Revealing: When Fletcher is killed by King George, the spear can be seen as computer-generated; Fletcher swings his arm back and forth, through the spear. At one point, he even pauses, with the spear in his arm.

Continuity: In the scene where Hugh Jackman is roping the horse, the lasso is in his right hand, then in his left hand, then back in his right hand.

Continuity: In the scene where Nullah's mother is telling Mr. Fletcher lies about the cattle, you can see her leaning against the porch post in two different positions, in three quick shots - one with her arm low on the post, and the next shot with her arm higher up on the post.

Continuity: As Lady Ashley and Ramsden are walking in to the horse stables, while discussing the sale of Faraway Downs, you can see the background of a servant, along with a serving cart, and one closed door that would lead further in to the stables; as the two walk away from that scene, take notice that the background has changed - it now has a wheelbarrow full of hay, the door is open, and the servant and cart have disappeared.

Revealing: When Lady Ashley tells Drover not to bother returning, tracks made by very wide tires are visible in the road as he rides off. Vehicles of that era had very skinny tires, so the tracks are likely from the filmmaking crew.

Other: When Nullah rides the murdered Boss's horse to the station ranchhouse, he arrives at the hitching post with one rein already tied to the post.

Continuity: During the cattle drive Nullah starts out by riding a Skewbald (brown and white) horse but in subsequent shots the horse is Piebald (black and white). In later scenes the horse remains Piebald but the pattern of the markings changes between shots indicating that the pony was actually grey.

Continuity: In The Territory Hotel, after the bombing of Darwin, Drover invites his aboriginal friend into the bar for a drink. The barman pours half glasses of rum, but when they lift them to their lips, the glasses are full.

Factual error: Paspaley Pearls not established as a company in Darwin until 1946, yet one of the buildings bears a sign for this company.

Continuity: In the scene where Nullah is drawing in the sand, he looks up to see four zeros coming in for a dive attack; the following shot still has him looking up in the air, except this time he is looking at three zeros coming in for a dive attack.

Continuity: In the scene where Flynn is on the ground and the cattle are stampeding towards him, you can see him raise his chest up off of the ground to look back at the stampede; immediately, the next shot, you see Flynn looking back at the stampede with his face and chest more closer to the ground.

Factual error: When the first part of the "Wizard of Oz" is being shown at the outdoor theater, it appears black and white. Actually, the first part of the original version of the film was in sepia tone (brown and white).
