Kangaroo Jack

Continuity mistake: In the scene where the kangaroo has just been knocked down by the Jeep, Charlie gets out of the driver's door and it swings shut. In the next shot the driver's door is open again. (00:19:45)

Continuity mistake: During the scene in which Charlie and Louis manage to crash their plane, they hit a chimney and the plane's left wing goes flying on its own. Moments later, however, it has attached itself to the plane again, before in the next shot disappearing again. (00:38:35)

Continuity mistake: When Charlie and Louis are on the plane to Australia, and Louis gives the candy to Charlie, Charlie's hair is untidy in the back, but when he's eating the candy, his hair is flat.

Continuity mistake: When Louis and Charlie are on the plane, Louis finds the money and knocks on the bathroom door 2 times. The first time, you see his hand move and hit the door. The second time you can see that neither of his hands move.

Suggested correction: You state that his hand doesn't move for the second knock but He is knocking at waist or below waist level at the bottom for the second knock. You can't see it but that is what is happening. There is no mistake.

Continuity mistake: When Charlie is about to jump in the lake with Jesse, Charlie still has the anti-scent make-up on. In the next shot, it's no longer there, and in the shot after that, it's there again. Finally, when Charlie jumps in, without any scrubbing, the make-up's gone for good.

Continuity mistake: Waffles the dog is mentioned as a boy in the van, but is mentioned as a girl at the warehouse.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jessie shows up in the desert to rescue Charlie and Lewis, she is riding on one camel, when they leave in the morning there are three. Where did the other two camels come from?

Suggested correction: They end up in another camp/location where she has everything set up. So the other camels would have stayed whilst she took one and just happened to come across Louis and Charlie.

Continuity mistake: This mistake happens in the plane scene. At the start, the plane says "Dingo IV". But when they crash, the I and the V look different.

Continuity mistake: Throughout the movie, Waffles, Louis' dog, changes from a long-haired dog to a short-haired dog.

Continuity mistake: In the chase scene, when Charlie and Louis go through the termite mounds, you can see that they are fake. Watch really closely and you'll see them hit one that doesn't break it just bobs back and forth.

Continuity mistake: When Louis washes his face at the camel fountain, he splashes water on his face. In the next shot his face is bone dry.

Revealing mistake: Any time that Charlie is kicked by the kangaroo, they show him falling back onto the ground. But, if you look closely, they just used the same shot over and over. The exact same two lines in the dirt are to his left by his head each time.

Trivia: Originally, the story was very different. The kangaroo appeared only in one scene, but the crew liked it so much, they changed the whole movie.

Question: Who is the actress playing the flight attendant that listens to the guys in the bathroom with disgust?

Answer: Lara Cox is not the flight attendant. "Cute Girl on Plane" was the 2nd girl to enter the scene and overhear the boys in the bathroom. I was unable to find who played the flight attendant and she may have just been a featured extra. I suspect Lara Cox is a member of S.A.G. and that's how she got a credited role and the other lady is not a member and was just hired as a background actor, which is why she's not credited (most extras are not credited).

Ah, good looking there. ^^ I was going by the best that I could find.

Answer: If I'm able to figure out who the correct person is by the IMDb listings, I think she's credited as Cute Girl On Plane, with the actress playing her being Lara Cox. That's the closest thing I could find in the IMDb listings to a flight attendant, as I don't think customs officer counts.
