Continuity mistake: When Jule has found her phone she calls for Jan but then Hardenberg arrives home and catches her. He then wrestles her to the floor, so Jan comes and beats him off her.

Visible crew/equipment: After Jule tells Jan that she left her cell phone in Hardenberg's house, Jan goes down to the VW Bus to search for it.

Visible crew/equipment: When Jan, Jule and Peter are discussing what to do with Hardenberg, while he is tied to the excerise equipment and as they talk, during the scene the cameraman can be seen reflected in the glass door to the swimming pool a couple of times.

Visible crew/equipment: When the rich family enter their house at the beginning of the film, as the camera pans around, past the white pillar, you can see the boom and its pole reflected, and moving around, in the marble mirror wall, as the father says 'the alarm is off.' (00:01:30)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Jan breaks into Hardenberg's house, he has to run upstairs to disable the alarm. As he runs past the pool area, there is a couch with pink cushions on it which are flat are messily arranged. Yet once disabled, as Jule and Jan enter the pool area the cushions have rearranged and are neat and positioned. (00:45:25 - 00:46:20)

Continuity mistake: When Jule goes outside onto Hardenberg's patio, she sets off a light which causes her to run inside in panic. Jan tells her to pack up their things.

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Hardenberg is saying that he will have to make some phone calls so that his maid and wife dont worry about him, items on the breakfast table move between shots, and when Peter takes his gun out, Jules hands are down in her lap.

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Jan and Jule are sitting down smoking and talking, by the end of the conversation we see a close shot of Jan taking a drag and his cigarette is right down to the filter.
