Factual error: This is set in the 90s, but in one of the scenes at Stevie's house you can see a Goodman AC unit that is a 2006-2011 model.
Factual error: The French Connection is mentioned at one point. This is 1970, and the movie didn't come out until 1971.
Continuity mistake: When Wallace stands by the fridge making his fridge magnet poem, Chantry walks up to him seemingly to grab a drink from the fridge. However, we never see her opening the fridge and taking a drink, but when she walks away she holds a bottle in her hand. (00:01:25)
Continuity mistake: Young Dan and Jo are fighting over their meal. The position of the tray on the table changes several times, most noticeably when Dan leaps off the table. Moreover, when he returns to it after he jumped off the bed, the tray is empty minus a little red berry, but it still had rice and other food on it earlier. (00:18:30)
Continuity mistake: The Counselor's watchband during the long phone call about choices, fate, and grief with Jefe changes the direction in which it is latched several times throughout the scene. It is quite prominent because it is on the arm he is using to hold the phone. (01:35:00 - 01:40:00)
Continuity mistake: Before Iggy gets his horns, he got a shot of whisky in the bar from the blonde girl. The level of whisky changes between shots.
Other mistake: Blue Jasmine opening credits read "in alphabetical order" but actually they are not in alphabetical order.
Continuity mistake: As Charlotte and her father are hearing Paganini play the violin in their house, they walk to the stairs. As they reach it, her father's head suddenly is turned facing up the stairs.
Continuity mistake: When Romeo gives his hand to Juliet on the balcony before descending, he gives his right hand to Juliet. Immediately his left hand is shown in Juliet's, then his right hand is shown in hers again.
Visible crew/equipment: When Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy are in the hotel room arguing, they sit down at a table in the room. In the glass reflection of the framed picture on the wall, you can see the cameraman.
Factual error: When Oscar's mother visits him in prison on New Year's in 2007, a mention is made of him having taken his daughter to see "WALL-E", which wasn't released until the summer of 2008.
Revealing mistake: When Tanya has just died, her face goes still and she stops breathing, but you can still see her pulse beating in her neck.
Continuity mistake: When The Rock is putting early in the movie he is on the phone, when the shot comes back to the room the putting green is missing. (00:01:50)
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the movie Ryan Phillippe is in a hospital bed with oxygen connected to his nose. When Anna Paquin reaches over to touch his cheek it is gone.
Other mistake: Liesel goes to live with Papa and Mama in 1937, and starts attending school. About half way through the movie, 1942, Mama goes to school to tell her that Max was okay. Liesel is still sitting in the same chair and with the same teacher as in 1937, and the kids around her have not changed a bit.
Factual error: Tilda Swinton requests a flight from Detroit to Tangier, Morocco, but it must be an all-night flight since she and Tom Hiddleston are vampires. They end up accepting a flight connecting through Madrid. Flying west to east, it would be impossible. If they leave their home at sunset, say 6 p.m. Detroit time, and take off around 8 p.m. Detroit time, it is already 1 a.m. In Spain. Toss in the travel time and they will be landing in Madrid in the early morning, which would kill them.
Character mistake: Frank calls a box wrench a ratchet wrench when he's working on the car with Adele's son. (00:28:28)
Suggested correction: It looks like a ratchet wrench and Frank could have called it a socket wrench and still been correct - the terms are used synonymously. While I'm no expert on wrenches, my dad had all types of tools and I knew the different types of wrenches, saws, hammers, screwdrivers, etc. before I was a teenager. "Box-end" wrench refers to the shape of the wrench (box or ring), distinguished from "open-end." So, a ratchet wrench has the box-end shape and Frank correctly identified the ratchet wrench.
Factual error: In this relatively low-budget but extremely well-produced 2013 science fiction film, a 6-man crew travels from Earth to Europa (one of the moons of Jupiter) to search for traces of life in the vast oceans beneath Europa's icy surface. One of the astronauts dies in-transit, leaving 5 crewmembers to complete the mission. When the large "Europa One" interplanetary spacecraft arrives at its destination, all 5 surviving crewmembers descend in a small landing craft to the moon's surface, leaving the Europa One spacecraft in orbit, totally unmanned. This is an inconceivable factual blunder. The narration plainly states that this mission picked up where manned lunar missions of the 1970s left off; so, many of the same protocols are in place. Just so, no manned space mission would ever abandon the primary space vehicle in orbit, placing the mission at risk by sending the entire crew down together in a landing party. At least two astronauts should have remained aboard the orbiting Europa One just in case the landing mission went sideways (as it does in this film).
Factual error: This film takes place in the north eastern USA. During the beautiful scene with the large black bird soaring above, they added a close up of an Andean Condor. The Andean Condor only lives in South America; Peru, Argentina, Chile, etc.
Factual error: The bikes used in film are Enfield Classics, which were introduced in 2010 and not available in 1960 or 1947. The engines are visible in 2 scenes (when young Milka meets his sister for first time in Delhi and when Milka rides to see his old home when in Pakistan) and are AVL engines, not the cast iron engines in 1950s bikes.
