Factual error: The mall robbery happens on July 1st, as shown on the newspaper clipping Diana finds, which is coherent with the events depicted in the movie (they rob the mall on the 1st, the day after the stone is at the Smithsonian and Diana and Barbara bond over dinner, then on the 3rd Maxwell arrives, grabs the stone at the evening party, and he is already super powerful the afternoon he takes off for Cairo). Problem is, July the 1st was a Sunday, and not just the mall, but pretty much any other store downtown is open, and similarly since it's the 4th, financial operations wouldn't be happening (although in this case you could always argue that we deal with wishes - but it's an extra layer of implausibility). (01:04:05)

Other mistake: In the end credits, two actors are credited as "Camaro driver" and "Camaro passenger." The sports car that appeared in the movie (without a mandatory front license plate) was however a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. (00:11:35 - 02:26:00)

Other mistake: Flying the jet plane, Steve is surprised by the lights in the sky and needs Diana to explain to him that it's fireworks and it's the 4th of July. Fireworks are something that has existed for centuries, and Steve himself was the one who found the plane ticket for the 4th commenting "If this date is right." (01:11:30)

Continuity mistake: Max (Pedro Pascal) wishes to magically remove Simon from his path, and the Feds arrive. He asks one of them for information who shoos him off. Notice that two more agents are joining. Max then walks back to the entrance and those same agents are walking again, and when a few seconds later he's outside looking in, they are still just barely now joining the others. (00:55:40)

Continuity mistake: Max approaches Dr. Minerva on the stairs at the party. When he tells her not to accept "the limitations of nature", look behind her at the people coming down the stairs; there's a very characteristic man with a moustache, tan sunglasses and greasy hair. Seconds pass, and when Minerva chuckles at Max's remarks, there's that same guy again descending that same flight of stairs. (00:42:50)

Factual error: Diana decides to attend the party Lord invited her to. The music played as she makes her way through the various sleazeballs is "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" from Frankie Goes to Hollywood's eponymous album, which was released in 1984 yes, but just on October 29th, and almost a whole year later as a single. The movie takes places around 4th of July. (00:41:05)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Gal Gadot just bumped into Kristen Wiig. She walks off and Natasha Rothwell (Carol) asks her if she knows her insignificant co-worker. When Wiig says "Remember you hired me? Started last week?" she has both hands clasped together at the briefcase in one shot, while in the reverse she's pointing at herself and only then her hands join supporting the case. (00:21:35)

Continuity mistake: Minerva is on the floor picking up papers and trying to get her colleagues' attention. When they walk past her, she changes the hand she is using to pick the paper far away from her, and she has suddenly an extra paper standing conspicuously still vertically into the briefcase. (00:20:25)

Other mistake: Wonder Woman pushes the cute kid to safety onto a big FAO Schwarz plush. She then lassos the two baddies and springs to the opposite side of the mall hall to capture the last two, then turns to her left and exchanges knowing looks and complicit winks with that kid that is still sunken into the plush toy. They should be nowhere near close enough for her to do that. (00:16:00 - 00:16:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Wonder woman dashes towards the last of the goons who were robbing the store at the mall, his buddy who is already on the floor has his hand on his belly in the first shot, behind his keister in the next. (00:16:30)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: Wonder Woman is downtown in DC saving random people. She kicks a red sports car that was probably going to run over a hideously dressed jogger. She kicks it from the right side. The car spins towards the middle of the crossroads, and its hood faces the left turn of the crossroads. For a moment we see Wonder Woman go 'woosh' crossing the road in front of the car that is at a full stop in that position. It does not even begin to make sense, she is not coming from the same part of the road she was at. (00:11:45)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: A couple walks in front of the TVs in the store window during Max's speech. The guy has a cigarette packet in hand, but when Max's voice finishes the sentence with "but are you reaping the rewards?" he has already a cigarette in his mouth. (00:11:25)

Other mistake: In the first Wonder Woman movie, Queen Hippolyta, Wonder Woman's mother, was adamant that Diana was never to be trained as a warrior, fearing the fact that making her stronger would draw Ares to her (or vice versa), and argues with her sister who was training her in secret when she finds out; this incident happens when Diana is an adolescent. In this movie, a much younger, still child-like Diana takes part (and nearly wins) a contest between the fiercest athletes, involving horseback archery. The Queen should be freaking out and look for whoever put a weapon in her kid's hand, and instead she is perfectly happy, obviously cheering for her and at the end she even gives her a pep talk telling her to look up to...the great warrior Asteria.

Continuity mistake: When young whiny Diana is being consoled by her mum, Connie Nielsen has the thumb on the top of Diana's shoulder either through hair or free from it, depending on the shot. (00:10:30)

Sammo ★

Character mistake: Diana losing the race is presented by the movie as some sort of a judgement call from her aunt who tackles her as she is about to finish, to punish her for cheating taking a shortcut. "But I would have won!" she cries, and her aunt explains to her that it would have not been right. Simply put...No! That's not the case; the movie itself shows that Diana missed a checkpoint, which are recorded and represented visually in the main stadium by flags being unrolled each time one is reached. She did not take a shortcut, she went through the wrong path. (00:08:05)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: To win the race, the 9 Amazons need to shoot color coded targets from a wheel that has 7 possible 'arrows'. That seems already rather impossible, since the colors are unique to the contestants. Moreover, Diana's color, blue, is consistently on top in the 12 o'clock position, but their rivals' insignia in yellow and red change position, adding an unfair advantage to the heroine, or to be precise, they are at 10 and 2 the first time, 4 and 7 the rest of the time. (00:05:55)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: The contest begins with 9 Amazons, but there are only 6 horses on the beach. One could think then that maybe it's an elimination game and it's done on purpose to weed out the slowpokes who finished last the first part of the race. Then again...they race to pick up their bow and arrows from seven racks. (00:03:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The contest begins and Young Diana is racing with other 8 Amazons. Their first goal is to get to a platform by either climbing ropes or using some mechanical contraption. When you look at the shot when Diana lands on the platform though, it is her, 4 on the ropes and 2 others in the air catapulting themselves on top like she did. That is a total of 7 contestants out of 9, and seems rather unlikely that two of the elite amazon athletes could pull a muscle jogging across the yard, which seems the only reason why they wouldn't be anywhere near the contested spot. Somehow it's again 9 Amazons in the faraway shot of the poles, but only 6 in the shot from the base of the poles. (00:03:45)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Antiope is talking to her as she is getting ready for the contest, behind Young Diana there are a few warriors who walk their horses towards the large portal (that was closed initially and now is open). Their distance from Diana change incoherently between shots, and so do their numbers. Particularly noticeable as Diana gets ready to sprint before the gong; two girls watching and clapping become three talking amongst themselves. (00:03:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the Amazonian contestants are lined up, there are 5 other Amazons to the side that are doing some warm up exercises. There are just three when Diana's mother is looking at the arena from her platform. In the same area those three disappear in the aerial shot of the stadium before the race starts, but are there by the 'ref' in the shot from the gong platform. Also, when the athletes sprint there are now a group of two and one of three. (00:02:30)
