Continuity mistake: The heels on Barbara's shoes appear and disappear throughout the movie.
Continuity mistake: When Hobbs (D. Washington) enters his brother Art's bedroom, soon to find him dead, he opens the door without closing it. After grieving for a short time he stands at the door, now closed, as he gathers himself as to what he just saw.
Suggested correction: You can hear the door close by itself as soon as he enters the room.
Continuity mistake: In the flashback, where Victor's parents ask him who his favourite Indian is, before he walks out the door, there are two girls on the porch playing with a sparkler while leaning on the rail, facing away from the door. In the next shot, in a close-up where Victor comes through the door, the girls are now leaning against the exterior of the house next to the door, facing each other. No sparkler in sight. (00:25:11)
Continuity mistake: Rosina is meeting for tea the fish trader that she is supposed to marry. Her mother hands her the plate with cake, she takes it in the first shot, but she is taking it again in the following. (00:10:15)
Continuity mistake: When the two cats move past the yawning rat to go up the crane lifter, the door is shut, but they slip into its semi-opened door when they reach the platform in the next shot. (00:06:05)
Continuity mistake: When Lee and Chris go swimming they briskly towel off still a little wet. Yet a few moments later they're completely dry.
Continuity mistake: Vic is drinking at the bar and talking about his guilty conscience - or lack thereof: he holds his glass with his right, left, right depending on the camera angle.
Continuity mistake: In the final lap of the race with Pre vs. Frank Shorter the two runners round the last lap with Shorter leading the race. At first Shorter is leading in lane 1 with Pre following directly behind. Then Pre is suddenly in lane 2. For the final straight away, Shorter is now in lane 2 and Pre in lane 3. (Also a factual error as no runner leading a race would ever run in any lane other than the first which is the shortest distance). (01:36:00)
Continuity mistake: When Nick and Casey go into Ballpean's flat, nick is frisked by the bodyguard, who finds no weapon on him. Casey refuses to be searched. When a fight breaks out, Casey pulls out two pistols, so we understand how he smuggled them in, by refusing to be frisked. However, Nick pulls a machine gun out from under his jacket. There was no way he could have smuggled this in without the bodyguard catching him when he frisked him. It's a big gun too, which would have made it even more obvious if he tried to smuggle it in.
