Other mistake: The opening (like most of the movie) does not make much sense, so you can pick your kind of mistake here; the special effects are cartoonishly bad throughout the big firework explosions. When John Abraham is knocked through a window by a rocket (which takes off with a 270° turn without even rising) to the face, he gets up unscathed and starts screaming for Junky and Chandu. The camera moves from them to him and he's running with the girl in the red costume in front of him (which was way behind, safely, when he crashed through the window, so already that is wrong), and then there's a wider shot. In that shot, you can tell that Adams is bumping into the same people as before and the distances between the extras are all wrong. (00:06:35)

Continuity mistake: Carolyn puts on her pink dress and asks Tallulah to zip her up. Tammy Blanchard puts her hair up in a bunch, but there's a large bang to the left side of her face that stays down. In the reverse shot though, she got all her hair up. (00:18:20)

Factual error: After the intro, Elena McMahon is at a press conference addressing the mining of ports in Nicaragua. It is set in the spring of 1984, as the captions and Rosie Perez say, and yet Anne Hathaway delivers the sick burn on the Secretary of State George Shultz using the infamous "I am a Contra too" pseudo-quote by Reagan who originated in a speech (not 'on TV' as she states) delivered in March 1986.

Factual error: The girls missed the bus for the football match because one of them got stuck. Luckily they manage to stop a passing truck and ask for a lift to overtake the bus, which, they stress, was bringing the girls "to Trabzon." When their custodians see them cheer on TV and drama ensues, the match is Galatasaray (GS) vs Trabzonspor (TZS); the home team is Galatasaray, so they should be playing in Istanbul. (00:27:30 - 00:29:30)

Factual error: The Cadillac that stalks Professor Joshua Mansky at the beginning of the movie when he gets in the bar has a license plate (517-UCE) with a number format and design not compatible with the time period, the 70s at earliest. The movie is set in 1962. (00:03:30)

Continuity mistake: The protagonist is driving his diminutive car to the villa. In the view from the villa (Avishai Cohen's name pops up) you can see a large shadow covering the area of the gate. In the reverse shot that part of the road is fully lit. (00:06:00)

Continuity mistake: During the opening credits the protagonist is talking with his parents. Throughout this, the whiskey in the bottle changes level depending on the shot. (00:01:20)

Continuity mistake: When William Baldwin spills macaroni on his MacBook, in the close-up of the notebook keyboard you can see part of the screen in the background. The chat app he supposedly is using is empty of any text, no trace of the conversation he is having in the rest of the scene. (00:05:00)

Revealing mistake: Davey at the beginning of the movie is looking at the newspaper he's delivering to Mr. Wayne Mackey. Just from a glance at the page you can tell that something is off, since the article supposedly about a missing boy appears to be written entirely in first person. Upon closer inspection, turns out that it's filler text from chapter IV of Robert Louis Stevenson' s "Treasure Island". (00:01:30)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: Humphrey checks in at the station in the morning, and he has one extra coffee cup. When he asks Fidel about the cane, he is holding the cups with his fingers positioned higher up against the lids. (00:31:55)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: During the funny exchange when Dwayne is on surveillance and the other two are not and argue about that, the bottle of Tensel beer in front of Fidel faces opposites directions between shots. (00:30:35)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the scene with the swimsuit model, the waiter comes out from behind the counter, moves behind Camille, but takes a couple seconds after he goes out of frame for him to appear behind Samuel Anderson. (00:28:30)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Deliberate mistake: When Fidel pops behind Humphrey with the walking cane, in nonsensical fashion his cane switches hands in the brief moment when the camera moves from behind him to the front of Humph. It has to be deliberate since there is no cut, but Fidel is standing still both times, and Gary Carr must have done a sudden swap that has no reason. (00:28:20)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: When Goodman sticks on Dwayne the task of surveilling Captain Jack Parrot messing up his hot dating plans, Dwayne lowers his hand, and in the next shot he has it back up again. (00:26:55)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: When Humphrey basically sums up the case after he calls Dwayne "Master of the Understatement", Kris Marshall depending on the camera angle does his weird gesticulations with the left or the right arm. (00:26:25)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Character mistake: After a long day of various inquiries around the island and a lot of roaming and chit-chatting, DS Camille Bordey and DI Humphrey Goodman go back to the station wondering "if the photographs from Matthew Webster's camera have finished downloading." (00:23:50)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: Camille picks up a small copy of the map from Yasmin Blake's booth. She turns it 90° and drums its side with her fingers, but when the editing returns to the previous camera angle as it's time to leave, she's holding the map the same way as before, and with her hand firm on the side. (00:23:30)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: Goodman asks Yasmin Blake about the tour, and he traces the path on the map on the wall. In close-up, it's a right hand that does all the gesturing, but in the wider angles Kris Marshall has his right hand in his pocket, and it's the left he uses for that purpose. (00:23:15)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: When Camille tells Humphrey about having a date with a swimwear model, she has her index finger less than one inch away from the label of the folder in the front views, but in the reverse the hand is noticeably lower on the page. (00:21:55)

Episode #3.6 - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: At Humphrey's after speaking with Alec Burton, Camille is looking through documents when the scene begins. She lowers the paper in her right hand in the very first shot, it is higher up in the following, and she has yet to open the document folder in the frontal. (00:21:25)
