Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film (and at the end, when they show the same scene) the moment before Rocket is about to pick up the chicken, he is only a few inches away from it. The next shot that shows Rocket from behind, the chicken is much further away from him. (00:03:40)

Lummie

Continuity mistake: When the Tender Trio are fleeing from the gas truck robbery you can see a woman wearing a sleeveless yellow dress carrying a gas tank away, then a couple of shots later the same woman is fleeing empty-handed and then we see her suddenly ahead of the trio carrying a gas tank again. (00:07:08)

Continuity mistake: During "The Li'l Zé story" before Li'l Dice (Dadinho) kills Goose (Marreco), a woman's white purse changes position, from the right side of Li'l Dice to his upper left side, between the shots. (00:40:05)

Continuity mistake: When Shaggy (Cabeleira) strikes the first room in the motel, the clothes hanging next to the door change positions in one shot.

Revealing mistake: At the end when Li'l Zé (Zé Pequeno) and his crew want Rocket (Buscapé) to take a picture of them in the street, a long-haired boy with a blue shirt is the first to be killed in the final shooting. A couple of seconds before he is shot in the chest, the shape of the blood pack is visible under his shirt.

Boy 1: The big deal is dope, you got it?
Boy 2: If you wanna be a dealer, you gotta start as a delivery boy, see?
Boy 1: This delivery boy business is real bullshit. The time it takes being a delivery boy, then security and then manager, is way too long.
Boy 2: What you gonna do? You've gotta wait for them to die.
Boy 1: No way! I'll do it just like Pequeno did: you gotta whack everyone and that's it.
