Continuity mistake: DMX uses his Porsche to slide a dumpster into the vehicle following him, staying in contact right up to the impact, so by rights the back of his car ought to be wrecked, but in all the scenes afterwards when we see his Porsche, it doesn't have a scratch on it. (00:31:30)
Factual error: After the cops respond to the domestic disturbance (son hitting mom), we see the male officer get in the back with the boy to show him the crime scene photos and he shuts the door after getting in. Police cars are designed so that the back doors must be opened from outside, however, he exited the car with no help. (00:21:00)
Suggested correction: Police cars just use the child safety lock on the side of door that prevents the back door being opened from inside. It's simple to turn them off so the doors can be opened from the inside.
Continuity mistake: When Elle wakes up in her hotel, she looks out the window. Just a moment before, there was a speed-time shot of the sun rising; however, when she's looking out the window and talking in standard time, the sun's reflection is still moving awful fast.
Continuity mistake: When Natalie tells Bernie about her son, the lock of hair hanging down in front of her right eye disappears and reappears randomly throughout the scene. It's present in only about half of the frontal shots, and no shots from any other angle. (00:37:20)
Continuity mistake: When Ellen is getting up from the table after arguing with Jill, she takes her purse off the table with her right hand. In the next shot, she's shown dragging her purse across the table with her left hand.
Continuity mistake: At the beginning and end of the film, there is a narration who the subtitles label as Sitka, but at the very beginning, we see that the narrator is actually Denahi.
Visible crew/equipment: When the Zombies are chasing Greg in the woods, one of them leaps through the air. You can see the springboard he does it from. (00:45:25)
Audio problem: During the wild boar hunt, they are interrupted by Aleander who says, "Prince Frederick of Saxony. He refuses to surrender Luther to you, Your Holiness," but nothing matches his lip movements. He utters a couple of syllables, at most, out of sync with the two full sentences heard in the movie. (English DVD version). (01:03:15)
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Ray and Eva have sex for the first time, Eva is moving underneath the blanket and you can see that she has a pair of knickers on. The couple were supposed to have just finished having sex, why would she have knickers on?
Factual error: At the beginning of the film, after Eris gives her speech, we zoom in on a map of the Eastern Mediterranean - and the island of Cyprus is conspicuously missing (it's large enough to be seen on the map).
Revealing mistake: Don't worry, Aunt Sally isn't really dead. She's still breathing in the shots where people come to look at her in her coffin.
Revealing mistake: During the major fight sequence in the Corporation, Shannon defends against two people each having the same problem. Their weapons are made of rubber. First a man shoves a gun at her. If you slow down the picture, you can see the gun flopping back and forth. It's the same way with a knife a few minutes later.
Continuity mistake: When the monk is first teaching Kar to fight, the monk has Kar in a hold where Kar's arm is on the monk's shoulder, in the back and forth shots, Kar is holding the monk's shoulder and has his hand stretched out over the monk's shoulder. (00:53:00)
Continuity mistake: Mr. Andrews cuts the cards with his left hand. Later, when you see the replay of this action, where you can also see how he is switching the decks, he cuts the deck with his right hand.
Continuity mistake: When Robert Crumb is looking at Harvey Pekar's drawings for comic-book ideas while the two eat in a restaurant, the level of the drink in Harvey's glass switches between full and two-thirds full several times.
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Edward Burns, Paul Giamatti and Brian Van Holt are at Big Al's house, Big Al is dead in his chair with his eyes open. As Edward Burns walks in front of him, Big Al blinks his eyes.
Factual error: Catus Decianus actually managed to escape from the massacre at Camulodunum and fled to Gaul.
Deliberate mistake: There is one scene in the movie where Heath Ledger reads a Latin sentence in a book. As he is translating the sentence, he goes over the words one by one with his finger. This would never be possible in a Latin sentence, because words in Latin are never in exactly the same order as in English. Words that actually belong together can be placed at opposite ends of a sentence.
Continuity mistake: Julie doesn't come home one night; the next day as she is getting out of the pool we see that she has been "roughed up" and has a black eye. Next to her eye there is a circular bruise/mark. That evening, as Julie and Sarah are at dinner the bruise is now under Julie's eye and is a different shape (longer and more oval in shape). (00:52:50 - 00:58:00)
Other mistake: When Jackie meets the boss of the Interpol department in Ireland, he shows everyone some sketches, the child and then a man with a hat. If you watch the picture, it changes from a man with a hat to another man without a hat back to the man with the hat and once again back to the man without the hat. (00:22:10)
