Continuity mistake: At the time they were all little kids, the veteran from the war (Brendan Fraser) gave them cigarettes. When the girls were leaving, Teeny took one last puff and stopped it out, in the next shot she throws down the cigarette again and steps on it. (00:45:20)
Visible crew/equipment: In the big game of Red Rover at the beginning of the film, as Bobby runs over to the four girls, in one shot all of the four girls tape markers on the grass are extremely noticeable.

Continuity mistake: When Sam's dad leaves, there is a grey Volkswagen Beetle parked on the street behind him. Yet in the previous shot it was parked on a driveway, not the street. (00:20:10)
Audio problem: When the girls enter the fortune-tellers home, the fortune-teller says "I know," however her mouth says something else. (00:48:35)
Continuity mistake: The girls are round Sam's Grandma's house drinking lemonade. Then when Grandma runs over to take their cups away, a cushion appears on Teeny's lap between shots. (01:11:55)
Continuity mistake: In the softball game, a boy in a red shirt hits the ball, and the ball goes flying way past a boy in a black shirt. However in the following closeup, the boy in the black shirt catches the ball as if it never went past him. (00:51:05)
Continuity mistake: When Sam says "it'll work," in the diner, she puts her spoon in her coke glass and puts her hand down on the table. In the next shot she raises the same hand up, now with the spoon magically in it. (00:19:15)

Continuity mistake: When Chrissy, Teeny and Sam are standing near the barbecue and table of food talking, they turn to walk over to the foldout chairs and swings. As they turn around you can see by the tree are two flowery foldout chairs next to each other. But in the next shot when they walk over there, there's now a small flowery footstool in between the two chairs. (00:08:30)
Continuity mistake: When the girls are at the table, Samantha is doing her hair, and her white hairband is hanging from her arm. At frist it hangs by her armpit, but in the next shot it hangs from her wrist. (00:29:25)
Answer: Reshooting certain scenes would most likely necessitate new stunt people, as the first one(s) would most likely be hard to get back.
