Continuity mistake: Jerry gives Tor the piece of paper to decipher; the paper is curled towards him in the reverse shots, and Tor's hand is placed at a different height - just look at the fold. (00:17:30)

Unfinished Business (2015)
Continuity mistake: In Berlin, Tim and Dan are having a frank chat about the state of the business once Mike left. The wet stains on Tom Wilkinson' shoulders change throughout the scene - particularly obvious when at the end Dan says "We're gonna get this one, Tim" and he answers with his jacket practically dry. (00:42:30)

Life as We Know It (2010)
Continuity mistake: The day of Sophie's first birthday, just before the arrival of the babysitter the friends are having a toast with juice. When Messer asks "Are you crying? look at the glass in his hand; it's about 1/3 full, same as the rest the scene. Except after the doorbell rings, when Katherine Heigl asks "Why do you need a babysitter?" there's a brief close-up with Messer's chest in frame, and the glass there is about 2/3 full. (00:11:10)

Life as We Know It (2010)
Continuity mistake: In the shot the parents take with her daughter, Messer and Holly when the baby conks Katherine Heigl on the nose, Josh Duhamel's bottle is visible in frame, neck sticking out.

The Statue - S2-E6
Continuity mistake: The first time we see Ray, he kisses his fiancée's hand. Elaine in that shot is holding her papers, with the thicker black book closest to her chest. A couple of shots later when he bows to "Jerry, lord of the manor" the books in Elaine's arms have switched position. (00:05:50)

The Statue - S2-E6
Continuity mistake: George had enough of Ray's pawn shop story and jumps up calling him a thief. Watch the couple at the table; the woman, wearing a purple sweater, has her hand on the man's arm in the reaction shot, when nothing of the sort was happening in the wider angle. (00:15:30)

Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: The brothers in law are shaking hands with Captain Hernandez in front of the district. There's a woman with long brown hair and carrying a purse. She keeps passing them by walking up the stairs, twice with a friend with a purple top, once on her own, and comes down the stairs not too long after. She's not the only extra recycled / passing a few times in succession, for instance a bald black man in a dress shirt. (01:31:20)

The Dilemma (2011)
Continuity mistake: During the chat in the opening credits, Winona Ryder's right hand keeps changing position even when the flow of the conversation is continuous and there's absolutely no room for changes in between shots. When they talk about the crossbow case she even goes from holding a forkful of food, to a glass of wine. (00:02:00)

Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: For some reason, Olivia Munn decides to go create a distraction dancing with Pope. When she goes down the stairs, two women are ascending, but at the cut an entirely different one is coming up (who was also seen going down just at the beginning of the sequence anyway). (01:02:30)

Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: Pope stops the trio as they are trying to slip away from his residence during the party. Filmed from behind, he is talking to them being to Ben's right, but filmed from the front, he's positioned between Ben and Maya, to the point that when he walks forward they have to make way splitting left and right. (01:09:50)

Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: Ben and James have stopped the "ghost" truck. Ben is gloating that it's their "first bust as the Brothers-in-law." Notice the cone of light under the vehicle, at the lower part of the car door. Next shot it's suddenly gone. The side of the pick-up keeps switching between lit or not, and in the last shot from normal height the doors are even fully open. In the aerial shot that comes after, just one door is open and the other closed. (01:16:40)

Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: Lt. Brooks calls to announce that Ben's career is over. Ben walks away; in the aerial shot that follows, the cargo doors are open at different angle and the two policemen who were filling in reports by the guard-rail are missing. (01:19:25)

Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: After James and Ben have been notified their punishment, the gang is in a bar, figuring out what went wrong. When AJ says "Maybe the container was made of coke", Ben's crossed arms switch position (look at the wristwatch). (01:19:40)
21st Feb 2020
Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: When AJ tells the gang that there's a shipment every morning, Ben goes "Let's do it." Olivia Munn in the foreground has her chin leaning against the back of her hands; next shot and no hands in sight. Likewise, she changes arm position when James tells Ben that he needs to talk and they move away. (01:21:25)
21st Feb 2020
Ride Along 2 (2016)
Continuity mistake: James and Maya open the cargo container and find pile of of drugs and weapons stashed there. Ice Cube holds the automatic weapon in different ways depending on the angle (just look at the strap), and when Pope gives them a shout you can see also Olivia Munn reach for the gun (which is on the cargo bed) using her hands in a radically different way. (01:24:40)
