Corrected entry: When Eric first introduces himself to the Dauntless initiates, there is a guy to the right of Eric leaning against the brick wall. In the next shot, the leaning guy has suddenly moved closer to Eric. (00:23:45)

Casual Person

Correction: He hasn't really moved closer. You can tell from the section of the roof, he's on the 5th section away from Eric and when the camera cuts to being on the roof, you can tell he's still the 5th section away from Eric.

Bishop73

Corrected entry: In the scene where Four and Tris climb the ladder on the ferris wheel, the ladder breaks, and Tris nearly falls, but in the next shot as the camera pans backwards, the ladder looks intact.

Darrin Bennett

Correction: After the rung breaks, the ladder is always missing the rung. When the camera pans backwards, you can see the gap in the ladder around Four's knees (where Tris' foot was before re-climbing).

Bishop73

Corrected entry: When Peter says "Yeah, Stiff, take it off," his lips don't move, he just smiles.

Correction: You don't need to move your lips to speak this phrase. It is quite possible to hold a smile in place while giving this line.

Phixius

Continuity mistake: When Jeanine looks at Tris' tattoo, there is hair covering the top of her ear. A few shots later, the hair covering her ear is suddenly behind her ear with only a strand of hair left over it. Then the hair is suddenly back to covering her ear as Jeanine goes to leave. (00:48:50)

More quotes from Divergent

Question: Why did they remove Christina and Will's romance? This takes away some of the emotion Tris has from shooting him later and the agony of telling Christina the truth in Insurgent.

Rob245

Answer: It's typical for movies to delete or dilute various plot elements from a book source. The movie's running time is a factor, and eliminating characters, side stories, combining plot points, etc. streamlines the plot. The movie chose to keep the focus on Tris and Four.
