Continuity: When Tommy and Darwin Mayflower are in the back of the limo, Darwin dives out and the door slams immediately before Tommy has time to catch it. The shot changes to outside the limo and Darwin is just now jumping from the limo. It is not just the same shot from a different angle because this time the door stays open much longer, long enough for the limo to drive out of the shot. From this angle there would have been more than enough time for Tommy to grab the door.

Factual error: Bruce says his coffee tastes funny and Anna says it was the ethyl chloride in it. Firstly, ethyl chloride isn't soluble and secondly you would need much more than a sip to have any noticable effect, let alone instant unconciousness.

Continuity: The opening voice over says it is 1481. Later it says "Exactly 500 years later" setting the film in 1981. Bruce says that, while in prison he missed seeing E.T., which was released in 1982. If it wasn't for the 'Exactly' then I'd forgive them.

Continuity: When Anna and Hudson are landing after flying, you can see some kids and in one shot, a boy is jumping and another one standing up. Then once again you see Hudson and Anna and then the kids - it is the same shot when the boy is jumping and the other standing up. They show it twice.

Other: When Leonardo lifts up the bar he has just fashioned, you can hear a couple of people in the background say "Gold" where the others are and correctly saying "Oro" (Since the Italian word for gold is Oro).

Continuity: During the scene where Almond Joy innoculates Hudson Hawk with a sleeping serum you can see that the plunger of the syringe was never pushed down. On top of that she doesn't even leave the syringe in enough to create the illusion that she administered the shot.

Factual error: Leonardo's workshop is shown with a model of one of his flying machine ideas hanging from the ceiling. This is in 1481 but Leonardo did not start his studies into flight until about 1485.

Continuity: When Bruce is being towed by the ambulance although the sheet starts ripping in the middle, the knot gives out and it becomes totally detached from the ambulance. Some subsequent shots show the ambulance with part of the sheet trailing in and some shots show it with no sheet.

Revealing: Alfred's sword leaves a large dent when it gets stuck in the wood. A few shots later, the sword moves, the dent dissapears and the wood actually wobbles as if made of rubber.

Revealing: When Bruce is making a phone call, the glass of the phone booth is normal. Just before he swings the blond thug around into it, a pane is shown that is obviously fake - it is discoloured and not smooth.
