Flushed Away

Continuity mistake: When the family is leaving the house at the beginning, the girl puts a lot of food in the bowl inside the cage. She even leaves the box over the food. Suddenly there's an open shot and the food and the box are not longer in the cage.

Continuity mistake: At the end of the escape scene, Rita makes her way to the street by jumping down from one object to another. The last thing she lands on is a hammer handle sticking out of a filing cabinet. When Roddy attempts to follow her, he falls on the same objects that she jumped on to. The last thing he lands on, though is the head of the hammer that was absent from the handle when Rita jumped down. (00:25:55 - 00:26:40)

More quotes from Flushed Away

Answer: Most likely Roddy and Rita freed them after defeating Toad and Le Frog.

Question: Since the Toad valued the ruby and wanted it so badly, why did it not matter to him so much when Rita took it back, and not to mention was destroyed?

THE GAMER NEXT DOOR

Answer: Because he wanted the master cable.

Question: In the scene where the bad guys catch Rita and Roddy on her boat, her ruby falls from her pocket. Shouldn't it have broken down or at least have some scratches?

Answer: Not really, when you consider it's a fake so it probably very light, and only falls an inch or two (given the height of the average rat).
