Dragonball Evolution

Continuity mistake: After he's been shot, Goku is lying on the ground with his eyes closed; they are open during the rest of the scene once the shot with Muten saying "He's alive" ends. (01:00:00)

Continuity mistake: When the fake Chi Chi points the gun at Goku, her hair suddenly is all the way in front of her arm/shoulder, in a noticeable difference with the previous take. (00:59:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Goku kneels by the grave of his Grandpa. His hand is on a stone, showing a white stripe between thumb and index. In the close-up, the stone is turned differently. (00:22:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the close-up of her DBE in front of Roshi's house, Bulma is holding the device with both hands. She is browsing it with just the left hand in the wider shot. (00:28:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Goku asks Bulma "Did you kill my grandfather?" he's close enough to the doorframe to leave a shadow on it with his fist, unlike the previous shot. (00:23:46)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Master Muten Roshi sends Goku flying onto a table, breaking some white china. In the shot when Goku actually stands up, the shards are totally gone. (00:29:50)

Continuity mistake: Chi Chi turns around after being hit by the guy she's practicing with; her ponytail flips side in the reverse shot. (00:36:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Mai takes the dragonball from the long-haired woman of the mid-aftercredits (Seki); when she comes out of the manhole, the leather pouch doesn't have its string hanging loose from the left, but it does when Mai comes closer. (00:09:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Goku slides on the ground and gets a faceful of a mushy watermelon. When he stands, his shirt is dirty and with pulp all over, but his cheek and hair are clean and dry. (00:03:40)

Plot hole: Telling the story of Piccolo's defeat 2,000 years before, Roshi says that the seven mystics "sacrificed their lives to cast the Mafuba." Roshi though is on his own and casts it just fine, with no explanation. Not even 7 monks prepare the container, since there are just 5 in the room.

Sammo

Plot hole: Muten sees Goku perform the technique his Grandpa used, and says "Shadow Crane Strike. I'd recognize that anywhere. How's Gohan?" A few scenes later he goes "Shadow Crane strike is the most basic of all the air-bending techniques." Which is it, Gohan's technique or a generic level 1 airbending spell? (00:30:55 - 00:34:50)

Sammo

Factual error: Piccolo evaporates a lake to more comfortably search for a dragonball at the bottom. When he retrieves the ball, he's surrounded by various green-yellowish bushes, which certainly would have not grown at the bottom of a lake. (00:34:30)

Sammo

Master Roshi: In an ancient time, Earth was nearly destroyed. Not by man, but by Gods from the sky.

Trivia: The house used in the film as the one where the master lives, is the house in the news called the "nail house," where the owners refused an order to move because of construction. In the southwestern Chinese municipality of Chongqing, the modest two-story brick structure - a dot on the decimated landscape - is called the "nail house" because it seems to be nailed to the ground by its owners' stubbornness.
