Continuity mistake: When the first trooper falls dead on the crates at the beginning of the movie, there's a continuity error since his hand changes position on the crate between shots. (00:00:55)

The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles
Other mistake: In the 4th chapter "The Adventure of the Clouded Kokoro", Iris is able to deduce that the protagonists have visited a prison inmate because of a red stamp on Susato's hand. However, it's apparent that the stamp, which is pretty large and in a part of the hand often on display because of the typical gestuality of the Ace Attorney female assistants, was never there before.

Sangatsu no raion (1991)
Continuity mistake: In the first meeting with the man with the hat, Ice puts one foot on the portable cooler, but the position of the foot on the floor changes when there's a cut. Even more obvious, when she steps in front of him, the tip of her red stilettos touch his feet, but at the cut their tips are distant, and she moves in with her right foot first, as opposed as before. (00:09:15)

Uccidete Rommel (1969)
Continuity mistake: The morning after the sexual assault on the colonel's wife, the protagonist watches the jeep leave for the airport without him. During the scene, the shadows on the road before the hotel change between shot and reverse. (00:34:30)

Foxtrap (1986)
Continuity mistake: Mr. Fox gets to his apartment building sporting a huge cigar. He briefly talks, or at least attempts to communicate, with the girl in the lobby, and the cigar is gone. The cigar is back the moment he opens the door to his flat and the goons jump him.

Zorro (1975)
Factual error: In the bar in Cartagena amongst the goods advertised there's a sale of slaves of color ("Negroes"). However the movie is set in the early XIX century and the sale the poster refers to (listing very specific figures) took place in South Carolina in 1769.

The Suicide Squad (2021)

Visible crew/equipment: Waller is telling "Task Force X" about the additional mission they need to pursue, saving Rick Flag. Watch the shot when Bloodsport repeats "Rick Flag?" and Waller replies "I know." The team is going through dense, uninhabited tropical jungle, but in the trees there are people in T-shirts just standing around looking at them. (00:31:50)

The Suicide Squad (2021)
Other mistake: Bloodsport and the others see the explosions Harley is running from, which are less than a couple miles off. The beach itself should already be lit by the explosions and burning wreckage, which the team couldn't fail noticing as they were approaching. To make the distances more ludicrous, when we see Flag's signal in the control room it's said he's "1 mile north" of them, He's already halfway towards the western isthmus. No reason why it'd take them a whole day to make it to their destination.

The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Harley slaps the now dead Javelin in the face asking frantically about his incomplete dying words. Literally one moment her hand is on his cheek, the next is mid-length on the shaft of his weapon. (00:26:50)
30th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Briefing scene, Ratcatcher 2 raises her hand to ask her question. Notice her right hand, open on top of her thigh. Close-up, and her hand is closed and to the inner side of the thigh. The hand is back in its original position when the first angle is used again. (00:23:45)
30th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Peacemaker and Bloodsport are following Amanda Waller through the female section. There are two girls at the table in the center, one with patchwork colorful skin, the other whistling at them. When it cuts to a close-up, neither is in the appropriate position; the whistler's hand dropped and the Kaleidoscope, who already got up, still has her forearms on the table. (00:20:40)
30th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Bloodsport is talking to his daughter about her crime. During the conversation, the continuity between shot and reverse gets jumpy at times; for instance when he mentions that she "dragged out the paternity test" Idris Elba stretches out his arm only to be still when his daughter screams at him. Later on he reminds her he told her to do 'her thing' and gesticulates with the right hand, but his arm is still and low in the next shot. (00:00:17 - 00:16:50)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Other mistake: Javelin already appears amongst the deceased (red layer) on the monitors, but only intermittently, in different shots his status is normal - at the very least he should have the 'critical condition' brown overlay that TDK has. (00:14:00)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: In the suicide mission on the beach, Flag makes a run for it behind Harley who just ducked behind a rock. Harley is in a dark corner; Flag dives by her, and the camera angle changes showing her into the spotlight. Sane later when TDK's arms are floating and pass by them in bright light. (00:09:55)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Amanda Waller told Flag that they cannot retreat from the beach. Harley chirps "Okie dok" as a response; in the first shot she is putting her right hand on the weapon, but in the next she is out of focus in the foreground with the same hand on her earpiece. (00:09:15)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Once he reassured the crew about Weasel, Flag orders everyone to get in the position for the paradrop. He motions towards them bringing his hand down, which is operating a switch above him in the next shot. (00:05:55)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Blackguard is panicking because of 'the werewolf' but Rick Flag interjects that he's 'harmless'. He then has to add that he's not -that - harmless, having slaughtered a couple dozens of kids; when the camera angle changes before he says that, the actors have changed positions. For instance, Margot Robbie had her hands clasped together before her chest, then she has them in her lap. (00:05:45)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: On the way to the airdrop, Blackguard asks the others "Is this thing a dog?" Next to him, TDK has his hand in his lap to a fist in one angle, palm down on his thigh in the next. (00:05:20)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: Savant is taking a look at the rest of the team. The blonde Blackguard is goofing off with the guard closest to him as he shimmies. Closer angle, he puts his hand on the gun on his left PC. Next shot, and he's back swaying with both arms down. (00:02:40)
27th Aug 2021
The Suicide Squad (2021)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the movie, a goldfinch lands in the corner of the prison courtyard. There's a wet/mouldy area in the corner that is suddenly much smaller in the following close-up. (00:01:10)
