Continuity mistake: Three-quarters into the film, Jacob brings Rosie, the elephant, to Reece Witherspoon's tent. Her husband, August, appears and seconds later there is, out of the blue, a cigarette between his fingers.
Continuity mistake: When Geneva is getting into Zip's G wagon it is afternoon due to it being very sunny with busy streets. But, when they arrive at Zip's home it is pitch black as if it's late night. (00:59:27 - 01:00:13)
Continuity mistake: The red ink/marker encircling "notstop looking" is a continuous line forming an oval; the two ends meet above the "s" in notstop. The second time Oskar looks at it, the oval is different - two slightly overlapping ovals above the "t" in stop and the ends do not meet. The oval also stays mostly on the same line whereas the first one was wider, going into the words on the lines above and below. Also, the red ink does NOT look like it bled through the page, though that's what Oskar figures out. (00:05:13 - 00:14:00)

Continuity mistake: In the scene in the kitchen when Helen is telling Joe that she is pregnant, Joe is wearing suspenders over his shoulders.

Continuity mistake: In two scenes featuring close-ups of the fireplace days apart, the same logs are burning.
Continuity mistake: Stan is sitting at his desk listening to the answering machine messages and failing to do anything productive. During the whole scene, the handle of his mug switches orientation, pointing at him in every faraway shot, pointing to his left in every closer shot. (00:04:25 - 00:05:30)
Continuity mistake: The designated Pope has just been visited by a physician. Three cardinals want to take a stroll outside for some sweets and arts. One of the cardinals stands and rebukes them; you can see that the cross on his chest has its chain caught in a button of the vest. During the rest of the scene the chain is caught in that button in the closer views and is loose in the wider angles. (00:23:50)
Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, there are spectators and the camera zooms in on a man and woman with a Rottweiler standing next to the woman. There is a glimpse of two people past the dog. The camera briefly shifts to show a woman (Sonny) walking toward the front door, then returns to the spectators. The Rottweiler (presumably the same dog) is now standing near the left side of a different man (and is not next to the woman). (00:02:02)
