  • Ray kisses Anna fully enough to suggest unexplained sexual tension among the three leads.
  • Gonzalez is described as running amok with “just no laws” even though the police keep catching him.
  • Cars staying aligned on train tracks during a chase feels mechanically implausible.
  • Police firing aimlessly at escaping vehicles is questioned.
  • After both detectives are shot and Anna jumps between elevators, choosing to remain cops contradicts the Key West plan.
  • Danny is shot in the chest by another officer without meaningful accountability.
  • The finale has people firing past one another at implausibly close range.
