Mistakes

In the beginning of the movie when the crazy lady goes after Remy and Emile with the shot gun, she fires three shots at them: two in the wall and one towards the ceiling when Emile is crossing the banister. After Emile crosses the banister, look at the ceiling around the chandelier in the next shot. There are already 4 shotgun holes in the ceiling. See more...

Trivia

Once again, another reference to "The Incredibles": before Remmy & Linguini go into the kitchen for the first time, Linguini pulls his pants open, and we can see his boxers. His boxers, have the Incredibles logo on them. See more...

When Linguini got the jar that he accidentally threw in the water, there is not a single trace of wetness on the jar, not even a drop of water. [That's because the whole jar wasn't in the water, it was floating on top so any water that was on it was on the bottom and it's clear that you see water dripping when luiguni picks up the jar.]
Edit
In the beginning when the crazy shotgun lady is after Remy and Emile, she uses a shotgun that holds two shells. Yet she is somehow able to fire multiple blasts without reloading. [The shotgun is consistently shown to be pump-action. Such weapons hold more than two shells.]
Edit
When Remy is reunited with Emile, it makes no sense for him to go in and break into the food safe when he's got so much left from the bundle Linguini gave him. Of course it moves the plot along, but it still makes no sense. [It makes perfect sense. Rémy wanted Émile to experience the best food available, to make him realize what good cooking is all about, and did not think the cheese and grapes he had were up to this standard. So he decided to go get something much better from the food safe.]

In the scene where Remy and Emile are spotted by the old lady in the cottage, she pulls a gun out from her right. As she gets the gun an umbrella flies towards her. But in the next scene, even though the gun and the umbrella were apart, The umbrella has ended up in the barrel of it. [You must watch carefully, but you can see that there is already an umbrella in the barrel of the gun when she pulls it out.]
Edit
Being the small rat Remy is, he wouldn't have been able to generate enough momentum to move the book AND break through the window when he's being chased by the crazy shotgun lady. [Adrenalin is an amazing stimulus, one that almost all members of the human and animal kingdom share physiologically. It can allow the frail elderly lift cars from loved ones and it can also permit a rodent of any size the ability to generate all sorts of momentum.]
Edit Corrected by OneHappyHusky
In the scene near the beginning where the old lady is shooting at the rats they start escaping through the windows at the front of the house, but in the opening shot of the film (which chronologically happens at the same time) they are nowhere to be found. [All the mice are going out out underneath the front door and window facing the front of the house. Remy jumps out the window over the sink, which faces the back of the house.]
Edit
In the scene when Remy finds the documents proving that Linguini is Gusteau's son, the advertising cutouts of Gusteau change positions in the background several times. [I've seen the movie several times and checked for this mistake. But all the cutouts remain in the same positions in that scene, though they do change positions throughout the movie.]
Edit
When Linguini surprises Remy cooking, there's nothing visible in Remy's hands. In the next shot, some herbs are protruding. [He had the herbs in his hand before he was surprised. He then crushed them in his hands, which is why you cannot see them. Watch closely.]
Edit
French star ratings only go up to three stars. However Gesteau gets a five star rating. This is maybe because English people would not understand why a three star rating is superior in French guides. [This is an absurd generalisation. The well-known Michelin rating system uses three stars as a maximum, but other rating systems use different methods, such as awarding points (as in the prestigious Gault Millau guide) or an alternative number of symbols (not limited solely to stars) as a potential maximum. The rating system is never named within the film and thus cannot be identified with any real-life rating method and, in all likelihood, is intended to be entirely fictional; as such, it cannot be said that giving Gusteau's restaurant five stars is an error.]
Edit Corrected by Tailkinker
There are multiple times when mice are shown to be cooking while standing on the edges of pots and pans. Example: when Remy is first making the soup he his standing on the edge of the pot. However, when a pot is heated, all metal parts become hot. A mouse standing on the rim would have burned his paws off. [The same probability goes for any rat surviving a lightning bolt or a gun being fired at him. In short: this is "magical reality" and not real life.]
