Other mistake: The dead blonde whose "throat was slit" is shown up-close twice (once in real time and once in a crime photo) and her neck is unharmed, with blood only underneath her head.

Kristal

Deliberate mistake: Look closely at the horse track parking lot. To fit more of the cool period cars in the shot, the director has the next row of cars parked in what should be the driving area between rows.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: Lucy is sitting on the counter, drinking a bottle of water as she talks to Josh. Most of the time the Kirkland label is facing out, but just when she says, "You're f***ed" the UPC code is facing out.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: The tablecloth is spread and smoothed down, the box is set on the table, and then Tepper spreads the tablecloth again. (00:17:45)

Kristal

Continuity mistake: Carla's umbrella is white in two different scenes, but when she turns to say "I love you" to Tepper it's black. (00:06:45 - 01:20:45)

Kristal

Revealing mistake: When the Looking Glass plane is chasing Air Force One, you can see the wires holding up the model planes.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: When Ray and the kids are hiding out in the mom's basement, they take cover in a small utility room that goes pitch black when Ray shuts the door - even though there are windows above the girl's head that emit light before he shuts the door and after he opens it to leave. (00:40:35)

Kristal

Revealing mistake: Ryan Reynolds is wearing red-eye contacts. You can see the whites of his eyes around the red circle of the contacts in several scenes - most noticeably, right after the home movie he's watching down in the basement melts.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: When Raoul is tied to the gate, the ropes across his chest change frequently. Sometimes there are 3 running parallel to each other, from his shoulder to the waist. Other times there is a big knot in the top rope. Still others there appear to be 2 ropes across with a third running straight down his chest between them. (02:02:50)

Kristal

Continuity mistake: Hannibal wears a "Hello my name is" tag that seems to slightly change condition and placement during the rescue of Blade from the familiars. Then when they get back to the Nightstalker lair, there's a close-up in which the tag looks nearly new.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: After Bernie Mac catches the kid stealing video games, he knocks the kid's ball cap off his head. When the kid is leaving, there's a quick shot of him walking in front of Bernie with his hat still on. In the next shot, it's gone again.

Kristal

Factual error: As Ben is clinging to the staircase while it is falling apart, there is a close-up of a nail being pulled out of the wood. This nail is round-headed, rather than square as it would have been over 200 years ago. It's also shiny instead of rusty, which indicates that it's galvanized. Galvanization as an industrial, metal-preservation process was not patented until 1837, and was not used in building materials until well into the late-1800s. Since the film states the staircase was made by "the Founding Fathers, " and there was no galvanization of iron nails in any industrialized nation in 1780s-1830's, this is a huge anachronism.

Kristal

Deliberate mistake: At the very end of Gary's motorcycle ride, the marionette has been replaced with a stunt dummy. He's very up-right, like a Ken doll, and has no stubble on his face.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: As Ian watches our heroes leave Independence Hall the clock in the tower reads 3:27. That gave Ben only five minutes to climb down the tower, dig out the brick, meet up downstairs, unroll the Declaration and decipher it, realize they're being followed, plan their escape and leave. It took me longer to write all of that.

Kristal

Continuity mistake: As Shaun is giving the opening pep talk to his co-workers at the appliance store, his tie flips backward and forward several times. (00:09:00)

Kristal

Continuity mistake: When Angelina crashes the Mustang, her jacket gets caught on something near the console. There is a steering wheel airbag visible in all but the one shot where she reaches over and rips her jacket. (01:12:45)

Kristal

Other mistake: After Ethan crashes the Impala, he shoots at Keifer to make sure he's dead. Keifer's head and torso are on the hood of the car, but the shots break the back window on the driver's side. (01:13:05)

Kristal

Continuity mistake: When Ethan and Angelina struggle with the scissors, he initially grabs her left wrist and pins her right arm to her chest behind it. Then for the majority of the scene, her arms are reversed. When he stabs her, it's back to the original position. (01:42:25)

Kristal

Continuity mistake: There are 2 shots during the car chase that show the gun being held up above the passenger's shoulder level. In the event replay, we see Ethan seat belt Keifer's arm so it's cradling the gun pointed towards the driver's side. In this shot, the gun appears to be resting against his shoulder with just the barrel sticking out. (01:11:30 - 01:31:20)

Kristal

Factual error: A new Impala has a passenger side airbag and Ethan surely wouldn't have taken the time to disable it. (01:12:40)
