Continuity mistake: The woman that shoots Joe Chill pushes the gun all the way against his chest. In the next shot, the gun is at least a foot away from his chest. The scene is shown in real time, and no one moves that quickly. (00:24:40)

Factual error: When Rachel is driving to Arkham Asylum, traffic is moving in both directions, but the three lanes of the road are separated by identical white dashed lines indicating a single direction. In the US, 3-lane traffic (2 lanes one way, 1 the other) have the single lane bounded by a solid yellow line, with yellow dashes if you can pass, or a second solid yellow line if not. (01:29:30)

Audio problem: When Bruce is thrown into the cell, the metal door makes a loud, distinct noise as it's opened and closed. When Ducard is about to leave, he knocks on the door to signal the guards.

Continuity mistake: At the clinic, when Chenille is arguing with the woman, there's a man behind Sarah, with his arm around a boy, while another boy is standing in the corner.

Continuity mistake: After Sarah's lesson with Derek in the classroom, in the following shots of them talking, Sarah's necklace sometimes under and sometimes over her sweater. Her movements are not enough to change its position like this.

Continuity mistake: When Johnny breaks the news to Ben about Reed and Sue leaving the group, as Alicia says, "You can't be mad at them for doing what makes them happy", in first shot, her arms are down, but in the next shot, she's holding her hand underneath her chin. (00:39:10)

In the next shot, her left arm is already around his neck, before he pushes her arms down. In the next shot, her left arm is up again as she caresses the back of his neck. In the following shot, her hand has suddenly moved to the side of his head, but in the next shot, her arm is down. (00:29:50)

Audio problem: When the Fantastic Four first meet Victor Von Doom, Doom says, "Now let's be clear about this, shall we? I hate you". In the next shot, his head is seen from behind, but if you look closely, you can see his jaw and face moving as if he were talking, but nothing is heard. (00:45:00)

Continuity mistake: When Derek is talking to Sarah during the audition, he puts his hand on her cheek. The position of his hand changes between shots; in the shots facing Sarah, some of his fingers are under her ear, in the shots from behind her, they're behind her ear.

Kylantha

Continuity mistake: When Chenille grabs the guy groping her, Sarah is standing next to them, but during two shots from behind the guy's shoulder, she's nowhere to be seen. Because of Sarah's position, she should be visible, despite the camera angle. (00:27:10)
