Divergent

Revealing mistake: When Four injects Tris with the serum before taking the test for the first time, it is very apparent the syringe is not injected into Tris' neck. The tip of the syringe is merely just touching the skin of Tris' neck and the syringe is shown moving around her neck. (01:07:30)

Casual Person

Revealing mistake: At the end of the first fighting session, after Tris' opponent has Tris on the ground, Eric gives Tris the signal to get up and the opponent punches her one last time. It is noticeable that the final punch does not hit Tris, but she still reacts anyway. (00:36:15)

Casual Person

Continuity mistake: At the choosing ceremony, people cut themselves on the hand and put it in the bowl of each section they want to join. However, when Tris chooses Dauntless, the bowls look clean and the knife is clean. There hasn't been enough time to wash them.

Tris: They're gonna kill me.
Four: I'm not gonna let that happen.

More quotes from Divergent

Question: Before Tris went on the zip line, why didn't anybody tell her there would be obstacles in her way that could have killed her if she didn't avoid them?

Dano

Answer: There aren't really obstacles. On a zip wire, there isn't really much scope for manoeuvrability. You follow the wire.

Answer: That and they do crazy stuff like this all the time so not telling her about these obstacles is keeping in character as they leap into everything seemingly blindly.

Rob245

Answer: That was the Dauntless way - you have to be prepared for the unexpected and meet the challenge. Just because her team won does not mean the competition is entirely over, nor can one assume it's an easy ride to the finish line.
