Continuity mistake: In the opening of the movie, when Rusty and Danny are flying back to visit Rueben, you see them boarding a Gulfstream G200. However, the interior shots actually show them flying in a Gulfstream 5 (probably the one on the ramp next to the G200 when they exit the aircraft).
Continuity mistake: While the group talks about the plan to flirt with Sponder, Linus snaps his fingers and the position of his arm swaps from being up to being at waist level from one frame to the other when the angle changes.

Continuity mistake: While Reuben is in bed, the tissue paper on the night table changes positions between shots.
Continuity mistake: When Rusty is in Bank's office posing as a seismologist, Bank's glasses appear, disappear, then reappear between shots.
