NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: At the end of Armande's first visit to the chocolate shop Anouk starts writing her name on the dirty window. Then Armande leaves, and Anouk is seen standing somewhere else. In the next shot Anouk is writing the last letter. (00:06:05)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Mr. Blérot confesses, the partition grid throws a shadow on his face. The shadow of the horizontal bars comes and goes from shot to shot. (00:40:45)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Caroline types a letter for the Count, the position of the paper in the typewriter is different depending on the camera angle. (00:09:30)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Roux comes to Vianne's shop for the first time he stands at the counter. When she offers him some chocolate he is positioned around the corner although he seems to stay put during the scene. (01:04:00)

NancyFelix

Revealing mistake: Jack pierces the snake owner's hand with his pen with the hidden blade. In close up you see that the hand is a prop: it has a different colour, and there is already a mark where the blade is about to go through. (00:51:20)

NancyFelix

Revealing mistake: When Jack and Marty drive the skinny lady to her inbred folks Jack follows one of them into his house. He has a terrarium where a snake is just swallowing a screaming but otherwise lifeless rat. (00:50:15)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When the Sheriff inspects the damaged window the second bullet hole is gone. (00:33:50)

NancyFelix

Revealing mistake: When Jack and Marty are shot at in the hotel room and the second bullet hits the window the glass pieces are flying from a different spot from where the hole appears. (00:33:25)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When the car falls off the cliff you see that the passenger airbag is blown up. In the next shot from the side there is no airbag. (00:53:55)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: After the car crashes through the gate and Jack and Marty jump out it finally goes down a cliff. The dent from the crash is gone when the car is flying though the air. (00:53:55)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Marty talks to Cindy in her bed her bangs differ in close up and wide shots. (01:03:15)

NancyFelix

Revealing mistake: When Jack and Marty go back to LA they drive by two stuffed but nevertheless mooing elks. (01:29:05)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: After Lionel Pond, the mine owner, dies from a heart attack he sits in his wheelchair with his head sunk deeply between the shoulder pads of his jacket. In the next shot he is sitting straight. (01:28:00)

Continuity mistake: When Jack is trapped in the mine under a pile of wood the arrangement of beams changes from shot to shot. (01:25:00)

Continuity mistake: When Cindy's jeep crashes into the mine building it is shown in three shots. In the first two the jeep bursts though the right side of the gate, in the last one through the left. (01:18:30)

NancyFelix

Plot hole: When Marty lies on the conveyer belt on the way to the stone crusher he tries to wiggle off the belt. The little he seems to be able to move is not justified by the way his hands and feet are tied up. (01:08:30)

NancyFelix

Revealing mistake: When Jack's car falls down into the quarry there is not only the notorious exploding motor but also another explosion in the back for which there is no reason. (01:11:15)

NancyFelix

Plot hole: Stephen dies after he was "taken off machines", at least so his wife tells the kids. But when he was shown in the hospital he was attached to no life-supporting machines except an oxygen tube in his nose. (01:33:25)

NancyFelix

Other mistake: The kids dare each other in a decrepit water tower which is mysterious in a number of ways: 1) Draining the water causes a powerful vortex, but the water level is not going down. 2) No one seems to work the bottom valve, but the vortex comes and goes. 3) It is absolutely impossible that anyone could swim through such a vortex, but Stu does. 4) The rotten roof breaks under the weight of little Billy (the ice-cream excess?) but carries his brother who weighs about 4 times as much.
