Continuity mistake: When the circus and Batman first make their appearance, one of the circus men grabs Selina Kyle and threatens Batman with a Stun Gun. After the man is knocked unconscious, Selina "zaps" the man. I don't know how many of your are familiar with stun guns but when they are activated on someone or something they don't spark or make a sound. The sound is only heard if held up in the air and is not in contact with anything. Yet when she zaps the man, there is a clear shocking sound.

Continuity mistake: When Selina enters her apartment after going back to work, there is no wooden spoon in her sink draining rack, but one appears later when she puts the teddies in the sink. (00:29:00 - 00:29:50)

Continuity mistake: When there's an overhead shot of the crowd in front of the Hall of Records, there is a person in bright red clothing amidst the people near the doors, pushing against a police officer, but in the next shot when Shreck is speaking to the press, the person is nowhere to be found and could not have exited the crowd in that short time.

Selina Kyle: Ok, Intimidate me, bully me if it makes you feel big. I mean it's not like you can just kill me...
Max Shreck: Actually, it's a lot like that.
