Continuity mistake: Frank and Tony are talking with Flo and Tony is holding a bong. Through most of the scene, the bong is in Tony's right hand. But in several shots, it switches to his left hand. In one part in fact showing a side angle, Tony has the bong in his left hand and holding it on his leg. It then cuts to a close up and Tony points to Frank with the same but now empty hand. (00:05:40)

Continuity mistake: While talking with Flo, Frank muses about how Tony is fixated on Danaka smuggling drugs in her genitals. He has his left hand up in the air holding a cigarette that is lit. It cuts to Tony saying "I'm not fixated" then back to Frank from a further shot. Now his left hand is under his right hand in his lap, no cigarette. A couple shots later, his left hand is up in the air again holding a cigarette. (00:05:35)

Continuity mistake: In the scene after Frank and Fritz make their drug deal, Tony hands Flo the bong and asks her about the girl smuggling drugs. When she says she wouldn't swallow it because it might burst, she is looking at Tony, and her eyes are open. It then cuts to a different angle of her and suddenly she is looking down with her eyes shut. (00:05:10)

Continuity mistake: In the place that looks like a dry cleaner's, Frank is talking to Milo, and Hakan on the couch. Milo makes a crack about Frank's convertible and Frank just fake laughs, and then looks at Hakan on the couch while laughing. It cuts to a close up, and suddenly Frank is looking at Milo and then looks at Hakan on the couch a second time. (00:16:45)

Continuity mistake: During the first scene of the movie where Frank and Tony are negotiating a drug deal with Fitz, the length of the cigarette in Fitz's hand keeps changing between shots, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. Fitz also keeps changing how he is holding it between shots. (00:02:30 - 00:04:45)
23rd Jul 2013
Continuity mistake: When Frank and Tony arrive at Fitz's house, they stand next to the speaker com awaiting Fitz' answer. Frank is wearing a blue shirt and it is relatively still with wrinkles and folds. But when Fitz answers the com and asks "who is it?", it cuts to a closer shot of Frank. Suddenly the wind is blowing his shirt quite hard. (00:02:20)
23rd Jul 2013
Continuity mistake: Right at the beginning of the film, Frank and Tony are in a car driving and talking about Danaka smuggling drugs in her genitals. In one shot, Tony is holding his cigarette in his left hand. A couple shots later, within a very shot time, it is suddenly in his right hand. In the same sequence, his right hand holding the cigarette is low and close to his lap. The very next shot is a close up, and suddenly his right hand is up close to his face. (00:01:40)

Continuity mistake: During Braniac's attack on Metropolis, a few of his drones get inside the Daily Planet and attempt to go after Lois, Jimmy, and the other guy. They quickly shut the door and prop a file cabinet against it as a barricade. The one they push against the door has just two solid drawers on it. There are two more files cabinets with 6 drawers each next to the wall. Moments later, it is shown that there are now only 2 cabinets in the room, and the two 6 drawer ones are at the door. The 2 drawer one has vanished. It also shows the window blinds going from broken to fixed. (00:49:20)

Continuity mistake: Superman punches Brainiac in the face hard just before taking Kandor from his ship. Just before this, Superman ripped the cords and pipes out of Brainac's head, and so his head is covered in a black goo liquid. When he is punched out cold, his head and face are still covered with it. A little bit later when Brainiac awakens, his face is suddenly clean. (00:43:00 - 00:44:40)
21st Jul 2013
Continuity mistake: Inside Kandor, Superman attacks the drones and picks up two of them as they are pulled out back to Brainiac's ship. This takes him with them. The animation showing this has light form all around him and he starts disappearing from the feet up, bright light proceeding the vanish point. The vanish point makes it all the way up to his neck, and moving quickly. But then it cuts to his face and suddenly the vanish point is not even to his neck yet, and he has time to say "I'll come back for you. I promise" before the vanish point takes him fully. (00:41:40)
21st Jul 2013
Continuity mistake: As shown in the Batttle of Kandor flashback, when Brainiac's ship begins forming the shield around the city, the shield begins forming from both above the city at the ship, and at the ground around the city going up at the same time and the two haves meeting in the middle. Then when Superman is trying to break into the ship when he found it on an alien planet, Brainiac's ship begins the same process of the shield. One shot even shows the bottom half forming and moving up under Superman. But just a shot or two later from in front of Superman, you can see the ground of the city at the edge and there is no shield there. (00:24:40)
21st Jul 2013
Revealing mistake: Just after Superman and Supergirl have their talk about him going after Brainiac, it cuts to Lois at the Daily Planet on her laptop. There is a close up and you can see her fingers on the keyboard. She is typing really fast, but the animation shows her fingers just hitting the same 3 or 4 keys over and over again. (00:20:05)
21st Jul 2013
Continuity mistake: During the flashback of Brainiac's attack on Kandor, the tentacles on Brainiac's ship keep changing from moving to being totally still between sequential shots. (00:17:50)

Question: Parker finds his enemy's new place in Palm Beach and infiltrates it to place his guns. In their garage, he quickly screws a crate back together and hides as they return. They get out and go in, but their car is still on. All got out, but the car has the lights on, and even looks like the reverse lights are on. Why did they leave it on or is this a mistake?
Chosen answer: Some vehicles are designed to have lights on while running, and after they are shut off, the lights (including reverse lights) stay on for a short period of time, usually something like 30 seconds to a minute.

Continuity mistake: The Sheriff and Leslie have an exchange in a coffee shop. As she walks past him, he says "How's the ex? You hear from him?" While saying this, his head turns to his right as he watches her go by and he is level. The shot changes to a closer one at a side angle and suddenly he is looking down at his plate. (00:42:55)

Audio problem: After Parker wakes up in the hospital after being shot, he subdues an orderly while an old man using a voice box watches. The old man begs Parker not to hurt him. As he is saying "Please don't hurt me. Please" the camera is from behind him to the side at an angle. His jaw is not moving in the shot even though we hear him talking. He may be using the voice box thing, but as shown in other shots, he still has to move his mouth and jaw to speak. (00:22:55)

Chosen answer: Neither accent is particularly accurate. Anton Yelchin was born in Russia and, while his family moved to America when he was only a baby, he has no difficulty doing an authentic Russian accent, but the accent he selected for the movie was principally based on the accent used by Walter Koenig as the original Chekov, which is effectively a 1960's Hollywood stereotype Russian accent that bears little resemblance to anything overly genuine. Yelchin tweaked it slightly, making it marginally closer to a genuine accent and exaggerating it rather more than Koenig, but, ultimately, neither accent is overly authentic.
