Continuity mistake: When Alex sees the cop hiding in the shower on the camera/web server towards the end, the hit counter is at the same level as it was earlier in the film (despite increasing steadily every second when we last saw it). Plus the mouse cursor is slowly moving up from "Camera 3" to "Camera 1", despite Alex not moving the mouse. (01:12:55)

Alias (2001)
Continuity mistake: When the new head of SD-6 invites the security agent to play back what Sloane wrote, the screen is already displaying the letter. We only see the entirety of this letter later, once the "playback" has been completed. It can't be that the boss has done it once already, as he's surprised to see the final text.
