The Bouncer picture

Backtrace picture

Other mistake: During the bank robbers' drive to the meeting spot, the background was blurred, but it is obvious the green color was from the tree leaves. As they got closer and arrived, the numerous trees were bare of leaves - only branches could be seen. The apparent attempt to have all trees appear to be bare (and consistent) was all for naught - It was April 8th in Georgia where the trees would have already blossomed. (00:02:24)

The Black String picture

Continuity mistake: Mrs. Marsh carries two plates with food to the table and starts to place the plate in her right hand in front of Mr. Marsh, but when the camera shifts, she is placing Jonathan's plate in front of him (and it appears she is doing so with her right hand, not the left hand she was holding Jonathan's in). (00:35:54)

Uncle Drew picture

Continuity mistake: In the van after they pick up Preacher and he mentions it's cold. Preacher leans up to the front and looks over Dax, asking about his head being too big. There are several cuts between shots here before Preacher slinks back into the van and his position of his head and shoulders changes between almost every one in various positions. (00:33:50)

Escape Plan 2: Hades picture

Continuity mistake: When Stallone kills the bad guys with skull masks in the corridor of the bar, his motions pointing the pistol don't match the positions of the lemming-like goons he hits. For instance he has the gun all the way to his right for the first one he kills, but the guy is shown with a hole opening in his forehead while he's in the middle of the corridor. (00:29:00)

Between Worlds picture

Continuity mistake: When Nick Cage and the woman get to her place and start to make out, he takes her bra off, leaving her bare chested as he fondles her. It cuts to a different angle as they are kissing and suddenly her bra is back on again, only to be gone in the following shot.

Bloodline picture

Continuity mistake: After a camera shift while talking to Mr. C, Chris' jersey was pulled down more over his pants (lap), but his hands were pre-occupied playing with the string on his hooded sweatshirt. (00:06:35 - 00:06:58)

Woman on the Edge picture

Continuity mistake: Susan meets backstage Dr. Mitch. He states the obvious saying that she looks alike her twin sister, just more confident, and she cuts him off saying that she knows. She was leaning back with her hands as support, and at the cut she replies to him with her hands joined at the front. (00:09:45)

Continuity mistake: Kevin and his daughter handed the invite for the dream-like contest to the protagonist. He shoos her away saying "Liv, don't you need some milk with that cookie?" His arms are crossed behind his back. Next shot and she is walking away from him with his hands crossed in front of his crotch. (00:02:20)

Slaughterhouse Rulez picture

Continuity mistake: After Willoughby wrapped a necktie around Don's wrist and crossed the ends to hold it together, it fell apart when Don lowered his arm. But the necktie was securely wrapped when the camera shifted to showing Don putting his arm around Willoughby's back. (01:36:40)

The Death & Life of John F. Donovan picture

Plot hole: When Rupert brought his "secret pen pal" letters from Hollywood movie star John to school, they were stolen by some classmate bullies (and apparently never recovered). Rupert would have been around age 11 (possibly 12) at the time. It is inconceivable that a child could recall enough details from the letters to write a book about them 10 years later.

Factual error: Michael boards a commuter train at Grand Central, which then stops at subway stations at 68th Street, 86th Street, and 110th Street along Lexington Avenue. This is impossible.

Continuity mistake: Paolo's wife finds the text message of the girl calling him "my eternal love." In close-up she is holding the phone with the index finger at the very top of the phone, but in the previous and following shots the index is far from reaching that spot. (00:09:15)
