Continuity mistake: When Monica and Steve are in Monica's classroom, the position of her hair changes from being over one shoulder, to being over two shoulders as the shots change from being in front of her and behind her.
Plot hole: Jennifer Ehle gets a note from her husband, who is a prisoner in the men's camp a few miles away, saying, 'We're escaping on Sunday night. See you in Sydney.' So, even though this note is going to be passed via several people, any of whom might betray him, not only does he explicitly say he plans to escape, but even when he's going to do it. No wonder he gets caught.
Continuity mistake: When Ullie Birve's character is taken from Earth near the end of the film, her clothes fall to the ground. In the moments just prior, she is shown fading in and out, but so do her clothes.
Visible crew/equipment: When Detectie Frank Divinc is talking to Joe in the car, about the crime, the camera is reflected in the window; you can even see a crewmember beside it at one point.
Visible crew/equipment: When Ricky Schroth and Harriet Frankovitz attempt to fly their balloon a wide shot shows it heading towards a tree, above the balloons you can see a cable.
Factual error: As Danny arrives in Hollywood at the beginning of the film, the Hollywood sign can be seen. The film is set in 1939 so the sign should still read Hollywoodland, as it did until 1949. (00:03:00)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film, when Martin Short is taking the test, a woman in a pink dress gets up to hand her test in, but later she is still sitting in the room.
Continuity mistake: After "A Lovely Night," while Cinderella and her stepmother are talking, Cinderella's hair keeps moving- sometimes there's more hanging in front of her shoulder, sometimes there's more in back.
Continuity mistake: When Joe realises that Jimmy isn't turning up at the park he goes to a pay phone, puts the red notebook down with the spine faceing to the right and starting phoning the FBI. In the next shot the the notebook has rotated 90 degrees with the spine now facing the wall. (01:06:45)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Asuka is fighting against the JSDF aircraft, her umbilical cable is severed and she ejects the umbilical plug. She then expands her AT field and the plug is connected in her back again. In the next shot, it isn't there.
Character mistake: When they are preparing to film the "Albanian Girl" fleeing the war the girl with the clip board refers to the actress playing the "Albanian Girl" (Kirsten Dunst) by her real name, Kirsten rather than her character name Tracy.
Factual error: Martha Cable is shown describing to a customer the process for converting a cap-and-ball Army Colt revolver to accept cartridges. While it is entirely possible that a gunsmith in Texas might perform such actions, the burning question is, "Why?" The only cartridges available were for a .32 caliber Smith & Wesson, or those for a .44 Henry repeating rifle, and such cartridges were virtually impossible to obtain in the South during the Civil War.
Continuity mistake: In the sequence with Terence Hill and Marvin Hagler giving chase to the bad guys, when the baddies break the guard-rail and supposedly drop one level, the lights of the chasing car are still fully visible through the back window before the good guys take the same dive from the highway ramp.
Factual error: In early scenes, Lieutenant Commander Ramirez is wearing insignia for Lieutenant, not Lieutenant Commander. Later scenes have him wearing the correct insignia.
Factual error: The opening line references a solar eclipse happening in Italy on October 13 1996, but gets it one day wrong. The phenomenon happened on October 12. (00:00:30)
Continuity mistake: Two agents show up at Professor Wahl's door. Marlan Clark introduces himself taking his sunglasses off with one hand, which becomes two in the reverse shot.
Character mistake: When Darcy walks into the police station the chief calls her Joan, the lead actress' real name, by mistake.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the protagonist is first broken out of jail, at the end of the chase scene with the last two police cars. When they hit the ramp and crash, it is two earlyish model Crown Vics. Before they crash, it is one early model Vic, and one (what was a) late model Crown Vic in 1996.
Continuity mistake: The jurors haven't expressed their first vote yet, they're just getting seated. One of them says "Let's get the show on the road." The foreman's right arm is bent as he holds the pen. He asks the juror by the window to come and sit; in this shot though his arm is down and straight. (00:07:25)
Continuity mistake: When Billy Magic [Kevin Bacon] was backing into a parking space and stopped, the driver's side tires on his Cadillac were touching the white divider line. Seconds later when he was getting out of the Cadillac, the car/tires were more centered in the parking space (i.e, the left tires were no longer close to the white divider line). (00:14:50)
