Continuity mistake: Magnum is at the old ladies' residence and is talking with the card collector. In the close-up of the baseball broadcast, the object on top of the TV are gone. (00:08:45)
Continuity mistake: Magnum creates a Rodin-esque stack of beer cans. His store manager lambasts him, and when they are looking at his creation, it looks different already - the can he put on top as finishing touch is missing, immediately noticeable. (00:02:15)
Continuity mistake: The kid in the hospital has a very slim bracelet on his left wrist. In close-up when he sets the modem up he has a thick one. (00:24:30)
Continuity mistake: During the ending, when Rick tries to be happy for avenging his sister, and when his buddies try to lighten up the mood, Larry Manetti's hands go from juxtaposed to entwined, back and forth several times. (00:44:35)
Continuity mistake: In the finale, Rick says "But those agents said..." his left hand in the shade and with its side flat on the table by the beer stack. Next shot and it's raised and in a different spot, and so on and so forth as the two angles switch. (00:44:20)
Continuity mistake: The final automatic weapon burst that brings down the baddies breaks in close-up the right stoplight and the back license plate. The car rolls over, and before the explosion the license is in one piece, but taped blank. (00:42:55)
Continuity mistake: After Rick has covered the distance from the rocks to the house and touches the wall, it cuts back to TC's chopper with Magnum. In those two shots the chopper has flotation pads, while in all the other flight views it has the normal skids. (00:36:00)
Continuity mistake: Magnum asks Carol Baldwin "Please, come on, I need to know" pointing at her bag containing a large folder. Her left hand holds the bag differently at the cut (thumb on the inside / thumb against the buckle). (00:24:05)
Continuity mistake: Magnum stands up to drag Rick's debaucherous sister to Bambi; a drink appears in front of the girl all of a sudden, and so does Magnum's beer. (00:11:55)
Continuity mistake: In the club scene when Magnum finds out Rick's little sister is not that innocent, the same extras do back and forth plenty times, sometimes back-back or forth-forth too with no continuity. One of the most obvious offenders is the girl wearing a red dress splotched with blue flowers; she is in every other shot at the beginning and comes from Magnum's left twice in a row. (00:10:35)
Continuity mistake: At the bar, Rick's sister puts make-up on. She leaves the necessaire on the table when she begins to disrobe. She then picks up the clothes, and the make-up tools changed place and multiplied, showing also the brush and an additional powder box. (00:10:30)
Continuity mistake: For the ending, Rick is shown putting on his pants. Few seconds later, when Higgins shouts "Your uniform!" at him, he's putting on the belt with the gun holster, but a few seconds later the belt he's trying to buckle is still the pants', and the gunbelt is still on the table. (00:46:10)
Continuity mistake: During the hospital room dinner, Savannah reacts to Magnum burning his fingers by raising her hand from the table two times in two different moments. (00:34:30)
Continuity mistake: Holding the others at gunpoint, Waldo fetches the map from the table two times differently in two separate shots. (00:32:00)
Continuity mistake: When Waldo's unbelievable story gets into the President stage, Rick has his hands on his hips in the wide shot, arms folded in the close-up. (00:31:40)
Continuity mistake: When Higgins suggests "the standard double mirror device", TC's hand position changes between shots (fingers entwined, and then not). (00:29:30)
Continuity mistake: Overnight, Magnum uses the modem on his own. In the close-up when he picks up the receiver, the glasses on top of the tissue box are missing. (00:27:25)
Continuity mistake: In the first shot of Magnum's room during Rick's visit with Waldo's codes, the modem is to the left of the phone, along the left side of the bedstand. In close-up the modem and cables take the whole width of the bedstand, horizontally placed. (00:23:30)
Continuity mistake: Rick bends in front of Waldo reiterating that it "A little hard" to believe that he's with the CIA. In the reverse shot his arms are lower than the previous shot. (00:19:25)
Continuity mistake: Magnum is in the hospital. There's a kid playing Defender on an Atari with Rick. In the close-up, the cord of the joystick dangles to the left, very visible, but it is not in the other shots. (00:04:00)
