Continuity mistake: When Olivia Munn is doing the weird nerve pinch thing to Kevin Hart for sitting at her desk, there's no consistency in the extras standing around the precinct. (00:25:05)
Revealing mistake: When James jumps off the SUV about to crash through the parapet, Ice Cube rolling on the floor looks 20 pounds lighter - that, or it's just the stunt double. (00:09:30)
Continuity mistake: When at the wedding Ben calls Maya "handsome" and James drinks from his glass, said glass is in his left hand at first, then changes to right mid-gesture. (01:34:15)
Continuity mistake: When a drunk AJ tells Ben "Happy Kwanzaa, sorry for your loss", a woman in a black and white dress, with a tattoo on her arm, passes by them twice. (01:33:50)
Continuity mistake: When Ben walks over to Alonso to apologize for shooting him, he's pointing at him in a shot, but he is not in the previous and following. (00:59:10)
Continuity mistake: In the scene with James calmly chatting with the waitress about the lamburger, he is using the left hand or not from shot to shot. (01:06:00)
Continuity mistake: James holds Ben by the vest for the big climax - but also by his jumper, when the shooting is over. (01:30:35)
Continuity mistake: The brothers in law are shaking hands with Captain Hernandez in front of the district. There's a woman with long brown hair and carrying a purse. She keeps passing them by walking up the stairs, twice with a friend with a purple top, once on her own, and comes down the stairs not too long after. She's not the only extra recycled / passing a few times in succession, for instance a bald black man in a dress shirt. (01:31:20)
Continuity mistake: For some reason, Olivia Munn decides to go create a distraction dancing with Pope. When she goes down the stairs, two women are ascending, but at the cut an entirely different one is coming up (who was also seen going down just at the beginning of the sequence anyway). (01:02:30)
Continuity mistake: Pope stops the trio as they are trying to slip away from his residence during the party. Filmed from behind, he is talking to them being to Ben's right, but filmed from the front, he's positioned between Ben and Maya, to the point that when he walks forward they have to make way splitting left and right. (01:09:50)
Continuity mistake: Ben and James have stopped the "ghost" truck. Ben is gloating that it's their "first bust as the Brothers-in-law." Notice the cone of light under the vehicle, at the lower part of the car door. Next shot it's suddenly gone. The side of the pick-up keeps switching between lit or not, and in the last shot from normal height the doors are even fully open. In the aerial shot that comes after, just one door is open and the other closed. (01:16:40)
Continuity mistake: Lt. Brooks calls to announce that Ben's career is over. Ben walks away; in the aerial shot that follows, the cargo doors are open at different angle and the two policemen who were filling in reports by the guard-rail are missing. (01:19:25)
Continuity mistake: After James and Ben have been notified their punishment, the gang is in a bar, figuring out what went wrong. When AJ says "Maybe the container was made of coke", Ben's crossed arms switch position (look at the wristwatch). (01:19:40)
Continuity mistake: When AJ tells the gang that there's a shipment every morning, Ben goes "Let's do it." Olivia Munn in the foreground has her chin leaning against the back of her hands; next shot and no hands in sight. Likewise, she changes arm position when James tells Ben that he needs to talk and they move away. (01:21:25)
Revealing mistake: AJ is looking through Pope's files. They various mails scroll by really fast but even without slo-mo it's fairly easy to pick up the fact that they are repeats, with the phrase "No mistakes this time" popping in more than once. Unless everyone is prone to mistakes in Pope's organization, it does not make sense. (01:12:45)
Continuity mistake: James and Maya open the cargo container and find pile of of drugs and weapons stashed there. Ice Cube holds the automatic weapon in different ways depending on the angle (just look at the strap), and when Pope gives them a shout you can see also Olivia Munn reach for the gun (which is on the cargo bed) using her hands in a radically different way. (01:24:40)
Revealing mistake: During the foot chase, the small part that follows the one when they run through the BBQ party and James looks at them from his car, just before the trampoline bit, features the image in reverse. Look at the writing on AJ's pack, or how now Kevin Hart is wearing his watch on the right wrist, with the gun holstered on the left. (00:29:25)
Continuity mistake: AJ distracts the baddie that was shooting Ben with his assault rifle, and Ben manages to gun him down. The man dies falling in two different parts of the street - just look at the cracked section of the asphalt. (01:26:50)
Continuity mistake: When James quite anticlimactically shoots down Pope's lead henchman to save Maya, he is completely in the open in the last shot of the sequence, but he was leaning for cover against the container all the time before, and was never shown moving, quite the opposite. (01:27:15)
Continuity mistake: In the footage inside the bathroom at Pope's, Kevin Hart is wearing a different sash from the rest of the party scene (or more likely, the same one but inside out by mistake). It's particularly obvious when he looks out of the window and the two patterns alternate depending on the camera. (01:04:50)
