Other mistake: When James gives Father Jud the receipt to sign, everyone is still present at the burial - Blanc and Jud are seemingly looking at Jeremy Renner in front of the sealed tomb. In the next scene, Jud is fuming and holding the receipt in his hand still, but everyone is already comfortably hanging out at the rectory as if they have been there for a long time. (01:07:25)
Continuity mistake: Blanc and Jud disassemble the Eve's Apple (or is it?) item. The bolts in front of the Jesus figurine on the desk change position between shots, and so does the light on it (given the direction of the shadow it casts). (01:21:50)
Continuity mistake: Reciting prayers for Louise on the phone, Father Jud puts down on the table his closed fist, but in the next shot, it's just the fingertips. (01:27:15)
Audio problem: At the beginning of the storm, Blanc follows Father Jud, who is going to the church to secure it. When he says, "Excuse me? Excuse me?" the sound does not match Daniel Craig's lips. (01:28:30)
Continuity mistake: When the police watch the footage from the security cameras, Father Jud's mudslide is shorter than the first time we saw it in the movie, and he also turns his legs the opposite way (legs facing the woods in the original, legs towards the crypt in the footage). (01:33:45 - 01:40:00)
Continuity mistake: When Martha praises the Lord in front of the tomb for the apparent resurrection, Mila Kunis is looking at her from the door frame, sideways, but she is fully facing her in the middle of the door in the next shot. (01:36:20)
Other mistake: When Geraldine tells the agent that it's a homicide scene, you can see in the background Martha overhearing and turning towards her. The next close-up, though, is still of Glenn Close enraptured in prayer, facing forward, and she snaps out of it only when she overhears who died. (01:36:50)
Continuity mistake: At the police station, Benoit Blanc goes down a flight of stairs. Behind him, a policeman is walking up the same stairs. He's almost to the top. Blanc freezes as he notices Father Jud showing up looking lost and slowly walking towards the front desk. Cutting back to Blanc after these few seconds, the policeman is exactly where we left him before in his path, hasn't moved a single step while he was not in frame. (01:41:30)
Continuity mistake: Blanc uses his left hand to push open the doctor's front door, but he's actually using the right hand in the following shot, and the left again in the last. (01:42:50)
Continuity mistake: Father Jud is holding the railing of the basement stairs. When he says "Oh God," you can see his arm move as if he moved his hand away from it. But he's still holding the railing the same way in the following shot. (01:43:50)
Continuity mistake: When the tub of acid drains, there’s a close-up on the skull, where you can see that the left hand of the corpse is placed on what would be its neck. In the next close-up, it appears to have moved, and when we finally see the whole body, it is lying with both arms flat alongside the torso. (01:45:30)
Continuity mistake: During Blanc's denouement, Geraldine asks, "Okay. And now, what really happened?" when Blanc is leaning against the altar, and suddenly in the next shot ("Yes. Yes.") he is standing a few feet in front of it. (01:53:30)
Continuity mistake: When the culprit walks towards the altar, Geraldine's hands are crossed on her belly with the right hand over the left, the opposite way in the next shot. (01:57:50)
Character mistake: When Father Jud takes the confession of the murderer, they both do the sign of the cross, but the priest does it wrong - Catholics touch their left shoulder, then the right shoulder; he does the opposite. That's not a mistake a priest would make. (01:58:10)
Continuity mistake: In the flashback of the second murder, the killer lowers the diamond, taking a look at the scythe, but the diamond is raised again in the next shot. (02:07:40)
Other mistake: When the killer puts the victim in the acid tub, they are not wearing the ring, which is actually the only feature that allowed the detective to identify them. (02:09:30)
Continuity mistake: When Cy threatens to drag the church to court, the person next to him holds him back with an arm he has already lowered in the previous shot. (02:14:30)
Factual error: When Blanc goes through the possible methods of death in a locked room mystery in "The Hollow Man," the first two are not actually the ones listed in the novel, since they refer to a complete accident and a trap set up inside the room that causes a fatal accident, respectively. And when Geraldine comes up with the solution, she tells Blanc that it was the "fourth" one while it would be the seventh.
Factual error: It's not stated in the movie, but "L'EVEIL APPEL" does not mean "the evil apple" or "Eve's apple" or anything of the sort, but rather "Call to awakening", which fits the movie and theme (and the presence of a Jesus figure instead of a tree, apple, etc.). However, it's not really proper French (it should have been "appel à l'éveil"), which is quite odd for a Fabergé container worth 20,000 $.
Factual error: Throughout the movie, Cyrus constantly records, keeping his phone vertical, but his videos are perfect landscape mode recordings (except for the one of Father Jud and Monsignor Wick's argument).
