Audio problem: When Danny is singing at the club, it is obvious that he is lip syncing as his mouth is just slightly ahead or behind the words. When the song finishes there is about 1 to 2 seconds of vocals after Danny has stopped singing altogether.

Revealing mistake: When Uncle Mike and Johnny go upstairs at the party to hustle Phil and company, Phil shoots the eight ball towards the corner pocket, and the sound effect indicates he made the shot. Phil says, "That's how we do it," but right as he says this, the eight ball is seen slowly rolling back into the shot, revealing he actually missed the shot.
Johnny Doyle: How about I tell you where you got your shoes. If I win, you give me a job. If I lose you can have my ring.
Merv: Deal. But you're never going to get that job, Johnny, and here's why. I bought these shoes on a cruise in international waters, so no matter what you say, you're wrong.
Johnny Doyle: But Merv, I didn't say I would tell you where you'd bought 'em, I said I'd tell you where you got 'em, and right now you got 'em on your feet.
Trivia: The co-directors of the film actually met one another while trying to hustle one another at pool. Some of the hustles shown in the movie are taken from their real life experiences.
