Stealing Harvard (2002) - 10 mistakes
starring Dennis Farina, Jason Lee, Tom Green
Deliberate "mistake": When John and his sister Patty are watching the old videos, it shows John saying that he would pay for his niece's college education and the camera is showing them from the side. John says "And that's a promise from your uncle John." and the camera is in front of him showing his face. There is no way they could change camera angles like that in a home movie.
Continuity: When Tom Green is trying to break a window to make it look like someone broke in, he uses several chairs to break it, but has trouble. One of the chair he throws bounces off and hits a mannequin and knocks it down. A few minutes later,(during a shot from the outside through the window at Tom Green), the mannequin is once again standing. Then it goes back to being knocked down once again.
Factual error: John's horse wins the race, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he gets exactly $30,000. As far as I know, there are some taxes that must be paid upon winning. Submitted by Grigory the Wanderer
Continuity: The scene where Jason Lee tells Tom Green to break a window at Jason Lee's workplace. Tom Green tries his hardest to break the glass and we continuously see the dog trying to get out of the office. If you look closely you can see a desk that changes positions - it even covers the dog to where you can just see his head.
