Mistake Continuity: Near the end of the film, as Bette Midler, Diane Keaton and Goldie Hawn sing their song, watch Goldie's shoes. For the first portion of the song, which takes place inside, she is wearing open-toed, spiked-heel shoes with multiple straps. Then, as they finish the song outside, she is wearing closed shoes with a much lower heel.

Mistake Continuity: When the three ladies are singing 'You Don't Own Me', they stand up and put their coats on. In the back shot, Goldie Hawn's hand gets caught in Diane Keaton's coat sash, but next front shot Goldie's hand is suddenly free.

Mistake Continuity: When Elisse, Annie and Brenda decide to make their own first wives club, Annie's glass of wine is almost empty, but when they throw their rings in it, it is almost full.

Mistake Continuity: Just after the funeral near the start of the film the three women go out to lunch. Goldie Hawn orders a vodka and when the waiter brings it she takes the glass in her hand. The next shot sees her picking it up from the table again.

Mistake Continuity: When they all are sitting down after the funeral, they order drinks. When the drinks arrive Goldie's drink is put down twice. Once when you are looking at her and once when you are looking from behind her.

Mistake Continuity: When Shelley is having lunch with Maggie Smith, after Maggie Smith says to the maid, "get the fork," the salad plate switches between being in the maid's left and right hand between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When everyone is arriving for the funeral, Maggie Smith spots Goldie Hawn and puts out her right hand. In the next close-up shot of the two, she raises her hand once again.

Mistake Continuity: At the big dinner party they have look out for the man with black hair, gray suit with a turtle neck. He appears in back to back to back scenes - one second he's walking across the room the next he is dancing and a mere second later he's outside smoking. Either he has a twin or he gets around quick.

Mistake Revealing: After Chris the daughter leaves a message on Annie's machine, the others call each other. Annie's voice is on the phone to talk to Brenda to Elise, but accidentally says her own (Annie's) name.

Mistake Continuity: When everyone is in Morty and Shelly's penthouse, Duardo runs up to the office after he talks to Maggie Smith on the phone. When he runs in, the door closes behind him. In the next shot, however, the door is wide open.

Mistake Continuity: When Brenda sees Morton at the department store with Shelly, Morton gives her a blouse on a hanger and tells her to buy it and you see Brenda holding it with one hand. The camera angle changes and you now see her holding it with both hands.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of the movie when the women are alone in the hall and singing, they are lip-singing to their recorded version. It's clearly the voices of the 3 women, but the music is out of sync with their lips.

Mistake Continuity: When they are talking about getting revenge on their ex-husbands, Bette stands up and starts talking. She puts her hands on her hips. Then in the next shot, they're not on her hips, but in the shot after that there they are again, back on her hips.

Mistake Continuity: When Annie and Brenda are first talking to Uncle Carmine, Annie's hands go between being up by her face and down by her sides between shots.

Mistake Continuity: At the start of the movie, Cynthia hands the maid some letters. Here Cynthia is holding a glass. When she goes out to the balcony she is holding a cigarette as well as a glass.

Mistake Continuity: The three women do parts of their "You Don't Own Me" act at two different points in the movie, both times supposedly doing the choreography they had worked out for Cynthia's birthday party, 25 years earlier. But the two instances differ in what Goldie Hawn and Bette Midler do right after the "Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba." The first time, they raise their hands over their heads. The second time, at the very end of the movie, they bend at the knees and put their hands together directly in front of Diane Keaton.
