Mistake Continuity: When Joe is on the yacht talking to his father, Joe is mixing up martinis, pours them, and adds an olive to one, and then an olive to the other. The camera cuts away to his father and then cuts back and now the second martini has no olive, so Joe adds an olive again.

Mistake Continuity: Tom hands the little girl a red ring to toss on the bottles and you see a green one land (different colour ring leaves her hand and lands on the bottle). The rings keep changing colour throughout the scene.

Mistake Continuity: In the dinner party scene where Meg discovers who Tom really is, they are seen walking around a buffet table filling their plates with food.  The food on Tom's plate changes in quantity and placement of items on the plate from scene to scene.

Mistake Continuity: When Tom Hanks meets Meg Ryan in the coffee shop, while she's waiting for her e-mail friend, Tom takes off his overcoat, but in the next shot he takes it off again.
