Sammo

Continuity mistake: The combative henchman who had the shootout with Cheung throws the suitcase on the speedboat and then throws himself on it; in the first shot he jumps facing the ship and holding to it with his left arm, in the reverse shot he's facing the other way and using his right arm. (01:18:00)

Sammo

Visible crew/equipment: When the businessman parks the car to bring the blackmail money, several bystanders crowd the sidewalk and stare at the camera crew. (01:13:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: During the dinner shenanigans, the mischievous ghost grabs Tuba's hand and forces him to do bad things with the cake. In the close-up when he picks the cake up though, there are not just Tuba and Rambo's hand, but a third hand too. (01:09:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Joanne's father sits down with Tuba, in the closer shots his tie creases very in the middle, but wasn't that way in the wide angle. (01:04:35)

Sammo

Other mistake: When Tuba argues with Rambo in his room and Cheung can't see him, the calendar on the wall is a June 1986 calendar. While it's not specified how long Joanne and Tuba have been dating and it is hinted by the different clothes in each vignette that they certainly have been going out a while, the events of the movie don't take a whole year (the blackmail that caused Rambo's death is attempted again in a later scene, and Rambo wouldn't just let Tuba alone without visiting him for months). Later in the warehouse fight the calendar shows January 1986.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When somehow Tuba manages to ask Joanne out, he at first tries to come up with excuses and talks to himself. She overhears him and folds her arms; the way the arms cross changed after it cuts away for a second. Even more noticeably, throughout the conversation she holds the clipboard with a sheet that goes across or does not, depending on the camera angle. (00:51:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Tuba and Cheung's partner and bait tells them that they have to arrest anyone who dares to come close to her. During the scene you can see the name tag is heavily tilted under one camera angle, totally straight in the reverse. (00:46:05)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Standing up, Cheung bumps the rather oddly light desk, and his commander gets his nasal stick up the nostril. Brief cut to Cheung, and the coffee cup which was standing straight earlier toppled with a delayed reaction. (00:44:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Tuba beats up the unarmed crazy guy. Meanwhile, the one with the cleaver pins Cheung down and threatens to chop him. In the shots with the camera to Cheung's left, the broken vase is gone from the hood of the car, and is still there in the others. (00:42:45)

The Game Mansion Murder Case File 3 - S1-E25

Plot hole: An additional plot twist of the episode has the Puppeteer from the Hell as the mastermind behind the operation. What does not make sense is the fact that he regularly visited the killer in prison showing his face fully in the open. To make it even more ludicrous, the next episode shows that he needs to constantly wear a mask because he's wanted by the police, and he is on the run. Previous episodes showed already without a doubt that the police had all his data and pictures.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Tuba receives a call for the disturbance at the asylum. Cheung runs to the crime scene first. There are two girls to his left that point at the scene; in the opening shot they run off instantly, in fact facing away from it, but in the front view they are still there pointing - both times Cheung goes past them. (00:41:10)

Sammo

Other mistake: When Rambo gets killed, the lethal shell comes out of the right barrel, but in the earlier close-up on the villain gloating after maiming Rambo's legs, the right barrel was the one that already fired, smoke coming out of it. (00:32:40)

Sammo

Revealing mistake: When the bad guy shoots Rambo in the leg (s), you can see the squibs detonate a split-second before the gun fires. (00:32:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Rambo disposed of the underlings, but a stronger opponent shows up. He sends Rambo reeling back against some drums, and raises his leg. In the next shot, his heel kick hits the drum, but A) the drum is not the same B) the distance is wrong, and judging by the first shot he would have dropped the heel on Rambo with no problems. (00:32:00)
