Other mistake: When the film starts, Dolittle drinks from a yellow cup, the angle changes to behind his shoulder and it's perfectly obvious the cup is empty. Then, despite this, he keeps sipping and moving his mouth all the time.

Continuity mistake: When Dolittle arrives at the woods, right before he parks, the side of his car is totally dusty and dirty. When he steps off, after a change of angles, it is spotless.
