Continuity mistake: At the Shanghai Casino, Bond puts the very expensive chip on the bench between him and the cashier, who doesn't touch it, but leaves it behind as she gets her boss and the suitcase that holds a lot of money. As Bond walks away, it is gone.
Continuity mistake: When Bond is on the train, before he gets into the backhoe, the number of people and cars on the street keep changing. Even if the train moved forward, the people/cars seen in the next shot weren't seen in the previous shots.
