Goin' South (1978)

Continuity mistake: When Deputy Towfield takes Henry to the bar and the bartender won't give Henry a glass, Towfield sits down and grabs the bottle in his right hand and goes to take the cork out with his left. When it cuts to the close up, the bottle is now in his left hand and his right hand is removing the cork. It switches back and he has the bottle back in his right hand.

True Lies (1994)

Continuity mistake: When Salim Abu Aziz slides through the intersection on the motorcycle, as he's being boxed in and before going into the hotel, the stopped cars change between shots. You see him stop near a white car with round, pop-up headlights, then in the next shot it's a different white car with inset square headlights. Then back to the first white car.

True Lies (1994)

Continuity mistake: Before Salim Abu Aziz kicks the bathroom stall doors, we can see there are 6 stalls (and Harry is in the 6th one). Salim kicks the first door, but the close up shot shows it's at least the 2nd door since we can see a door to the left of the post with the lock on it. After that he kicks the 2nd and 3rd door. After he kicks the 4th door, Harry crashes out of his stall, but he's 3 stalls over instead of 2.

Continuity mistake: When Selma comes out of the kitchen with 2 plates in her hands, there's no towel on her arm. In the next shot it's there. When she puts Calculus's plate down it's gone again and in the next shot she's wiping her hands with the towel.

Greedy (1994)

Continuity mistake: When the nephews and niece confront Molly, when it's raining and she has just pulled in, we see Patti move next to Frank where she stands behind him a bit (she her head is next to his shoulder). When the camera angle changes, Patti is now away from Frank, but back behind him when the angle changes back. This happens a couple times.

Greedy (1994)

Continuity mistake: When Daniel is bowling the 10th frame to stay at 5th, we see him get a 6-7 split (the machine even sets the 2nd shot with the #6 and #7 pin.) But when the ball is rolling down the lane, it is now a 7-10 split and the black dots are missing.

Greedy (1994)

Continuity mistake: In the frame after Robin tells Daniel he needs to finish at least fifth, we see the #1 pin start to knock over the #2 pin for the strike. In the first shot we can see the bottom of #1 and it's bumping the side of #2 as it is passing it. In the next shot, #1 is lying horizontally and in front of #2, which has also been turned so the stamp is facing the camera.
