RV (2006)

Audio problem: The Gornickes and Munro family pull out of the gas station in their bus-type vehicle while Bob is coming down the hill on the bike. There is a "ding ding" sound typical of full service gas stations or auto repair places. These require the long black wires to trigger when tires run over them but no wire is visible.

Breakdown (1997)

Trivia: When Jeff tries to get Red to pull over on the road, he almost misses an RV and has to swerve at the last minute. In front of where he swerves is a big rock looking thing, right frame. It is there to hide the camera filming the lower angle shot we see in this sequence.

Revealing mistake: When Clouseau is floating out of his apartment in his costume, in several shots you can see the shadows of the chimney behind him in the sky, indicating this was shot in a studio.

Continuity mistake: Clouseau and the doorman are stuck in the sauna, and Clouseau draws on the window to see out as it is streamed up. The level of steam on the window changes during this sequence.
