Visible crew/equipment: When Lila and Eddie are driving to Mexico on their honeymoon, Lila is singing. In one shot on the outside of the car, a very blatant and obvious reflection of the camera attached to a crane, can be seen on the whole side of the car. (00:23:40)

Continuity mistake: When Eddie has got the pill out of Layla's nose, she pats her nose with a towel, and all the cream that was covering her face disappears instantly. (00:58:00)

Revealing mistake: When Lila wipes the cream off her face after Eddie gets the pill out of her nose, if you look at the towel, you can see a red mark appear on the towel. Most likely from the red make-up for her sunburn. (00:58:10)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: The level of severity of Lila's sunburn constantly changes throughout the film. When Eddie decides that it's over, and goes to talk to her, she isn't very red, yet a few shots later she is very red. (01:12:00)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: While Eddie is trying to break up with Lila over breakfast, the glasses of water constantly change throughout the scene. Lila's glass is the most notable with the lemon changing size and the ice appearing and disappearing between shots. (01:16:40)

Lummie

Revealing mistake: When walking through the river trying to get back to the USA, Eddie falls in a river whilst holding a baby. It is clear that the baby is a doll and the sound is overdubbed. (01:29:00)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: When Eddie arrives at Mirrand's place, the person who opens the door is rubbing their neck in one shot, then his hand is at his side instantly. (01:31:30)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Eddie stops the guy on the bike, a red car comes down the hill and stops in the background behind the purse snatcher. After a brief shot of Eddie, the same red car comes down the hill to the stop sign again.

Continuity mistake: At the wedding of Eddie's ex, the level of drink in Eddie's glass at the start changes constantly. It goes from half empty to practically full.

Ssiscool

Martin: I smell something weird down here. Smells like ya'll been hitting the Devil's lettuce.
