Practical Magic

Revealing mistake: During the exorcism, we see the women grabbing hands to form the circle, but it is the same three pairs of hands repeated several times, giving the illusion that all 12 women did it.

Revealing mistake: When Sally and Gilly bury Gilly's boyfriend, you can see the "dead" body breathing heavily while it's raining on him.

Continuity mistake: When they do the spell on Nicole's boyfriend, Nicole cuts his top, then in the next scene, it's a different, buttoned up top, not the one that Nicole cut in the first scene.
