Coach Carter (2005) - 15 mistakes

Continuity: Near the end of the film in the final game Ken Carter calls a time out. The clock stops on 36 seconds and after the time out it restarts again on 38 seconds.

Continuity: When the boy's uncle (the drug dealer) is shot, the boy runs to his uncle and lays his gun down on his left side. In a following shot, as the camera pans out, the gun is lying on his right side.

Continuity: When Kenyon talks to Kyra inside the restaurant, the straw in the drink on the table changes position several times, without anyone moving it.

Continuity: When Kenyon asks Kyra what she will do after college, the position of his grip on the milk bottle changes between shots.

Continuity: When the guy spits on Carter's car, the saliva on the window changes multiple times between shots.

Continuity: When 4 on Richmond fouls out of the game, there are 37.6 seconds left. A few moments later, as the Hercules players walk to the bench, there are 39 seconds left.

Continuity: Near the end of the Hercules game, Damien makes a lay-up with 31.7 seconds left. Only about five seconds later, the scoreboard shows that there are only 18.2 seconds left.

Continuity: When Richmond plays Arlington, there is a shot of them having 70 points. They then show the team making nine further baskets. Since each one would count for at least two points, there' no way that they would end up with only 82 points, which is what happens.

Continuity: In Richmond's first game back from the lockout, the score is shown at 70-51. But a few moments later, in an action shot of the game, the score is down to 67-51.

Continuity: In the third quarter of the final game, Richmond's score goes from 46 to 47 without anyone scoring.

Continuity: In the pre-season game during the opening credits, St. Francis' score on the board goes down from 51 to 47 between shots.

Continuity: During the game against St. Francis at the end of film we see an argument between two players from the opposing teams. As we see them being broken up, a player from each of the teams is in the middle of their two teams, one walking forwards towards his team, and the Richmond player walking backwards to his. While this whole argument is shown to be one sequence, we see the same shot played again about five seconds later, but this time from a birds eye view.

Continuity: In the Hercules game, when Lyle goes up to stop the ball from going out, the coach suddenly appears right next to him on the sideline between shots.

Continuity: In the locker room scene at the end, when the coach says "Well, not quite your storybook ending, huh?", Lyle is sitting down with a towel around his neck. Then in the very next shot, he is standing up with the towel in his hand.

Continuity: In the huddle during the Holiday Championship Game, Kenyon's headband reads "And 1" in the back, but it switches to the front, then to the back again.
