The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

Revealing mistake: The camera occasionally pans sideways through walls as characters travel from room to room. In two instances, a visible edit can be seen between the rooms, revealing that they are not in fact adjacent parts of the set, but rather were spliced together. In the latter of these two, an electrical outlet disappears mid-transition.

Continuity mistake: When the crew is in the submarine and they're just about to see the shark, Steve is holding on to the steering wheel. But when the view is of the steering wheel and little windows, no hands are on the wheel. Cut back to the crew, Steve is once again holding on to the wheel.
