock to the rear holding the hammer down; pulling the trigger has no further effect. Fact errors: In the scenes with the crowd on the bridge, none of the soldiers are wearing unit patches or any other customary insignia. Fact errors: The plague allegedly strikes in 2009. On one of the news tapes Neville is watching, the bottom news ticker indicates that the "Patriots defeated the Giants" for the second time that season. The Patriots would only play the Giants once every four years, and never twice in the same season, unless the two met in the Super Bowl, and the ticker doesn't indicate that it was the Super Bowl. The Patriots and Giants, in fact, played each other twice in the 2007 season (one in the regular season ans once in the Super Bowl), therefore they won't play each other again until 2011, unless they meet in the Super Bowl. Fact errors: Neville (Will Smith) records that his infected female subject has a "PaO2 300% of normal" - not possible as she was clearly breathing air, in which the partial pressure of oxygen is only about 157% of that in normal arterial blood |

[while the Dark Seekers try to break through a plexiglass door in Neville's laboratory] Neville: [screaming] I can help. I can save you. I can save everybody. Anna: The world is quieter now. We just have to listen. If we listen, we can hear God's plan. Neville: God's plan. Anna: Yeah. Neville: All right, let me tell you about your "God's plan". Six billion people on Earth when the infection hit. KV had a ninety-percent kill rate, that's five point four billion people dead. Crashed and bled out. Dead. Less than one-percent immunity. That left twelve million healthy people, like you, me, and Ethan. The other five hundred and eighty-eight million turned into your dark seekers, and then they got hungry and they killed and fed on everybody. Everybody! Every *single* person that you or I has ever known is dead! Dead! There is no god! Neville: My name is Robert Neville. I am a survivor living in New York City. I am broadcasting on all AM frequencies. I will be at the South Street Seaport everyday at mid-day, when the sun is highest in the sky. If you are out there... if anyone is out there... I can provide food, I can provide shelter, I can provide security. If there's anybody out there... anybody... please. You are not alone. [from trailer] Neville: God didn't do this. We did! Neville: Come on, Sam. We gotta go. Neville: Day one thousand and one. We came in close contact with a hive today. Blood tests confirm that I remain immune to both the airborne and contact strains. Canines remain immune to airborne strain only. The vaccine trials continue. I'm still unable to transfer my immunity to infected hosts. The Krippen Virus is... elegant. [mind wanders] Neville: Just fishin' in the dark, son. [after a long pause, going back to his train of thought] Neville: Behavioral note - an infected male exposed himself to sunlight today. Now it's possible decreased brain function or growing scarcity of food is causing them to... ignore their basic survival instincts. Social de-evolution appears complete. Typical human behavior is now entirely absent. [from trailer] Neville: I'm not gonna let this happen. Neville: [talking to Anna about Bob Marley] He had this idea. It was kind of a virologist idea. He believed that you could cure racism and hate... literally cure it, by injecting music and love into people's lives. When he was scheduled to perform at a peace rally, a gunman came to his house and shot him down. Two days later he walked out on that stage and sang. When they asked him why - He said, "The people, who were trying to make this world worse... are not taking a day off. How can I? Light up the darkness." Neville: Eat your vegetables. Don't just push 'em around, eat 'em. I ain't playin'! Neville: I like Shrek. Neville: [after his outburst scares Anna and Ethan] It's just... I was saving that bacon! Neville: [to a pretty mannequin in the video store] I... I promised a friend I would say hello to you today. [begins to cry] Please say hello to me. [sobs] Please say hello to me. Neville: [to Sam] Just how you like it... disgusting! [speaking of the mannequin at the DVD store] Neville: What should I say? You wanna see some infected rats? [pauses] Neville: I'll say hello tommorrow. Neville: [to mannequin in video store] Morning, Hank. I'm halfway through the "G's". Neville: I'm listening. Neville: This is Ground Zero. This is my site. I can fix. I can fix this. Neville: Nothin' happened the way it was supposed to happen. Neville: [to Sam] You can't go running into the dark. [first lines] TV Personality: The world of medicine has seen its share of miracle cures, from the polio vaccine to heart transplants. But all past achievements may pale in comparison to the work of Dr. Alice Krippin. Thank you so much for joining us this morning. Dr. Alice Krippin: Not at all. TV Personality: So, Dr. Krippin, give it to me in a nutshell. Dr. Alice Krippin: Well, the premise is quite simple - um, take something designed by nature and reprogram it to make it work for the body rather than against it. TV Personality: You're talking about a virus? Dr. Alice Krippin: Indeed, yes. In this case the measles, um, virus which has been engineered at a genetic level to be helpful rather than harmful. Um, I find the best way to describe it is if you can... if you can imagine your body as a highway, and you picture the virus as a very fast car, um, being driven by a very bad man. Imagine the damage that car can cause. Then if you replace that man with a cop... the picture changes. And that's essentially what we've done. TV Personality: And how many people have you treated so far? Dr. Alice Krippin: Well, we've had ten thousand and nine clinical trials in humans so far. TV Personality: And how many are cancer-free? Dr. Alice Krippin: Ten thousand and nine. TV Personality: So you have actually cured cancer. Dr. Alice Krippin: Yes, yes... yes, we have. [cuts to post-apocalyptic New York three years later] Neville: What the hell are you doing out here, Fred? Fred, if you're real, you better tell me right now! Woman Evacuee: [repeated] I'm not infected! [last lines] Anna: In 2009, a deadly virus burned through our civilization, pushing humankind to the edge of extinction. Dr. Robert Neville dedicated his life to the discovery of a cure and the restoration of humanity. On September 9th, 2012, at approximately 8:49 P.M., he discovered that cure. And at 8:52, he gave his life to defend it. We are his legacy. This is his legend. Light up the darkness. Marley: Look, Daddy, it's a butterfly! [makes a butterfly with her hands] |
