Lethal Weapon (1987)
Continuity mistake: When Hunsaker's shot, his eggnog gets all over his tie and shirt. When the camera angle cuts to Murtaugh's reaction, Hunsaker's shirt and tie are clean and there is no eggnog pouring from the container. Also there is no hole of any kind in the glass door behind him in which the bullet made. (01:04:00)
Suggested correction: You can see the eggnog on his shirt and tie. As Murtaugh is kneeling next to Hunsacker it is very visible.
