The Whole Nine Yards (2000) - 41 mistakes

Continuity: When Oz is telling Jimmy about his father in law's loan you can see a man standing beside him turning his head to the left. When it cuts to a closeup the man is looking forward.

Continuity: When Matthew Perry is talking to Bruce Willis after their drive and he's sitting on the ledge, when he says "no, I live here with my wife" his hands are either side of him on the ledge or together in his lap, depending on the angle.

Continuity: When Oz is at Gogolak's house you can see a bottle of vodka on Gogolak's table. When Oz leaves the bottle is gone and now there is a jar of water on the table that wasn't there earlier.

Continuity: When Oz and Frankie gets in to the hotel room where Jimmy is waiting for them, Oz bumps into Frankie and knocks over a lamp. He gets up holding the lamp in front of him. The way he holds it changes during the shots, and the lamp shade changes position.

Audio problem: When Oz lies in the dentist's chair he has a mouthpiece (connected with anesthetic) lying on his forehead. When he gets up the mouthpiece falls off his head with a great "POP" sound effect. This sound would only occur if there were a vacuum, which there wasn't.

Deliberate "mistake": Jimmy catches a fly in the air and puts it in his mouth. He then spits it out with great power. You then hear a "Bzzzzz." assuredly made by the fly. How can a fly flap its wings when spit out in that velocity?

Continuity: When Oz gets to Jimmy's house, you see Jill holding a gun at chest level and Jimmy pointing a gun her direction. When it cuts, Jill holds the gun at shoulder level and Jimmy's gun is lowered.

Continuity: At Jimmy's house Jimmy is having a martini. He empties the glass and puts it on the table. Then in two shots later he empties it again.

Continuity: When Oz's wife is having sex with her new contract killer you see his necklace. Its position changes between the shots.

Audio problem: When Oz and Gogolak gets into the car Gogolak puts a cigarette in his mouth, at the same time he says "You know, I got the same car". His lips aren't moving and he is lighting his cigarette.

Continuity: When the bad guys get to Jimmy's house one of them tries to open the door wearing black gloves. In the next shot you see him trying to pick the door with white doctor gloves. Why did he change?

Continuity: In the scene where Jill distracts the contract killer nude, her hand with a gun changes position between the shots.

Continuity: When Oz gets to the dentist's office the undercover cop lies dead in the chair facing straight left. In the next shot his head has turned.

Continuity: In the scene where Jimmy gets the molotov cocktail the piece of cloth is pointing down. In the next shot the cloth is pointing further up.

Continuity: When the undercover cop finds the tape recorder in the car he uses a white handkerchief in his left hand. In the next shot suddenly a handkerchief in his right hand appears.

Visible crew/equipment: Near the end at the fine art museum, the camera moves in for a close up of Oz in the Beatle. When it does, you can make out the camera in the Beatle's paintwork.

Continuity: Jimmy's necklace change from being under his shirt to being on top of it between shots.

Continuity: When Cynthia and Jill discuss the money in the bank they are both in the visible shot. In the next shot Cynthia is gone.

Continuity: In the scene where Cynthia agrees to marry Oz, you can see her hair change position in between the shots.

Revealing: When one of the civil cops knocks at Jimmy's door it is obvious that someone behind it (from the movie crew) opens it. He doesn't knock hard enough to make the door slide open by itself.
