It made no sense that no-one else was asked and the matter was barely referred to. - he can't have had a proper shower for years if he only just found the implant. - he needs a knife to get it from his own back yet he can nip it out from Shaw's back with his teeth - why not just kill him? - Shaw. why the thing in his head? He already had one in his back - the electronics guy. He disappears. Nothing is said and the view of his area is one not previously used before. It seemed very token. - the painted women. Where did they come from? - the 'feds'. The woman in the background during an interview. Like that would happen - they'd be after every freak in the US - if they knew he was trouble and they didn't want to kill him, why let him near Shaw? - a funny grin from the floor means "Hey, why don't you shoot me and my mom because that will make everything better" when he has been told already he has one target. - one bullet which is meant to kill one person, no mention is made that it's special yet it kills 2 people - 2 people fall to the floor and no-one notices for a while - he takes ages to start to life the gun to shoot himself - the fed comes in and shoots him in the left shoulder but he has the gun in the right and could still shoot himself. And the above was from one viewing :) Plot Holes:

Never seen a "red tag" ... I think the main anti-theft device used here is the little stick-on thing put inside the case that sets off the alarm at the door. They kill that by swiping it over a demagnetizer of some sort at the register. I enjoyed the original Manchurian Candidate more than the remake.
