Continuity mistake: When the group is playing Jenga to distract Gary, and Ryan snaps at Annie to make a decision, pay attention. In the first shot, Annie has her hand on her chin like she's thinking, but instantly between cuts, her hand is down on the table.

Continuity mistake: During the car chase, there are a few moments where the background we see outside of the car windows doesn't quite match the background we see outside when we get wideshots of the cars driving. It usually matches, but there's 2 or 3 moments where it doesn't scatter throughout the scene.

Continuity mistake: When the two actors playing the "kidnappers " (who are part of the actual "game") break in and realise Ron the "FBI agent" was punched, pay attention. Between shots, the actors playing the "kidnappers" go from practically being shoulder-to-shoulder to suddenly being about 4 feet apart between cuts. (It happens when the one actor lifts off his mask).

Continuity mistake: When Ryan is explaining fight clubs, Annie starts to munch on a carrot. Right before the shot cuts, about half the carrot is sticking out of her mouth, and she's holding it with both hands. Instantly between cuts, she's eaten almost the entire carrot and is only holding it with one hand.

(Sometimes the streaks are thinner... sometimes thicker... sometimes close together... sometimes further apart... etc. It depends on the camera angle).

Continuity mistake: After Sarah and Ryan have their awkward moment in the back of the car, it cuts to Max and then Kevin. Sarah is in the background of both shots. In the shot of Max, we see her brushing her hair with her hand and then lowering her hand into her lap. Then, when it cuts to Kevin, suddenly Sarah is brushing her hair with her hand again, and puts it back down a second time. The cuts are instant, so there's no time for her to have lifted her hand back up between edits.

Continuity mistake: The T-shirt max uses to clean the blood of Bastian is COMPLETELY covered in blood... until he unfolds it and sees the picture on it, at which point suddenly about 60% of the blood suddenly vanishes from it. It's still bloody... but nowhere NEAR as blood as it was a few seconds prior. (They obviously switched out the shirts between takes).

Continuity mistake: When Max is trying to clean the blood of Bastian the dog with the T-shirt, the amount of blood on Bastian's fur changes slightly depending on the angle. In the profile angle, there's slightly more blood, and in the over-the-shoulder angle, there's slightly less blood. (Most likely the angles are from different takes where they re-applied the fake blood to the dog and it didn't quite match 100%).

Continuity mistake: When Max first reaches down to Bastian the dog in the office, Bastian has his face pressed to the ground and is licking the blood stain. The scene cuts to a profile angle, and suddenly, Bastian's head is no longer pressed to the ground, and is instead lifted almost all the way up.
