Continuity mistake: You can see that Lola's bra is moving on her shoulders from shots to shots during the whole film. Best visible at the scene where she threatens her father with the gun or when she sees Manni getting killed by the car.

Continuity mistake: After Lola and Manni have robbed the supermarket, they run away down a street, but then the police drive in, blocking them, so they turn and run back down the street. As they turn and run, between shots the cars parked on the sides of the road change and some disappear. (00:29:00)

Continuity mistake: In the bank robbery scene, while Lola is escorting her father at gunpoint into the front room of the bank, she shoots out the code pad to open the door. The slide on the pistol locks to the rear as if it ran out of ammunition or jammed, however in the next cut the slide is forward again.

Continuity mistake: When the car coming out of the garage crashes into a white BMW, you can hear it. But neither the black car nor the BMW has any damage, not at the frontlights and not at the side. (00:36:50)

Continuity mistake: At the end of the first scenario, Manni and Lola are surrounded by police cars. They stand and look at them for a while, whilst turning around. The position of both of Lola's bra straps change from shot to shot. This also happens in other scenes in the film.

Continuity mistake: When Lola runs to the casino with closed eyes, she is nearly hit by a truck. First you can see the driver in the background with short hair, but when he shouts at her, he has long hair. (01:04:30)

Continuity mistake: When the white BMW gets hit in the side by the Citroen it stops just past the front of the Citroen, but in a subsequent shot it is still partially in front of the Citroen. (00:37:00)

Continuity mistake: When Lola is running and then she jumps onto the bonnet of Mr Meyer's car and lies there, the rear-view mirror disappears from inside his car in one shot. (00:55:50)

Continuity mistake: When Lola is on the phone to Manni, at one point she screams so high-pitched, that the ornaments/items on top of her TV smash and fall off. Moments later, when we see a row of dominos toppling over on the TV screen, all the items are back on top of the TV, intact. (00:09:25 - 00:10:55)

Continuity mistake: During the Roulette game, after the ball lands in the 20, the wheel spins for a while, then stops. But when Lola is collecting her money, and the camera goes back into the room where everyone is staring at her, it goes up to the clock and below it, we see the wheel still slowly spinning. (01:09:35)

Continuity mistake: As Lola runs through two lines of nuns, one nun has sunglasses on, and there are three nuns walking behind her. Then when the shot cuts, we can see there are now only two nuns behind her. (00:36:15)

Revealing mistake: When Lola screams and the glass clock smashes, you can see the small pellet that makes it shatter, go through the glass and then bounce off the wall. (00:20:40)

Question: Does anyone know why the security guard outside the bank in the third scenario stares at Lola for so long after she has failed calling her Dad back?

Answer: He stares at her thinking that she is a prostitute. After he makes some snide remarks, he relizes that she is Lola and has a heart attack. She later basically saves his life by simply holding his hand in the ambulance.
