The Naked Gun (1988)

Continuity mistake: When Frank is chasing the doctor who tries to kill Nordberg, the doctor crashes into the missile and you can see Frank's vehicle behind him as it should be. Right before the fireworks scene, Frank's vehicle disappears. It should still be following the doctor.

The Naked Gun (1988)

Trivia: The woman who shouts "hey look out" as Frank's car comes barrelling out of control toward him, is also in the second and third films. In the second film, she is a guest at the party. In the third film, she is at the beginning with a baby on the steps. Why is she in all three films? Probably because she's Naked Gun creator David Zucker's sister Susan Breslau.

Speed (1994)

Revealing mistake: When Howard shoots the subway driver near the end, we see the driver collapse and die. Where did the damage from the bullets go? There's not much in the way of bullet holes or broken glass. Certainly an automatic weapon would've produced some damage.

Continuity mistake: When Marty stops the Delorean in front of the Lyon Estates sign after escaping the farm, notice the sun - it's overcast and kind of foggy. When he looks at the sign from another angle, it has become more sunny, and later in the day. When the couple with the car passes, it has returned to the same as before.

Star Wars (1977)

Visible crew/equipment: When Leia and the others come back to the rebel base, she says "there's no time for sorrows." The camera is moving during this shot and its shadow is cast on the actors.

Grumpy Old Men (1993)

Continuity mistake: The amount of people outside the church during the wedding changes. When we see the view from the inside of the limo, it's a handful. When we see the scene with the fish thrown out of the window, there are many more.

Richard Jewell (2019)

Audio problem: When Kenny Rogers is singing on stage, several times we see the video screen. The timing is off with the audio. Rogers doesn't have the mic to his mouth at one point but is still singing.

Continuity mistake: George walks downtown to find Mary. He stops in the street as a man is walking the opposite direction. The man doesn't pass George at any point. The scene cuts to a closer angle and he has disappeared.

Joy Ride (2001)

Plot hole: The incident at the hotel happens in the town of Table Rock, Wyoming. Aside from Table Rock not having any hotel, the drive from Table Rock to Boulder, Colorado is only 4 1/2 hours. Unless they're crawling, why is this trip taking two days? The film uses real life locations and town names. The rest of the film is justifiable as Rusty controls the game, but the first act of the film's timeline is messy.

Cats (2019)

Cats mistake picture

Revealing mistake: The film was rushed to theaters, leaving a few mistakes which Universal fixed. In the original cut, toward the end, Judi Dench's human hand is visible, complete with her wedding ring. This was fixed for the re-release.

Jack Frost (1998)

Other mistake: When Charlie is helping Jack watch TV through the window, his mother comes in and talks to him. By this point Charlie has stopped changing channels, but we can see the channel change effect once more.
