Despicable Me

Continuity mistake: When Gru gets shot with all those guns at the end of his attempts to get in Vector's house before he first sees the girls, his goggles are at the top of his head. After he gets shot, the dust is not over his eyes, indicating that his goggles were over his eyes, shielding them from the dust.

Factual error: When the little boy drops his ice cream on the ground and Gru makes him a balloon dog, notice that the dog's ears are not connected to each other. This would be impossible to make unless you used two balloons, but it only showed Gru using one.

Continuity mistake: When Gru enters the bank, the glass wall that the banker is seen behind is a type of glass that you can hardly see anyone behind. The next shot shows a glass wall that you can see the banker behind.

Casual Person

Audio problem: In the scene where Gru grabs Edith while trying to get the girls to sleep, we can see Agnes laughing out loud while jumping on her bed, the sound of her laughter does not synchronize with her mouth.

Continuity mistake: When Gru asks about the carnival game, the straw on the game handler's game is pointing straight out of the cup, but when Gru agrees and pays for the game, when the game handler accepts the money and takes a sip from the cup, the straw is suddenly pointed towards his mouth.

Casual Person

Gru: Do you speak Spanish?
Miss Hattie: Do I look like someone who speaks Spanish?
Gru: It's just that your face is so... Como es burro.
Miss Hattie: Oh! Why, thank you!
