Maigret (2022)

Continuity mistake: At the clothing rental store, Maigret puts the box with the victim's bloodied dress on the counter. He leans against the counter with closed fists, but in the next shot, we see Gérard Depardieu leaning with his open hands flat instead. (00:17:00)

Maggie Moore(s) (2023)

Continuity mistake: When the police show up at Michael Kosco's place, Deputy K. Reddy wanders off to check the window. There's a brief cut to a wider angle, then Jon Hamm is hunched over again like in the first shot, even though he has already changed position. (01:21:40)

Farewell, Friend (1968)

Continuity mistake: During the opening credits, Charles Bronson is walking along the pier, carrying his bag over his left shoulder. He stops in a separate shot, grinning at the camera and tossing the highball glass he was carrying into the sea (as soldiers normally do). In this same shot, he switches the bag to his right hand. Back to the previous angle, and Bronson is again walking with his bag over his left shoulder, like nothing happened. (00:01:15)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: When Rita bails out of babysitting, she says, "Oh no, I have to work," pointing inward, but her finger is outward when she continues the phrase in the next shot. (01:56:20)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: When Dorn does a Superman punch on a bad guy during his sortie on the left flank with Rafe, the guy he attacks had a machine gun in the previous shot, but he takes the punch already hands-free. (01:44:10)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: Somehow, Marcus got a plane seat right behind Mike. He puts his hand by Mike's headrest, and in the same shot, he removes the hand from that position. But the hand is still there in the next one. (01:30:50)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: When Mike tumbles on the flatbed truck after bouncing Marcus's sidecar out of the way, he rolls head to the left, feet to the right. It's the other way around at the cut. (01:20:40)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: Marcus, in his half of the sidecar, is on a collision course with a truck (after they show the truck driver steering to avoid Zway-Lo). In the more dynamic, wider angle, he is screaming, body stiff and hands off the machine gun. A close-up of Martin Lawrence shows him still clinging to the weapon. (01:20:30)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: In the scene at Picante's 'office', the camera cuts away for a split second when the unlikely accountant taunts Mike, calling him "butterscotch." His gold chain was under his tank top; now it's above. (01:03:45)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: When Mike kicks Picante Jenkins's door open, the door closes shut behind Marcus and him, but is slightly open in inconsistent ways during the rest of the scene. (01:02:00)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: In the scene of the sniping on Mike and Harris, in close-ups, Armando's face is fully lit, but when Zway-Lo is in frame, the shadow from the side is wider and there's a thin shadow (from the post) intersecting his right eyebrow. (00:57:25)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: Watch Mike when he joins Captain Harris at the bleachers. The kid to his right (left of the frame) holds a phone in the closer view; he had none in the long shot. (00:54:20)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: The biker assailant and Mike crash onto a table outside the Broadmore Hotel. The area they land on is in a large shade. The biker recovers a moment later and gets up in sunlight. (00:52:30)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: When Renny makes a splash on Theresa's car, the post casts a shadow on the radiator, next to an inch away from the Nissan logo. Mike and Marcus take their time to bicker for a few seconds, and when Marcus checks the car with its now embedded corpse, the shadow is already on a portion of the logo. (00:51:20)

Bad Boys for Life (2020)

Continuity mistake: Mike infiltrated the spa to try and stealthily deploy Marcus Jr, but he is spotted. Theresa was getting pampered with both hands crossed on her belly, the bow of her belt tied an inch away from her hands. In the reaction shot, her relaxed position begins with her hands on top of the bow. Moreover, she turns and raises her head in those close-ups, while from the other side she is still supine, back on the bed, masseuse's hands on her shoulders. (00:49:20)
