Total Recall (1990)

Continuity mistake: When Arnie enters the hotel room on Earth, he receives a phone call from a man with a suitcase who tells him to look through the window. While Arnie is approaching to the window, we can see in the display that the mysterious man is looking to his upper right. In the next shot, when Arnie is looking through the window, we can see that the hotel room is located at the man's left side. (00:35:10)

Continuity mistake: When Doug and Melina are being chased by Richter they leap from the catwalk in the big dome. When they reach the other side, from one camera angle, they grab the horizontal bar on the dome scaffolding. From the next angle they are holding onto the diagonally vertical bars swinging inward. (01:06:30)

Continuity mistake: Arnie has come back to the apartment after shooting his coworkers and asks Lori if this is a hallucination. He then reveals fresh blood smeared all over the palms of his hands but he had grabbed her before he asks the question. Lori is sitting in front of him without a drop of blood on her.

Continuity mistake: When the man delivering the briefcase calls Quaid and tells him to go to the window, you see on the screen he turns to look to his side, but when Quaid goes to the window the man on the phone is still looking straight and then is seen turning to his side again.

Continuity mistake: After Edgemar lets Lori in and closes the door, a moment later the door is open in the mirror's reflection.

Continuity mistake: As Quaid copies the name Melina on the paper, the writing is in heavy black ink. When he leaves the counter the writing is very light, nearly non existent.

Continuity mistake: When Quaid first arrives at The Last Resort, he hands Benny a tip and walks in through the front doors. In a front shot behind him is the head of a man outside who wasn't there a moment before when Quaid walked in.

Continuity mistake: When Quaid uses the hologram, it's a mirror image of himself. However, before he enters the reactor room full of guards, we see him put the hologram device on his left wrist. His hologram (the one all the guards shoot at) has the device on his left wrist as well, instead of what would be the right.

Continuity mistake: In the apartment, Lori grabs a knife, and after the first slice, switches the knife to her right hand. After the second slice, the knife can be seen midair as she tosses it from left to right again.

Continuity mistake: During the chaos that ensues after Richter shoots out the spaceport windows, one of the rebels clings to a yellow pipe before being sucked into Mars' atmosphere. His hands are varying distances from each other, depending on the shot. (00:46:50)
