Mistake Continuity: When you see Bruce driving into the street with the Omni Presents building, you can see a shadow all down the side of the street. After he steps in the puddle, there is one dark patch of shadow, but none anywhere else.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Bruce and God are standing on water, after God reaches into the water to get the beaded bracelet, he puts the bracelet on his wrist. However, just as God turns to walk away the bracelet is in God's hand, not on his wrist. As you see God walk away he's looking down and it seems as if God is just then putting the bracelet on his wrist.

Mistake Continuity: Just before Bruce hands his camcorder to the kid, to videotape the discovery of the body of Jimmy Hoffa. The eyepiece instantly points up and away from it, from one shot to the next, yet Bruce didn't move it.

Mistake Continuity: When we first see the "homeless man" holding the "R EWE BLIND" sign, his right hand is on the top, about an inch from the edge. The camera cuts to a view from behind him, and his right hand is now slightly wrapped around the top right edge.

Mistake Continuity: There are two scenes in the movie where Grace is noted to have donated blood in the dialogue, one near the beginning, and one, the final scene. The blood donation is a fairly important turning point for Bruce's rehabilitation. And yet, neither of Grace's bare inner arms in either scene show any iodine, bruises, holes, or perhaps the easiest to spot, any small bandage that would result from blood donation.

Mistake Continuity: When Bruce in the diner, he puts cream in his coffee. In the shots following, his coffee is black. And when she brings the soup, there's a lot more coffee in the cup.

Mistake Continuity: When Bruce hit the lamppost the smoke from his car went upwards. When the truck goes past there is only a little bit of smoke and it is much lower.

Mistake Continuity: Grace and her sister are at the Asian spa getting massages. The Asian woman walking on Grace's back steps all the way up to the base of her neck. The camera cuts to a different angle and the woman's feet are back down to the lower/middle portion of Grace's back.

Mistake 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.

Mistake 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.

Mistake Continuity: When Jennifer Aniston hands Jim Carrey the pictures to look through he flips through them and then when he picks them up in the next shot he is still on the first picture.

Mistake Continuity: While Bruce stirs his coffee, there is no napkin on his left. After the waitress walks towards him, one appears from nowhere.

Mistake Continuity: In the beginning of the hospital scene Bruce's head bandage covers his left ear almost completely, later only half of it.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Bruce complains about his mediocre life Grace's hair gets tucked behind her hair without her touching it.

Mistake Continuity: When Bruce is doing his cookie story and he is running through the line of children pouring milk, the jug he is pouring it from somehow keeps refilling itself from shot to shot.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Bruce makes Evan Baxter spout gibberish on the live newscast, the water glass at Evan's right elbow moves between shots. Sometimes it is closer to his elbow, sometimes farther to Evan's right. The glass also changes position in reference to the graphic projected behind Evan, although it appears that the graphic moves to the right also.
