Phoenix

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Chug goes crazy at the supermarket, in one shot the cop is holding him back looking down and in the next the cop is kneeling over the first victim. (00:25:05)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: When Gavin describes Lorna at the lunch table, Steve's milk rotates about sixty degrees between shots. (00:13:15)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: In Steve's first class, in the sweeping shot as the teacher walks across the room, there is a random extra sitting behind Steve and to the right who suddenly becomes Gavin in the following shot on Steve. (00:10:35)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: When Korben is activating the Fire stone, shots on his face show the match level, but shots on the other three show the match angled toward the stone. (01:57:05)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: As Leeloo gets off the ship at Fhloston Paradise, in one shot she is looking slightly to her left and in the next shot from behind she is looking to the right. (01:22:40)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: When Leeloo is fighting the Mangalores in the Diva's quarters, one of them swings at her from behind. She ducks and turns her head, and in the next shot she has turned completely around as the Mangalore throws its second punch. (01:31:25)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: As Korben and Ruby ascend the stairs to the opera house, during the chase shot we can see all of their backs, but both before and after there are people behind them that would make this impossible. (01:26:20)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: When the techs are analyzing the dark planet right before the first attack, the first tech turns to the second to report the sudden drop in surface activity. Between that shot and the following one on the second tech, the first tech's hand jumps from at his side to rising in front of his chin. (00:15:40)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: During the missile barrage on the dark planet, one of the soldiers says, "The planet has increased in diameter by 200%." That means that the diameter would be triple the original size, but it's obvious from the missile impact animations that it hasn't grown anywhere near that much. (00:16:30)

Phoenix

Factual error: In the English DVD subtitles, during the first commercial at the beginning of the movie, the announcer has a line that reads in the subtitles, "They're doing they're part." The second "they're" should be a possessive "their", not a contraction. (00:00:45)

Phoenix

Plot hole: Considering that this family has been training for the mission for years and certainly have received some instruction in astrobiology, they are awfully carefree around the cute little alien. Any real space farer would be aware of the enormous potential problems with first contact, like incompatible biochemistry (aliens might exude deadly toxins from their skin, be eaten alive by human-exhaled oxygen, etc). They even feed it human food without analyzing the alien; again, this could kill it, make it chemically dependent, cause it to go into a mating cycle, etc. But it's cute alien, so naturally they don't worry about any of this.

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: While Chris is flirting with the college guy and she admits she's still in high school, his arm flits from his side in the wide shot to against the wall in the closeup. (01:04:25)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: While Graydon is pulling Sara up from the side of the building, shots from outside show the rope rising evenly, but inside Graydon is pulling it up hand-over-fist in spurts. (01:23:55)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: When Daryl kicks Mike in the restaurant, the table he falls onto is strongly shadowed during the kick, but well lit when Mike actually falls on it. (01:19:15)

Phoenix

Audio problem: When the gang member throws the knife into Brad's foot, not only is the sound of the impact half a second late, but it's a completely wrong sound - more like a book hitting the ground than a knife edge slicing anything. (00:54:45)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: As the four kids flee the car thieves, Chris and Brad change positions between the chase shot and the front shot where they hit the chain link fence. (00:41:00)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: After Chris and the kids storm the jazz stage, in one shot the guitarist has his back to Chris and in the next he is facing her and looking curious. (00:41:55)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: As they are first driving into the city and Daryl asks whether Chris knows Mike Toddwell, Daryl is sitting up straight with his arm raised. Two quick cuts later, he is slumped down with his arms crossed. A few shots later, he's sitting up again. (00:16:30)

Phoenix

Audio problem: As Pruitt is beating up the adulterer in the street, despite the sound effects, it's obvious that his punches are missing. (00:27:35)

Phoenix

Continuity mistake: As the tow truck rolls up to hook up the car, watch the way the four are standing. Daryl is behind Brad by a good foot or so and Chris is just in front of Brad. In the closeup for Chris' line, she and Brad are shoulder to shoulder and Daryl immediately behind them. Cut back to the long shot and they're as before again. (00:22:40)
