Where's Officer Tuba?

Continuity mistake: When the gang member puts the citrus on top of the money, the box he uses as a lid has an orange band on it, and it's on the left half. When the boss grabs the box, the orange line is on the other half. When he bumps into Tuba, he's carrying a different box without the orange band. (01:19:25)

Continuity mistake: A fight ensues inside the market; Tuba watches the two baddies ganging up on Cheung and kicking him through a stack of baskets and some boxes of fruits. Cheung in the first shot is crashing on a box of apples which becomes a box of oranges in the next one. It does not add up. (01:20:20)

Continuity mistake: Jeong-lee Hwang is fighting Tuba in front of a metal cage. He sends him against several boxes of fruit, and you can see Sammo Hung reeling against a brown box of apples. Out of nowhere, in the next shot a box of oranges appeared on top of it. (01:20:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: During 'part 2' of his fight, Cheung gets grabbed by his opponent by the jacket; he holds him in a different spot between shots. (01:22:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the battle against the opponent armed with a hook, Cheung tries to jump on him when he's on the ground, but the guy sends him back with both feet into a bunch of fruit boxes. Cheung knocks most of them down, but in the POV shot of the villain when he looks for him, a few boxes are back where they were. (01:23:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Tuba 'possessed' by Rambo sprints towards the bad guy for the final clash, the items on the desk in the room with the money change placement between shots (look at the green jar, for instance, or when Tuba gets knocked down again and jumps over the desk, which at that point has on it just a book that turns and shifts in the reverse shot). (01:24:00 - 01:25:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Joanne's dad hits Tuba up with the baseball bat after he tried to fix his zipper; between shots Sammo Hung's hand is in a different position, as you can tell by the writing on the bat that suddenly in the second shot is in view and not covered by the hand anymore, and even further uncovered in the next. (01:29:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the van crashes into the stage at the marathon, the crash happens in two separate takes, as you can see by the position of the guy in a light blue jacket, who dodges the incoming vehicle with radically different timing in the two shots. (00:03:20)
