Continuity mistake: When the rhino crashes against the car, he dents its side with its horn and makes a hole. He walks back and rams again at the car, though now there's suddenly a second hole on the side.

Revealing mistake: When the prince's jeep crashes, he is replaced by a stiff dummy with a black bald head (or maybe a black helmet).

Revealing mistake: When Sheena gallops towards the prince's car, she is replaced by an obvious stunt double who not only does not resemble her but is a brunette, as opposed to blonde Sheena.

Continuity mistake: When the prince drives the jeep, his hair is short, as opposed to the POV shot where he has a really big afro.

Continuity mistake: When Sheena shoots an arrow and breaks the jeep's windshield, there are bits of glass around the frame, but in the wide angle, there's just on the right side. This swaps back and forth.

Revealing mistake: Sheena's arrow supposedly breaks the windshield and gets stuck on the driver's chest, but when the glass shatters, there's no arrow anywhere, neither breaking the glass nor stuck to his chest. It magically appears several shots later.

Sacha

Revealing mistake: Before the birds attack the helicopter, the close exterior shots reveal that the helicopter is a prop in a set that's not moving a single inch, as opposed to the wide shots of a real flying helicopter.

Revealing mistake: The flamingos that attack the helicopter are blatantly fake, with their necks twisting around and puppet-like eyes.

Continuity mistake: Countess Zanda is Afro-American, but when she jumps out of the helicopter, her stunt double (or prop dummy used) is blonde and has white skin. A shot later, it swaps to a black-skinned dummy.

Sacha

Other mistake: Despite living in the jungle of this fictional African country Sheena seems to have no problem being made up complete with blush, eyeliner, and lipstick.

Factual error: The tigers used here are Indian Bengal tigers and this is set in Africa. Plus zebras can't be ridden as Sheena's able to do.

Suggested correction: The only striped animals in the movie are zebras, not tigers. A tiger did appear on some of the DVD covers, which is an error on the covers. For a fantasy movie, riding a zebra falls under artistic license. In any case, the zebra Sheena was riding was a small horse with makeup to make it appear to be a zebra.

Continuity mistake: Sheena goes barefoot most of the movie but near the end when she's riding a zebra she's wearing a pair of sandals which disappear a few minutes later.

Sheena: See! See! Even in chains, we can defeat them! Turn your minds back, oh my people. Remember yourselves - a thousand, a thousand moons ago! Bring your bows! Chief Harumba - Attack.
