Visible crew/equipment: Right before the scene with Ernest playing poker with the Second Chance Boys ends, the camera zooms out and you can see a member of the crew standing next to a tree on the left. (00:36:20)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when Ernest is driving the bus "blind," the type of bus changes from a Ford to an International.
Continuity mistake: When Ernest first meets the "second chance boys", the boy with the yellow shirt's sunglasses disappear and reappear between shots.
Continuity mistake: When fighting the construction worker, Ernest's hat flies off. In the next shot the hat is suddenly back on his head.
Continuity mistake: When the group is sitting around the camp fire, watch Moose's jacket. In the first shot it's on, then off, then on again.
Continuity mistake: In the opening scene where Ernest is driving around the camp, he runs over both a trashcan and a tent. A few seconds later in another shot, if you look closely in the background, the tent is standing back up. It is the same tent because the trashcan is still knocked over.
Revealing mistake: When the three-wheeled vehicle hits the dozer and explodes, the dozer driver isn't even in the vehicle.
Visible crew/equipment: When the big dozer is chasing the cooks, we see the driver. A perfect reflection of the camera is visible in the glass.
Revealing mistake: When the boys shoot the flaming arrows at the workers tent, it's painfully obvious they land in spots covered in fuel.
Visible crew/equipment: When the kids slam the bus window down on Ernest's fingers, we see a shot inside. The camera is reflected in the window.
Other mistake: In the scene at the lake, Stennis gets down and throws Moose, who can't swim, into the water. Then he gets back up on the guard tower. Then the "Last Chance Boys" push Stennis and the tower into the water. There is a close up shot of the tower's foot. It is about a quarter of an inch from falling off the dock. If it had been in that precarious of a position, then the man's movements and getting down and back up into the seat would have made the tower fall in before it was pushed.
