Continuity mistake: Back in LA Charlie talks to Dr. Bruner about Raymond's future. Charlie's nonchalantly hanging hair in front is all combed back from the moment he says 'I never called him back'. (01:48:15)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Charlie and Raymond argue over K-Mart underwear an utterly frustrated Charlie stops the car, gets out, and vents his spleen. There is a close-up of the door opening with a clear vertical shadow, whereas all wide shots suggest that it's late evening. (00:54:05)

Continuity mistake: While Susanna gets out of the tub, dresses, and leaves the hotel room the wet patches on Charlie's undies first disappear and then reappear in a different pattern. (00:35:05)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Raymond finds Charlie and Susanna making love Charlie runs after him. A moment later we find Susanna soaking peacefully in a hot bathtub, without even nearly enough time to get in. Additionally, when they talk while Charlie is sitting on the side of the tub, wet strands of Susanna's hair appear in front of her shoulder. (00:33:10)

Continuity mistake: When Charlie comes back from Dr. Bruner's office and asks Raymond to get out of the car Susanna's hands are in her lap. When the camera angle changes her arms are up on the back and the side of the car respectively. (00:17:55)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Charlie talks to Dr. Bruner in his office his right thumb is under his belt. When he is seen from behind the arm is hanging down, and when it cuts back to a front shot both his thumbs are under his belt. (00:17:00)

Continuity mistake: When Charlie tells Susanna about how he took the Buick for a ride and ended up in prison, the green blanket on the sofa where Susanna is sitting either covers the back smoothly or is pushed together alternatingly. (00:11:10)

NancyFelix

Continuity mistake: When Charlie has the brainwave to use Raymond's special abilities to make some money in Las Vegas they turn around and drive directly to Caesar's Palace, get dressed up, and make a lot of money. All of a sudden Susanna shows up, and we don't have a clue how she found out that they went there, when, on the other hand, we saw Charlie earlier calling his partner a couple of times, telling him his whereabouts, and even calling Susanna, when it didn't necessarily move the plot forward. (01:38:10)

Continuity mistake: Near the end of the movie Raymond gets evaluated by Dr. Marston. When the doctor blames Charlie for kidnapping his brother his hands are on the table. When the camera angle changes to a side shot they are folded in front of his face, holding a pencil, and in the next shot they are down on the table again. Additionally, at the end of the scene a tray with water glasses gets shifted back and forth in alternating shots. (01:55:40)
