The Christmas Chronicles

Continuity mistake: Santa is at the Chicago police station, and the cop enters the room placing a can with his effigy. During the scene, the policeman's hands are close together or far apart depending on the shot. (00:52:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Kate is hanging on to the sleigh as it takes off she is holding on with one hand. Camera changes and now she is holding on with both.

Other mistake: When Kate and Teddy go outside to see Santa, the time on the camera doesn't change after a minute.

Suggested correction: Movie time and real time are not the same unless stated such as the show 24.

I dunno, time can be compressed when cutting between things, but a continuous sequence always operates in real time. We might cut out part of a journey, but if someone's onscreen talking for 3 minutes and a clock doesn't change, that's a mistake.

See I've seen mistakes similar get corrected in the past so I'm not entirely sure. Time jumping backwards or forwards (more than it should ie.. jumping forward 10m during a sentence) is obviously a mistake.
