Police Academy 3: Back in Training (1986) - 10 mistakes
These mistakes are currently being ordered by time. Entries without times will appear at the end.
Continuity: At the Policeperson's Dance, Copeland spills punch over the Commissioner's wife's white dress. As the camera view switches, her dress is already stained before she is splashed.
Continuity: When the wimpy police officer and his wife are arguing about her joining the police academy, she backs his police car out of their driveway and a hubcap falls off. Later on, though, it mysteriously reappears in later scenes.
Continuity: At the beginning, Tackleberry jumps out of a sand trap and his face and body are covered in sand. When he starts the attack a couple of seconds later, he's spotless.
Revealing: When a baddie in a red jacket repeatedly punches Hightower, who's in the water, the fist always stops about 15 cm from his face.
Revealing: A thick cheap makeup appears over Mauser's eyebrows to simulate they're missing.
Continuity: When Proctor leaves the hotel room while waiting for Mahoney's "aerobics instructor" to get ready, he's supposed to be naked. However, if you look closely in the shots leading up to his getting into the elevator, you can see he's wearing a pair of light flesh-coloured briefs.
Factual error: During the speedboat chase scene, the Toronto skyline is visible, including the CN Tower. This movie is supposed to take place in an American city.
Other: The computer 'keyboard' in the control room is in fact a Commodore 64 Home Computer.
Continuity: When the new recruits come off the bus at the beginning, Mahoney is talking to them through his megaphone. Towards the end of his speech, the camera angle changes and we see Mahoney standing with his arms down beside Hooks, yet we can still hear him speaking through the megaphone. How did he achieve that?
