XXX (2002)

Continuity mistake: After infiltrating the Rammstein concert using his sonic screwdriver, the secret agent is moshing his way through the rabid crowd. In the initial phase of the chase, shortly after Yorgi says "Zaraza" you can see that the band members are not wearing their mouth flamethrowers yet, or they already are, with no continuity. (00:02:10)

XXX (2002)

MILF (2018)

Continuity mistake: The three besties are in the car at the beginning of the movie, chatting. During the chat, the scenery keeps changing between shots without much consistency. (00:00:50)

La Rafle (2010)

Continuity mistake: The little Nono is singing the nursery rhyme in front of the cafè. One of the nazis tosses him a coin, while the other puts the cigarette down, but at the cut he's already taking a puff.

West of the Pecos (1945)

Voodoo Passion (1977)

Voodoo Passion mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Inès the Housekeeper is on the boardwalk looking at the ship and the various passengers that disembark. She waves at Mrs. Susan House when she sees her, and walks up to her, meeting there amongst the passengers who just got off the ship...the same dudes (a man with a striped T-shirt, a guy with an open shirt with white pants, one denim-clad guy with a bag) who were lazing around not too far from her when she was on the promenade. (00:04:30)

Mulan: Rise of a Warrior mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Mulan tricks her father into taking his medicine, and everyone has a laugh at him. Between shots she is pouring from the teapot first with the right, then the left, and one of the geezers sitting by is cackling with a different posture and hands switched as well. (00:05:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the gang bids a silent farewell to Xander, look at Nicks in his close-up; in the background, Tennyson Torch is turning around towards his right, but in his own close-up, Tennyson turns towards his left, and Becky is close to him while she was nowhere in sight before. (01:33:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Xander receives the phone call from Serena that informs him of the failed jamming. When he says "Oh and tell Nicks..." he is holding the telephone in a different grip. (01:30:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Jean Marke picks up the Pandora's Box, she is wearing the pearl grey nail varnish she had during the air trip from the Philippines. When she reaches the plane after a short car trip, she is sporting a teal manicure. (01:15:00 - 01:16:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After apprehending Xiang and dragging him on the plane, Marke gets a phone call from 'the President'. Behind her, Xander Cage approaches; the military guys in the background move between shots. (01:16:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Once the rogue director dies, Xander and Xiang look down at his corpse. His handgun rests on the dusty floor with a couple of wood splinters and a pebble nearby, and the Box is by his torso, with a noticeable shadow cast on it. Jane Marke then kicks the gun away from a spot with none of the previous debris around, and picks up the box with no shadow in sight. (01:14:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Cage is In the building in Detroit with the crazy CIA director. When he shouts at him "So what are you gonna do about it, huh?" Vin Diesel's hand, his right thumb in particular, is in a different position from the previous shot - and finger position is particularly emphasizes during the rest of the scene. (01:13:35)

xXx: Return of Xander Cage mistake picture

Continuity mistake: After Tennyson's 200th crash selfie, we see Xiang chased by Xander. When Xiang tumbles in the alley, on top of a dumpster there's a carton half filled with green and white bottles. When he kicks it in Xander's face, the carton is filled with just green bottles. (01:10:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In Detroit, Serena tells Xander the story of how she was enrolled in the XXX program. She just mentioned Gibbons' quote about the lion. The wind rustles strong through Deepika Padukone's large mane in a reaction shot on a probably very envious Vin Diesel, but in the next shot her hair is suddenly still again. (01:03:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Jane Marke tells Xander Cage that he's been "pissing up the wrong tree." Look at Ruby Rose in the background. She scowls and looks at her. During the next sentence there's a cut, and she instantly turned towards the annoying soldier guy Cage flushed out earlier in Eastern Europe (and that somehow has been in that briefing room maybe for hours without a single quip by Cage). (01:00:35)

xXx: Return of Xander Cage mistake picture

Continuity mistake: In the sequence when Adele Wolff disentangles herself from the makeshift harness she suspended herself in, the stunt double who spins around has much less fabric taped around her thighs compared to Ruby Rose's getup, and when it's Ruby Rose again shooting baddies close to the ground her richer double thigh draping is back. (00:54:50)
