Spice World picture

Revealing mistake: Wait until the end of the bonus footage of the Spice Girls' live performance of "Mama". At the very end of the song, the music and voices fade out. Sporty appears to throw her body and soul into one of the lyrics, even though the lyric is barely audible because of the fadeout. It actually looks pretty funny.

Money Talks picture

Revealing mistake: When Franklin leaps out of the helicopter into the water, there is a shot from above that we see he is about to hit the water. To the left of him in the water you can see the water being split by a helicopter close to the water. The waves wouldn't have been created from the helicopter he just jumped out of because, a)The helicopter was too high up to make that sort of marking in the water and b)The waves are being made to the left of the helicopter. If it was the helicopter Franklin jumped from the markings on the water would have be directly below him or below the helicopter.

Revealing mistake: When Haru looks through the phone-book, you can see they took a real phone-book and simply glued a strip of paper that had 10 rows of fake names and numbers over a section of it (leaving space to make "Tanley, Martin" stand out). You can also see the name are briefly out of alphabetical order because of this. (And anything seen that is not covered by the strip of paper is a real person's actual address and phone number).
