Visible crew/equipment: In the firefight scene, when Rocco and the brothers walk out of the house and see Il Duce, crew members are visible in the sunglasses. The most prominent example is in the head-on shot of the three men with Rocco in the middle. A man in a red jacket holding the camera is visible along with a half-dozen other crew members. Several of the shots between the timestamps have crew members' reflections visible in the glasses.

Revealing: In the scene where Rocco kills the two 'goodfellas' in the restaurant, he hides his gun by holding the gun behind his coat. Before the shot switches, you see the gun go off, yet the hammer is down the entire time. The revolver could have been single or double action, but the hammer would still have to have gone back. It is easier to see the gun go off on the NC-17 version or on the deleted scene, but you do see the flash on the R version.

Other: In the scene where the brothers are going to kill the "fag man", the fourth man has his shoulders perpendicular to the brothers in the center of the room but the bullet goes straight through his chest. The shot wasn't even at a close enough angle to go through his chest like that.

Continuity: The bag in which Pappa Joe Yakavetta's sandwich arrives changes in different shots. When the camera faces him, the bag is angled toward him; when the camera is behind him, the bag is angled out, away from him.

Continuity: When they bring coffee to the brothers in the police station, one of the guys holds up the tray and there are three cups visible. The brothers take two and walk away. The next shot is from in front of the brothers, where you can see, over their shoulder, that there is no one holding up the coffee tray. The next shot is of the group again, and the tray is back to being held up.

Continuity: In the Don's house toward the end of the film (just after the saints are captured in the basement) the Don lights up a cigar and says he's leaving. When he steps outside and gets into his car, you can see a cigarette in his mouth, not the cigar he lit.

Factual error: When the news reporter is at the Lakeview Lunch which is supposedly on Beacon Hill in Boston, below her name it says South Boston, as if that's where they were reporting from.

Visible crew/equipment: When all the news casters are trying to talk to William Dafoe, after he lets the second man in the door you can see a cameraman and a person next to him in the reflection of the door. (It is too close to be a news reporter).

Other: When Agent Smecker is dressed as a woman and has made it inside Papa Joe's house, when he kills the first man, the gun shot is loud, and he screams as he shoots. When he shoots the second guy, the gunshot is muted, letting you know that there is a silencer on it. Also, the second guy would've heard the first gunshot because it was so loud, and the scream, and would have come to investigate.

Revealing: Prior to the scene where the trio raids the card game, the three bring the wife, hands bound, to enter the security code. When the guy "cuts" the duct tape, look closely at the wife's hands, the knife never actually cuts the tape; rather he pretends to cut and simply lifts the tape... and voila, her hands are free.

Continuity: As Rocco is about to shoot the two young peons and the bartender in the Lakeview, he aims his gun from behind the left panel of his coat. He then fires, which should leave a hole going through his coat, yet none can be seen for the rest of the movie.

Factual error: In the scene, where Paul Smecker is checking the green trash-bin, he finds a bullet from Ivan Checkov's gun. Nevertheless, earlier (in the plot), or later (in subsequence of the scenes), in the scene, where Connor MacManus is falling down with toilet on Russians' backs, Ivan Checkov, while the toilet hits his bald head, is shooting with his gun, but he misses the trash-bin - the angle of shooting is obviously too extreme to hit the bin.
