Spy Kids (2001)
Directed by: Robert Rodriguez
Starring: Antonio Banderas, Robert Patrick, Carla Gugino, Cheech Marin, Tony Shalhoub, Alan Cumming, Teri Hatcher, Alexa PenaVega, Alexa Vega, Daryl Sabara
Revealing mistake: After Carmen rescues Juni, as they fly over the city she says, "Hang on butterfingers." In the following close-ups, where is the handcuff with the broken chain on Juni's wrist? He is not wearing it on either wrist in any of these close-ups. It's obviously back in the following shots. (00:41:45)
Continuity mistake: Lifejackets appear magically on the two kids when they emerge from the inside of the weird bubble ship. When they re-enter, they magically disappear. Likely, they simply didn't want the actors to be on a boat without a lifejacket, but there could've been a more graceful way to do it. (00:22:50 - 00:24:05)
Carmen Cortez: Spy work, that's easy. Keeping a family together, that's difficult. And that's the mission worth fighting for.
Carmen Cortez: Never send an adult to do a kid's job.
Carmen Cortez: Ooooh, shiitake mushrooms.
Question: At what point did Carmen stop making fun of Juni and they started to get along?
Answer: When he told her that he knew about her still wearing diapers. He did it to get back at her for being so mean to him and they decided to call it even.
