Continuity mistake: At the Las Vegas show, Daniel says to the French banker "If you could sign your name. In English if possible." The next shot shows Henley walking around the stage in the center. But by the next shot she's suddenly standing at the edge of the stage. (00:19:35)
Continuity mistake: Once the teleport device is unveiled, Merritt walks the banker over to the device. During this shot, Henley is on the right side of the device, walks over to it, and begins to reach down for something, but by the next shot, she is right back where she started and not reaching down for anything. (00:20:00)
Continuity mistake: In the very first shot of Dylan, he is shown walking out of a casino with a guy. As his phone rings, he says to the man "Hold up here" and he stands still. In the next shot, 360 degree panning shot around Dylan is shown and the guy has suddenly vanished. (00:23:30)
Continuity mistake: When Dylan and Evans are walking through the FBI office, just as Dylan says "Get Turkelson" and Evans replies "He's in Atlantic City," Dylan has his right arm lowered. In the next shot, his right forearm is raised so that he can point to Cowan. (00:24:30)
Continuity mistake: When Interpol agent Alma Dray first speaks in the FBI office, her collar switches several times between open (revealing moles on her neck) and closed (hiding the moles). (00:24:45)
Continuity mistake: As the FBI and Interpol are questioning Etienne, when Dylan says the trigger word, he is looking straight forward at her. The shot then pans around to Etienne, and in the reflection of the mirror, Dylan can be seen suddenly in the middle of an argument with Interpol and not looking at her. (00:25:55)
Continuity mistake: When the banker is doing his Philharmonic, Dylan tells Alma to tell him to stop and Alma then replies "No, I can't. You just have to let him finish his movement." In the reflection of the mirror behind them, we can see Dylan is looking at Alma. Next shot, Dylan is suddenly looking at the banker. (00:26:20)
Continuity mistake: When Dylan and Alma enter the interrogation room to question Merritt, he starts talking to them, looking straight at them with his head turned to the right, with his hands on the table. In the next shot, he is looking straight forward and his left arm is suddenly raised. (00:27:25)
Continuity mistake: When Merritt talks about a proud tradition in the FBI of men wearing dresses, Dylan is shown sitting down, placing his left hand on the file and his right hand on the desk. The shot then cuts to Merritt saying "No shame" to Agent Fuller, and suddenly Dylan's right hand is placed on the top right hand side of the file. (00:27:45)
Continuity mistake: Whilst interrogating Daniel, Alma asks him "If you had nothing to do with it then how did the playing card get into the vault?" At the end of this shot, Daniel raises his head upwards. In the next shot, he is suddenly looking forward at the table. (00:28:10)
Continuity mistake: In the interrogation room, Dylan grabs Daniel by the hair telling him to answer the question. As Dylan grabs Daniel, Dylan's left arm is mostly lowered, with his forearm raised by a few inches. In the next shot, Dylan's left forearm is suddenly raised further. (00:28:10)

Continuity mistake: Dylan is reading Merritt's file and says to Merritt "Says here you are a mentalist. So what exactly is mentalism?" When Dylan finishes saying "Says here you are a mentalist", the shot cuts to Merritt. Between this shot and a shot of Merritt two shots afterward, the chains on Merritt's handcuffs that are laid across the desk change position without him moving. (00:28:25)
Continuity mistake: When Merritt is explaining to Dylan what mentalism is, he raises his hands and places them on his head, raising both the handcuffs and the handcuff chains with him. From the first angle, the chain has been raised so it is not touching the table, but when he goes to put his hands on his head in the following shot, a piece of the chain, from both handcuffs, is suddenly resting on the table. (00:28:35)
Continuity mistake: The shot before Daniel throws the cuffs onto Dylan's wrists, he lifts his arms beginning to throw the cuffs on his hand. In the next shot, his arms are back on the table ready to throw the cuffs a second time. This is only visible at the very start of shot so you have to be quick to see it. (00:31:25)
Continuity mistake: When the Horsemen are getting into their cars to leave the FBI, Evans is standing next to the hand rail. Dylan then runs up to Evans and he remains in his position, but when Fuller runs up to them, Evans is suddenly standing far away from the hand rail. (00:32:10)
Continuity mistake: After the Horsemen have left the FBI, Fuller says to Dylan "Guess who was sitting there in the back..." During this shot, two men and a woman are visible in the background are about to walk down a flight of stairs. 2 shots later, there is no sign of them. Then they are visible walking on the sidewalk when the camera is on Dylan in the next shot. In this shot, they walk past Dylan. But 2 shots later, they are still yet to walk past Dylan. (00:32:30)
Continuity mistake: When Thaddeus shows his wine changing color trick, Alma goes to drink from the glass. In one shot, the glass is right next to her mouth, but in the following shot, the glass is now on her lap. Extended version. (00:33:20)
Audio problem: When Dylan and Alma are talking with Thaddeus in his dressing room, Thaddeus asks Alma if she is referring to Lionel Shrike and Dylan replies "I'm sorry, who?", but his mouth doesn't move with the line. This mistake is on the extended edition as the scene where they meet is different on the theatrical version. (00:34:00)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Thaddeus explains to Dylan and Alma the Horsemen's first trick, he asks his assistant to get the teleportation helmet for Dylan. As Thaddeus' assistant reaches down for the helmet, Dylan is looking at Thaddeus, not smiling. In the next shot, Dylan is suddenly looking at Thaddeus' assistant with his head turned 90 degrees, now smiling. (00:35:30)
Chosen answer: They would, yes.
