No Retreat, No Surrender (1986)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jason does his own training by kicking and dodging the moving sandbags hanging down, he finishes by kicking each bag individually. Look closely - one of the bags is only being held together by a thread, so when Jason kicks it, the bag splits open quite easly. (01:06:45)

Suggested correction: For what it is worth, it is said (but I don't know the original source) that it was not intentional and it ripped open on its own during that take and it was left in the movie, so the movie prop was not created with that purpose but just wore out on its own.

Continuity mistake: When Scott bullies RJ outside the burger place, Scott is in one side of the table and is kicked by RJ in the stomach, RJ falls to the floor and in the next shot Scott is now beside him.

Suggested correction: We lose sight of Scott for long enough that he could have gotten around the table.

Continuity mistake: When Scott is using the hose he is sitting on a chair with his house in the background. In the next shot the house is gone and there are some trees. The his dad yells at him and the house is back again.

Suggested correction: You probably hadn't a chance to rewatch carefully. The camera angle changed more or less from Dad's perspective a bit raised, and so you don't see the house but the lawn. All the green in those shots is not trees but rather the lawn, with the same shadows (more or less, the light does not quite match but it's very minor) you see previously.

Revealing mistake: At the beginning, when Ivan and the two New York businessmen approach the school, the three are seen through a window from inside the school. If you pay close attention to the reflection of the students in the window, you can see that they are in no way doing anything related to what is being heard inside the school. After the class is dismissed and starts to leave, we see Ivan and the two businessmen begin to enter the school, and if you look in the window, the class is still going hard. (00:03:00)
