Continuity mistake: When in the club AJ introduces the lady friends who are totally not prostitutes, Ben has both hands on the Assface phone in the wider shot but just one hand on it in the closer angle that leaves his head out of frame. (00:36:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ben is taking a picture of AJ between two strippers and their gazongas. AJ, facing some stereophonic chest compression, says "I can't breath no more"; next to Ben's phone you can see the non-prostitute holds her drink with the right hand. In the last shot that girl is holding it in the left hand. (00:36:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: AJ calls for the toast for Ben; the escort sitting next to Kevin Hart claps her hands along with the others for "Toast! Toast!", but in the following shot her hand that was up in the air to clap before the cut is suddenly back on his shoulder. (00:37:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Waiting outside the club after AJ's escape, James and Ben are talking and Ben is trying to say that he totally did not want to have a good time with hot women around. In Ice Cube's reaction shot Kevin Hart brings his hand forward, but he still has his arm stretched out in the next shot. A moment later Olivia Munn arrives, and there's another slight continuity jump; she dismounts from the pick-up and Kevin Hart looks away from her turning towards Ice Cube, but in the closer angle that follows, he's staring at her, hand raised. (00:39:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Kevin Hart and Ice Cube meet Olivia Munn after the car explosion after the bachelor party club scene, Olivia Munn's hands change position between shots to either by her side, hands on hips, or arms crossed, with no time between to change position. (00:40:30)

Continuity mistake: When Ben picks his jacket up and walks past Maya and James to go towards his car, Olivia Munn goes from having her arms down her sides to a pose with her hand on her hips, instantaneously. (00:41:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the car bomb stunt, Kevin Hart slides off the hood twice in two separate shots and gets up leaning against the police car with his left hand in two different spots, curled also differently. (00:42:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The brothers in law bicker in front of the massage parlor. There's a specific shot when Kevin Hart takes about 3 seconds to talk about Cory being "the devil's spawn with lady parts." When the camera is back solely on Ice Cube, the same big dude with a black tanktop who was walking behind him is still walking, but starting from the same exact spot as earlier. He made no progress at all while he was off-camera. (00:45:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At "Beach Kitten Inc.", the receptionist offers a bottle of water. Behind her, a girl wearing a orange bikini is the same girl that is walking behind Ice Cube in the reverse shot a moment later. (00:46:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: James' approach to Tasha from the swimsuit models joint is failing right from the start, and his 'brother' takes over. He puts a hand on his shoulder, it's visible in the next shot that he lowers his arm, but he's still in the same position as before with the hand on his shoulder at the next cut. (00:47:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the default Apple ringtone plays, there are continuity errors with Tasha's hands. She has her left hand on her mouth (you can tell even if she's in the foreground) when he points out what the sound is, all of a sudden. And seconds later when he says "That costs absolutely nothing!" her raised arm switches from right to left. (00:48:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At the beach booth, AJ makes Ben pick up a can of Fanta Grape from a pile of 6 (3 on bottom 1 on top). Ben picks up the one on top and puts it back on the counter by the rest of the pile. The can disappears in the wider angle and is back on top of the pyramid right at the cut. (00:51:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the car chase, a bad guy shoots Ben and James' car saying it's "too easy", since Ben is signaling his turns. In that sequence you can notice the natural light changes suddenly between shots, and the street in the background is not the same, nor the intersection where the turn happens. (00:52:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Ben spits out of the trashed hairy taco, extras around him have changed position - just look at the girl in a purple bikini on the beach volley court, the ball she is holding disappears between shots. (00:53:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The brothers in law have just retrieved AJ from the beach, but baddies on a BMW start chasing them. In close-ups James is holding the wheel using his left hand, since he is using his right to push Ben out of harm's way, but in the one external view of the action in between those closer angles, the driver is holding on top of the steering wheel a right hand. (00:53:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the car-chasing scene with the Jaguar, the pursuer drive three different cars, In real-life they drive BMW e92 M3 coupes, in game-graphic BMW M4 coupes. And that one which crashes right into the Volvo is a BMW e46 coupe. (00:54:00 - 00:56:40)

Continuity mistake: During the gun standoff at Alonso's, AJ knocks off the table a set of tools. The action happens across two shots that come from two separate takes: AJ in the first one is turning towards the box and blatantly knocks it down himself, while in the second, he's looking away the whole time. Also, during the "What the hell?" moment it's on the floor, closed, when it obviously landed face down, open. (00:58:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the sequence with Alonso holding his chest where the bullet hit the vest, Arturo Del Puerto's hair is parted in different wisps above his right eye depending on the camera angle (each probably shooting one or more different takes of the same scene). He's also holding his hand off and then above his shirt. (00:59:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Ben walks over to Alonso to apologize for shooting him, he's pointing at him in a shot, but he is not in the previous and following. (00:59:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ben is posing as the Nigerian consul. James punches him in the face one time; after he says "Oh, God", there's a close-up of the bouncer looking flummoxed - notice that at the edge of the frame Ben's got James' hand on his face. In the next shot he is propping him up under the armpit, though, and in the close-up prelude to the second punch he's again with his hands on his face. (01:01:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the car-chasing scene with the Jaguar, the pursuer drive three different cars, In real-life they drive BMW e92 M3 coupes, in game-graphic BMW M4 coupes. And that one which crashes right into the Volvo is a BMW e46 coupe. (00:54:00 - 00:56:40)
