The Nutcracker (1995)
Continuity mistake: When Marie is putting Nutcracker in the china cabinet, and is startled by the sound of a owl, she looks over at the grandfather clock with an owl on it. The clock face is not fully round, looking slightly squashed in an oval shape. It has a loop on top that makes it look like a round combination lock that does not go to the top of the clock. And the rest of the face of the clock around it is smooth. When it cuts to a close up of the clock, the face of the clock is now perfectly round, and the loop stretches up to the top of the wood almost on the clock. Also a square indention appears around the clock.

The Nutcracker (1995)
Continuity mistake: Earlier in the film before the mouse army attacks, the toy soldiers are shown to have all their eyes looking to their right. This is before the magic spell was put on them to bring them to life, so they were made with their eyes looking right. But at the end of the film when the toy soldiers are in the China cabinet with Nutcracker, all their eyes are facing forward. The toys return to their original state when the spell wears off, even Nutcracker, so their eyes should still be facing right.
