The Love Punch picture

Other mistake: The last half of the movie is based in France. Mr. and Mrs. Jones are being rescued by a French man that she has been texting. He comes to them on the cliffs in his boat. The flag waving behind them is the flag from the Netherlands not the French flag. They have the same colors but the stripes on the French flag are vertical while the ones on the Dutch flag are horizontal.

Officer Down picture

Continuity mistake: After stabbing the bad guy at the beginning, Callahan for some reason pulls back and somehow dives past a door managing to drag in a grown woman who was all crouched down by the entrance. Wonky physics of it aside, the bad guy shoot at him, but shoots just a hole in the door frame. The hole appears to be CGI, and in fact when Callahan shoots back from the bedroom, the hole is gone. (00:01:35)

Jobs picture

Factual error: There is a shot in the movie showing the outside front view of the Apple Head Office building. At the bottom of the screen it states the year (1981 or 1982). As the year is posted on the screen, a Chevy Cavalier drives into the shot in the foreground parking lot of the property. The Cavalier's style/shape and front headlights reflect that of a 1992-1994 model car - not a car from 1981 or 1982. (01:04:20)
