Continuity mistake: Preparations for dinner with Courtney's parents. When Zak says to the women in the kitchen, "Look, for Courtney's sake," his mother, Julia, is wiping a glass, covering it with a rag, but in the next shot, the rag is off. (00:13:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Zak tells Ricky that, unlike him, Courtney's dad is not a recovering alcoholic, Ricky changes position between shots. A few shots later, Zak asks him to put a shirt on and is obviously leaning on him, but in the next close-up on Nick Frost, that's not happening. (00:13:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Ricky hits Union Jack with a garbage can lid, Union Jack rubs his nose, then lowers his hand as he says, "Fine." But then his hand is on his nose again. More shoddy continuity ensues; Ricky is told on the phone about another stunt, UJ is rubbing his neck, but the arm is down in the next shot. Yet another similar mistake occurs when Ricky asks for his approval after the groin shot; hand under the chin, then not, gesture repeated. (00:10:30)

Continuity mistake: When the WAW crew picks up the blind guy, he flips them off, but in the reverse shot, his arm is down at his side. (00:09:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Saraya is trying to give out fliers for the live wrestling show to three girls who are obviously not interested. One of them mentions Saraya's brother being on the news. Notice a guy with a sleeveless vest walking behind her left to right and out of frame. A few seconds later, when she reiterates that she does not like wrestling, the same guy is back behind them doing the same walk. It happens a third time; when rectal bleeding is mentioned, he exits stage right again. (00:08:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: One of the young AWA wrestlers, Ez, is a drug dealer; we see him hand some drugs to a guy with a grey hoodie who just walks off. The camera does not cut away. A couple of seconds after the deal, Ez spots Zak's van, and he sprints away. In the next shot, he turns the corner and runs past the guy he gave the drugs to; not only is this guy completely unfazed, but he also manages to put an ungodly amount of distance between them in just a few seconds by walking so calmly. (00:06:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: On the road after the jockstrap gag, Saraya's mum is holding the flip phone for her husband as he calls WWE. She holds the phone with her fingers on the lid at first, but supports it from the bottom half only when the angle changes. The finger position changes a few times again, on and off the lid and the display. (00:05:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the very first sort-of-match, Saraya has against her brother in Pink Ranger drag; he shoves her against the mat for the first match. However, she lands in different spots between shots, as you can see by the lines on the canvas. (00:02:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the sequence when Zak and Saraya's father, Ricky, coaches him on how to properly apply a choke on his sister during their domestic dispute, the kids' arms keep changing position between shots. (00:01:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Zak and Saraya begin to argue over the TV, their dog is turned one way in the wide angle, and then the other way around after a brief cutaway shot. (00:01:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When young Zak holds his cardboard replica belt, his hands keep changing position on it during the sequence. (00:01:05)

Red One (2024)

Continuity mistake: Gryla traps Jack and his son inside the snow globe. She talks to them at length, leaning against the shelf, her left hand between Dylan and the left part of the shelf. But once she says, "Tonight, I make the ride," the camera cuts to the two O'Malleys, and Dylan is suddenly at the far left edge of the shelf. (01:33:05)

Red One (2024)

Continuity mistake: The first time we see the snowman in Aruba, the snowman is standing in the shade of the trees as he reaches back to grab the freezing projectile; then he is fully in the sun when he throws it. (00:58:55)

Red One (2024)

Continuity mistake: In the staff room of the toy store, Callum gives Jack his Monopoly box to hold. The box does a 180° spin between shots, twice.

Lupin the 3rd (2014)

Factual error: In the opening heist, the gang of thieves wants to steal "The Medal of Zeus." A plate at the museum explains that in Ancient Greece, Olympic champions were awarded olive wreaths, up to the 88th Olympics in 424 BC, when a golden medal was given to the victor for the first time. This last bit about gold medals is just made up by the movie. But it also gets the timeline wrong; the 88th Olympics were in 428 BC. 424 BC is when the 89th games took place. (00:03:30)

Lupin III vs. Detective Conan mistake picture

Character mistake: The opening shot of the movie pans across a fence supposed to enclose the hunting reservoir of the royal family of the fictitious kingdom of Vespania. Judging by the sign on the fence, the official language of the country must be EngRish; the sign says "Land Demesne We knownothing [sic] about FIRE!", citing also as source for these cryptic messages the "internal secuLity act of 1950." (00:00:01)

Villains (2019)

Continuity mistake: When George gets shot, he lies flat on his back. When Gloria walks in on the scene, there's a closer view of him and he is lying on his side. (01:18:45)

Black and Blue (2019)

Continuity mistake: When Alicia puts flowers on her mother's tomb, she casts a shadow on the gravestone in side view, but none with the camera behind her back. (00:03:05)

The Ritual Killer (2023)

Factual error: Evil 'sangoma' witch doctor Randoku is supposed to have almost superhuman abilities, but the cops that chase him in Rome aren't too shabby either; they somehow manage to give chase from Piazza di Spagna to the Colosseum to Castel Sant'Angelo. That's roughly 3 kilometres from one landmark to the other, on foot, within minutes.
