Bruce Almighty (2003) - 75 mistakes
Directed by Tom Shadyac, starring Jennifer Aniston, Jim Carrey, Morgan Freeman, Philip Baker Hall, Steve Carell (add more)
Revealing: In the scene where Bruce is calling the pager number, if you look closely, the phone is a fake or not working, because when he is dialing, the phone is suppose to be backlit and is not. Plus, there is a sticker on the phone LCD which is suppose to look like he dialed the number. The numbers are on there before he is finished dialing and the sound doesn't match his finger movements.
Continuity: When Bruce is fired the security throw him out and a box with his stuff after him. The camera cuts to a close-up of his head next to a photograph of Walter Cronkite. Then there is a wider shot of him slowly getting up, and his stuff is scattered around much more and the photograph is gone.
Visible crew/equipment: When Bruce is God and he is checking his prayers, he starts typing really fast to get rid of all the emails. When he's finished new emails come up and when he stands up, for a split second a microphone is visible over his head. Note: this does not happen on the DVD. The visible microphone was most likely an error by the projectionist at the movie theatre.
Continuity: When God pages Bruce, Bruce says, "Hello 776-2323", only the number on the pager says 555-0123. Originally, the number on the pager was 776-2323. However, this caused a few problems (people with that number got calls), so it was changed, but without the appropriate voiceover. This is only the case on some DVDs - it's been changed completely on others.
Factual error: When Steve Carrell is standing-by to read his news bulletin, the Floor Manager cues him to begin by counting down from 5 seconds to zero. In reality, a Floor Manager only ever counts out loud the numbers 5 and 4, while 3, 2 and 1 are communicated via hand signals. This is to prevent the Floor Manager's voice being picked up on air when the presenter's mike is faded up. This error occurs in countless films.
