Continuity mistake: When the security guard steals the hitman's bag, he tosses it into his car and takes off.

Dirty Deeds picture

Plot hole: When Ray reprimands Barry for having a public (deadly) fight with Freddy, Ray goes back to his car and drives it forward to hint that Barry should take his fight elsewhere. This all happens in the three seconds it takes for Barry to thank Darcy for his help. Ray's car must have already been started, and Ray would have been the fastest man on earth to make that action in the shortest space of time.

8 Women picture

Continuity mistake: Augustine's hair has a life of its own. It becomes messed up a few shots before she fights with Gaby, then is back to its proper position during the piano shot of her song, then it's back to messy - but in a different way than before - for the standing up part of the song.

Lone Star State of Mind picture

Continuity mistake: When the convict comes back to say sorry for killing Earl's dad after the shootout, watch every shot of Tinker in this scene. In one of them, you can see Tinker's back teeth shiny white and clean, while his front teeth are his usual rotten yellow colour. Obviously, the make up artists never applied the fake yellow teeth to the back molars.

Other mistake: Daric asks Ben to do "by tomorrow" a cheat sheet and get a 50 for it. Ben angrily crumples the sheet. At leas a day passes by, but there' a scene follows and Ben returns that same cheat sheet, neatly folded. He could have course have just copied it back on a pristine sheet, but he certainly didn't deliver it on the day he was asked to, but Daric makes no comment about it. (00:23:10)
