Continuity mistake: When Adam switches on the monitor to view Hector trapped in the lab, Hector is seen ripping a piece of the door off. Adam then asks Benson about emergency procedure. When the shot cuts back to the monitor, Hector is ripping the same piece off the door again; it's the same footage.

Continuity mistake: At the beginning during the house gathering, the toilet seat is up while Arthur is gathering ice from a bag that is in the bathtub. We cut to a shot of Emily and then back to Arthur, where the toilet seat is down. (00:06:40)
Continuity mistake: Kenny must be fast. He's disguised as the female assistant at one point then minutes later he's disguised in the Groucho Marx costume.
Suggested correction: It's not a full costume. Kenny steals the mask and what looks like a small waistcoat (leaving even the hat). It's not implausible that Kenny made a quick change (probably after killing Ed) to formal wear (which isn't what Ed was wearing). After Ed's murder, Kenny-as-Ed appears briefly only from the waist up (showing only the stolen mask and waistcoat), and then doesn't appear again for quite a few minutes, more than enough time to change to the formal wear.
Continuity mistake: The amount of blood in the shower varies from shot to shot. One moment, it's ankle deep, then the drain is visible, then ankle deep again.
Continuity mistake: In the very last scene, Hoskins opens the back left hand passenger door. He gets in, and is seated right on the edge of the seat (as far left as he can go) when the car takes off, and Brosnan pops up and aims a gun at Hoskins. Hoskins does not move. However, from the camera angle, Brosnan is pointing a gun at the middle of the row of seats, whereas Hoskins is sitting on the far left.
Continuity mistake: When John is pushing his car through the snow (with his wife and daughter) you can see the snow on the road is thick and solid. When John enters the phone box the snow suddenly becomes very slushy and muddy. (00:01:30)
