Continuity mistake: In the scene where Cindy is about to have her abortion, we see a shot of the nurse holding her hand and the nurse has on purple latex gloves. In the next shot, the nurse is holding her hand without gloves.
Continuity mistake: First when Carson kisses Rachel she's on his left side. When the kiss is over she's suddenly on his right side. (00:52:00)
Continuity mistake: When they jump on the train at the end of the film, the train tail light is on the right hand side and its also a light that didn't come in until the 80's and in the long shot of the train speeding along the tail light is on the left hand side.
Factual error: In the chase scene where Lou is running after the derelict, they pass a number of vehicles parked and driving on the streets. All of them are correct period vehicles for the late 1950s, except for a white semi truck which is from at least the mid 1990s. The grille and headlights on the truck are the giveaway. (01:23:20)
Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the movie, after Boyka gets out of the car with the briefcase, Turbo gets out after him and has a conversation. When Turbo goes back to the car, you see Boyka standing on the side of the road. There is only that one road in all the shots. In the next close up shot of the car door closing, and the car moving, we see the car getting out on to the road from a small by-lane (of sorts)! Where did this road come from? How did the car move places?
Factual error: A delightful movie that theoretically takes place in the vicinity of Portland Oregon, over a period of many months. The problem is, that at no time does it ever rain, and anyone who has lived near Portland knows it rains half of the year.
Factual error: Close to the end of the film Michael Reed is traveling from Philadelphia to New York City by train early in the morning. The sun shines on his face from left side which is impossible in the morning, as the left side of his face faces west during that direction of travel (from south to north).
Continuity mistake: When Stern is cutting Gutterman loose and they're at Rachel's desk, Gutterman is right behind Stern, close enough to touch the desk and sets his hat on it. The shot changes and Gutterman is now further away, not even in arm's reach of the desk.
Continuity mistake: Jason spits blood onto Joker's chin which changes spot wise and shape wise by the next shot.
Continuity mistake: When the two young lads jump off the bridge to escape in handcuffs, as they fall together the handcuffs disappear. (01:12:00 - 01:13:00)
Visible crew/equipment: When Mister and the Boy are keeping watch in the woods, just after Boy asks "What are we going to do when the baby comes?" They heart a noise and stand up, as the camera follows Mister you can see lights in the distance, even though they are supposed to be alone in the mountains. (01:20:00 - 01:21:00)
Character mistake: When Johnny and Cleo leave the Chateau and head for Vegas, they are shown getting on the 101 freeway North (in Hollywood) and are coming from the east and turning right onto the freeway. The Chateau is in West Hollywood so to turn onto the freeway where they did, they would have come from the west.
Factual error: Sergeant-Major Saunders is wearing sergeant's stripes. Corporals Drake and Levin are wearing no rank insignia at all.
Other mistake: In the middle of the movie, there is a scene with the two moms on the couch talking. One mom (red hair lady) wears a necklace with a charm that says "love." There are two camera shots in this scene, one looking directly at her, and another from over her left shoulder. Depending on the shot, the 'love' charm is either visible or tucked under the top of her shirt. This swaps back and forth.
Factual error: After warping back from Iscandar, Kodai looks out of the window. Yuki Mori points him where Earth is. A moment later, he responds to the hailing signal saying that they are now 420,000 kilometres from Earth. Considering that the distance between Earth and the Moon is about 385,000km, Earth is looking unreasonably minuscule from their window. (01:52:50)
Other mistake: The hospice male nurse Juan Is credited as Julio in the credits at the end.
Other mistake: The protagonist is still a kid, and she is telling in voiceover about all the things she vows to renounce hoping to have her dad back in health. On the porch she knocks repeatedly on the wood, but the magical numbers don't appear. (00:05:00)
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.
Continuity mistake: After the shootout at Sarah's birthday party, White Mike is visited at the hospital by Molly. Mike's pillow has marking "Property of Queens Hospital", they cut to Molly, then back to Mike, and the marking is gone. Regardless, they were in Manhattan, they would not have taken him to Queens Hospital anyway.
Continuity mistake: When Charlotte Gainsborough has a meltdown telling the younger kid to remove the toy guitar, the kid is holding the toy differently between shots. (00:17:20)
