Mile 22 picture

Continuity mistake: Jimmy Silva's Hk416 has one surefire M300 scout light on the right hand rail (3 o'clock) throughout the movie, but when he enters the apartment complex he all of a sudden has two flashlights on both left and right rails (9 and 3 o'clock). About 30 seconds later when they begin to engage it goes back to one. (01:08:30 - 01:09:05)

Maze Runner: The Death Cure picture

Continuity mistake: When Newt is straddling Thomas with a knife pointed down at his upper left chest, it's very obvious that the knife goes into his chest, through Thomas' shirt.

A Quiet Place picture

Continuity mistake: This mistake is apparent after watching A Quiet Place 2. At the start of the movie when the family are at the store, a New York Post is visible on the newsstand with the headline "It's Sound." This would suggest that the invasion didn't hit the town immediately and that they had time to have newspaper deliveries and actually put them on sale. However, in the second film, it was evident that civilisation was pretty much destroyed on day one.

Bad Times at the El Royale picture

Continuity mistake: Spoiler alert: At the end of the movie "Rose" stabs "Miles." We see her pull out the knife and it looks like a Rambo-type hunting knife. After she stabs him, we see the knife covered in blood but it is a different type of knife. It looks more like a skinning knife or filet knife.

Mortal Engines picture

Continuity mistake: The Stalker, "Shrike," is a persistent hunter, but not terribly quick on his feet. He's sort of a lurching, Frankenstein-like cyborg who is always pursuing Hester Shaw at about walking speed. When Valentine frees Shrike from Sharkmoor prison, miles out to sea, we see Valentine in his airship destroying the prison and we see Shrike's prison cell sink to the sea floor. This cuts to a long distance shot of the prison exploding and sinking in the far background, miles away, as Valentine's airship comes sweeping from the far background into the foreground and out of frame. Almost immediately, Shrike emerges from the surf in the foreground and slowly trudges ashore, implying that he somehow travelled miles across the sea floor just as swiftly as did the airship, in a matter of moments, despite his slow, lumbering gait. (00:47:40)

Continuity mistake: Constance is hugging Mary. In the close up shot, Constance is wearing a round sky blue earring. In the long shot, the earring is not seen even though her ear is fully facing the camera. (00:27:45)

More Asher continuity mistakes

Continuity mistake: Dan set his lighter on top of the pack of cigarettes with their bottoms flush, but a close-up showed the lighter at an angle with one corner protruding past the bottom of the pack of cigarettes. (00:04:52 - 00:05:28)

The Black String picture

Continuity mistake: Mrs. Marsh carries two plates with food to the table and starts to place the plate in her right hand in front of Mr. Marsh, but when the camera shifts, she is placing Jonathan's plate in front of him (and it appears she is doing so with her right hand, not the left hand she was holding Jonathan's in). (00:35:54)

Hotel Artemis picture

Continuity mistake: The police shoots one of the kids who were robbing the Nurse. The body is lying on the sidewalk when she says "No, no, I can..." to them holding her at gunpoint, but when Batista kicks the cops around, the body shifted further to the middle of the road - where it should have been to begin with. (00:32:50)
