Continuity mistake: The opening shot of the movie shows the 'Bay City' police department front entrance, and there is a 2-door silver Torino parked up front. If you look closely, you will see that it is actually Starsky's red and white Torino, but the film has been modified to 'hide' the car from being obvious. Even though the car was shown speeding around in the opening 'credits', it had not made its 'debut' at this point in the movie, so the producers were probably saving its 'first' appearance for the spectacular first stunt scene. The opening shot of the front of the police station shows up later in the movie, yet this time the red and white Torino is 'magically' in place of the silver one. It is obviously the same piece of film, due to the same cars driving by and the same people populating the scene. (00:04:35)
Continuity mistake: Starsky and Hutch are both called in to the boss' office after robbing a bookie and destroying a Cadillac's roof. When Hutch walks into the office, the top drawer on the right side on the boss is closed. But when the shot changes to the boss when he starts talking to Hutch, the drawer is open. (00:05:20)
Continuity mistake: In the scene towards the beginning of the movie where Starsky is jogging along the beach, he is very obviously covered in sweat and his sweatshirt has huge sweat rings around his arms and neck. He falls in the sand after checking out the girls, but when he gets up there is no sand sticking to his sweaty face or clothing. (00:13:45)
Continuity mistake: When Starsky and Hutch first visit Reese the drink that Hutch is given changes from being in his hands to being on the table next to him several times. (00:20:40)
Continuity mistake: When Starsky & Hutch leave the prison after doing their twin dragon show for the inmate, Hutch's car window is nearly fully open when viewed from inside the car but is nearly shut when viewed from straight on. (00:38:10)
Continuity mistake: After the dance-off, Hutch puts Starsky in bed and places his hand on Starsky's chest. However, in the next shot, Hutch's hand is no longer on Starsky's chest. (00:40:15)
Continuity mistake: After Hutch has played his song, his guitar is hunched into his armpit in wide shots, but lower down in close-ups. (00:44:55)
Continuity mistake: When Hutch tackles Starsky to the ground after his gun goes off in the disco, Starsky's badge falls to the ground beside his head. Hutch grabs it and holds it up, telling people to calm down, but when the shot returns to Starsky the badge is still there next to his head. (00:49:40)
Continuity mistake: It's a great new car Starsky gets at the end, just like his old one...even down to the licence plate, which is 537 0NN, proving the same car's used both times. You see the original's plate when he crouches down while being shot at, and the replacement when it takes that jump right at the start of the credits at the end. Same both times. (00:51:20 - 01:30:05)
Continuity mistake: Just after Starsky and Hutch have been shot at outside Starsky's house, Hutch gives the vehicle details over the radio and tosses the mic through the window. When the dispacher replies with the owner details, the mic is hanging nicely on it's hook/holder. (00:51:45)
Continuity mistake: When they are interrogating the Korean man who shot out the window and tyre of Starsky's car, he starts to talk about "a whitey" and takes a puff of his smoke. In the next shot, only a split-second later, you see him pick up his smoke from the ashtray to take another puff. (00:58:50)
Continuity mistake: At the hospital when Hutch is hugging Starsky, right after Hutch kisses him, you see Hutch holding his hand right below his shoulder. When it cuts Hutch's entire arm is around him. (01:08:45)
Continuity mistake: When Starsky and Hutch chase a guy you see Hutch throwing him into a fence so that his cap drops to the ground beside him. When the shot changes his cap has moved to in front of him. (01:09:45)
Continuity mistake: When Starsky and Hutch are looking at the pictures of Reese you see Hutch flipping a picture behind the envelope. When it cuts you can see the picture isn't there. (01:10:10)
Continuity mistake: When you first see Huggy Bear carrying the golf bags you see him resting his hands on his shoulder. When it cuts he holds his hands slightly above his shoulders. (01:11:30)
Continuity mistake: In the hospital scene, the tissue is sticking out of the box a lot farther than it is 15 seconds later when Starsky pulls it out of the box. (01:11:40)
Continuity mistake: When Reese runs away in the car Starsky and Hutch are shooting at him. A bullet hits the windshield, but the bullet doesn't make a hole in it. When it cuts there is now a hole. (01:21:45)
Continuity mistake: In the pre-credit montage of all the main actors, we see "Carmen Electra as Stacey", but just afterwards in the full credits, her character is listed as "Staci". (01:35:45 - 01:36:35)
Continuity mistake: When they are in the office talking to the captain he's playing the film from prison and Hutch closes the blind on the door. When they leave the office, the outside does not match the interior from the previous scene - too many windows, and the door with the closed blind is gone.
Continuity mistake: The mirrors on the Torinos make it obvious that there was in reality more than one Torino used for filming. Several close-ups show the Torino equipped with the stock Ford sport mirrors. The glass in this style of mirror is adjusted, but the body of the mirror is rigidly attached to the mount and does not move with adjustments to the mirror itself. In the later scenes during the chase to the docks, Starsky is seen to hit the mirror on his door with his hand as he is rushing to get inside and close the door. When he hits the mirror, the entire 'head' of the mirror moves on a swivel, showing to be an aftermarket, generic 'sport' mirror. The producers tried to hide this by painting both the stock mirrors as well as the aftermarket mirrors to match, but the differences are obvious from one scene to the next.
Chosen answer: It's from Adam Sandler's film - The Wedding Singer.
