Goofs
Errors in geography: Right after the Stakeout scene, the woman is seen walking away. The scene the cuts from a fishing port in Osaka to what is suppose to be the Osaka City Center area. If you look closely at the signs in the city scene, You would be able to tell that the location was switched to Kobe. See more »Quotes
Matsumoto Masahiro: "Perhaps you should think less of yourself and more of your group, try to work like in Japanese. I grew up with your soldiers; you were wise then. Now - music and movies are all America is good for. We make the machines, we build the future, we won the peace.Nick Conklin: "And if there was ONE of you guys who had an original idea, you'd be so tight that you couldn't even pull it out of your ass!"
