When Alvin & Ramundo are fighting, Julio pulls out a gun and we hear the sound of the hammer being cocked. However, the ensuing shot has Julio holding the gun to Alvin's head, and the hammer is not cocked at all. Few shots later, we hear the sound of the hammer being cocked again, and this time it is shown cocked against Alvin's head.

When Alvin hot wires the van to get the explosives away from the people, the steering column is locked preventing use of the steering wheel or the gear shift. He couldn't have driven it off.

As Alvin is being confronted by the running man in city square, you can clearly see that it is packed full of people. In the next shot when you see Alvin picking up the bag, the city square is empty, with not a person but him in sight.

Alvin: When you get your money, I think you need to get an anger management class.

Edgar Clenteen: A wolf will starve itself to death rather than make a mistake. You have to lay down a scent that smells real from far away. And the bait has to be fresh and untouched by human hands. Make no mistake about it, we are hunting a wolf.
