Mistake Continuity: In the shot in the bathroom, Tanya has a small diamond necklace but in the next shot in the bedroom the diamond appears larger.

Mistake Continuity: When Sophie is finally dressed for her wedding, the gauzey material is predominately over her right shoulder/breast. Next shot it is over her left. When she gets on the donkey, it is completely off her right side and her bra shows.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Donna is telling Tanya about Sophie's dad arriving, stage lights can be seen in Donna's glass.

Mistake Continuity: During the wedding scene, all three of Sophie's possible fathers stand up and gather behind her on the aisle. In one closeup shot Sophie turns around to say something to Sam - in this shot the right part of her hair is behind her right shoulder. In the next shot as she is turning around back to face the priest, her hair is suddenly neatly in front of her right shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: During 'Winner Takes it All', at the start of the song, Donna has her hands up near her chest, in the next shot they are down by her side.

Mistake Continuity: During Dancing Queen Donna is jumping on the bed. Between the camera angles, her position keeps changing.

Mistake Continuity: In the Souper Trouper scene, when we see Dona, Tanya and Rosie raising their left hands, we see that Rosie is just behind Dona's sleeve. However, in the next shot, in which we only see Dona, we can't see Rosie or her shadow at all.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When singing Dancing Queen an extra is seen falling off a ladder. If you look at the front of his shirt, a safety cable can be seen.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of Voulez Vous, the people pick up Sophie. In one shot her hair falls down to her shoulders, camera cuts and it falls back down again.

Mistake Continuity: Just before the song "Does Your Mother Know" on the beach, the items on the bar change their position during the scene, from shot to shot. For instance, the bucket of ice, Tanya's bag and drink, etc.

Mistake Continuity: Soon after arriving, Tanya and Rosie are at a bar and suddenly Donna comes out in tears. Tanya is just receiving a cocktail from Pepper, the bartender. Rosie and Tanya then hurry after Donna - and during the rest of this scene, the amount of drink in Tanya's cocktail keeps lowering then rising.

Mistake Continuity: When singing Mama Mia the first time, the position of the mum's arms are constantly changing between shots.

Mistake Continuity: During "Money, Money, Money" Donna walks into the kitchen and all the staff are sitting at the table. They hurriedly get up and start working, and a newspaper is left right beside the large fish on the table. When the shot goes back with the table visible, the newspaper has gone.

Mistake Continuity: When Tanya first arrives, at the end of the song, her arms constantly change place between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When they are singing Does Your Mother Know You're Out, a man is seen getting out of water and then lying in the sand. When he stands up no sand sticks to him, which it should.

Mistake Continuity: When Tanya and Rosie arrive at the island, they get off the boat and walk up the pier. They break into song with Donna (who is walking towards them) but as the shot keeps changing, the two old men standing on the pier disappear and re-appear every time the camera changes.

Mistake Continuity: During the last half of the movie Donna wears a red sweeping shawl over her shoulders, with her outfit for Sophie's wedding. Many times the position of the shawl is not consistent during shots - most noticeable after she walks Sophie down the aisle, then sits down.

Mistake Continuity: When Donna is dancing to "Dancing Queen," her hair is all messed up. But in the next shot, her hair is not messed up.

Mistake Continuity: When Rosie and Donna are trying to get Tanya's boots off, Tanya is lying flat on her back. The camera does an instant cut and she is now propped up.

Mistake Continuity: During the wedding of Donna and Sam, the rings on Donna's fingers are disappearing and reappearing.
