Sleight (2016)

Continuity mistake: The gang Bo is reluctantly part of gets to Maurice's crib where he is playing cards with his homies. The red jacketed one is defiant, and grabs a handful of red and blue chips in front of him tossing them in Angelo's face. But if you check out of the table in the wide shots before this occurs, you'll notice that red chips were never in the stack in front of him to begin with. (00:19:05)

Continuity mistake: Looking at the security monitor as he talks to the young Maria, Kiril has a balloon between his hands that is balanced differently between shots. (01:26:40)

Eastern Promises (2007)

Factual error: Both the Arsenal and Chelsea supporters in the street scenes wear scarves and jerseys without any club logo or player name, the most generic possible, a little darker than Chelsea's real colors and with odd stripes for the Arsenal's scarves, and there's a whole crowd of them. Licensing issues or other reasons, it looks really phony. (00:57:00 - 00:58:10)

Security (2017)

Continuity mistake: Eddie is taken into the staff room to be introduced to the team and on the wall there's a big digital clock, making rather obvious the various takes combined in editing, creating a bunch of errors in continuity. When Vance starts mocking Mason, the clock is on 8:48, going back to 8:47 when Mason stands up from the chair. Ruby enters the room and the clock flips from 8:47 to 8:48 at the very first cut. (00:15:00 - 00:16:00)

Security (2017)

Other mistake: Introducing the workplace to the new employee (Banderas), Vance says that the mall has never been updated because it has everything "Menswear, kidswear, ladieswear, cosmetics." The Italian dub misinterprets the last word (probably figuring it was 'medics'), and so the mall has the rather unlikely lineup; "Menswear, kidswear, ladieswear, doctors." (00:14:20)

The Apartment (1960)

Continuity mistake: It was not a suicide attempt after all, and much relieved, CC grabs the bag of groceries to bring it inside the kitchen. He is carrying the bag to his right with the torso tilted, but in the reverse shot here he is, tilted in the opposite direction, the bag weighing against his left side. (01:37:45)
