Continuity mistake: Four girls walk into the school and make a right turn into a hallway that is perpendicular to the double-wide blue door. They walk down the hallway for some distance, past at least three long sections of 15-20 student lockers between classroom doors. After the homeroom bell rings and only two girls are standing in the hallway, they are practically back to the double-wide blue door (near the first long set of lockers). (00:18:45 - 00:19:52)

Factual error: A body-sized floor-length mirror angled away from a wall would not be able to capture a mirror image of that wall or objects on or close to the wall (e.g, drapes, clock, table, etc). (00:06:16)

Continuity mistake: The dead rabbit was thrown onto its left side with its back almost parallel to the table's edge (width) and its nose/head almost in the corner. There was a bowl of several brown eggs several inches away from the rabbit's stomach. When the camera shifts, the rabbit's head has shifted at an angle away from the corner, its rear feet are slightly hanging over the table's edge (length), the bowl of eggs is touching the rabbit's stomach, and the eggs are piled on the opposite side of the bowl. (00:05:35)

Continuity mistake: When Kimmel was eating his steak, the position of the three beer bottles near the upper-left hand corner of the table changed. At first, they were close to his plate (two almost touching) and arranged like the first three bowling pins would be. A front view shows the three beer bottles further away from Kimmel's plate and at a different angle. (00:36:43)

KeyZOid

Deliberate mistake: It is unlikely that Kimmel shoving/ramming the beer bottles on the table using his dish and piece of steak in his right hand would shatter the beer bottles into such small pieces (or at all) like he did. (00:36:55)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: The "snow" is obviously fake and it is largely absent on the left third of the screen and, to a lesser extent, the right side. Although it apparently recently started snowing, the snow was not melting when it hit the pavement, which would mean it was cold enough for snow to also "stick" onto metal vehicles (but did not) and the car pulling into the alley should have left tire tracks. At various spots throughout the movie, "snowfall" is spotty and irregular. (00:26:48)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Walter tore out the newspaper article ("Body of Woman Found at Greenland Rest Stop") fairly neatly/evenly; it was relatively straight across the top, though a little jagged as could be expected. When Walter looked at the article some time later, the jagged top was worse and there was MORE space between it and the title. The right side also appeared to be more jagged than it was and include a little more of the article that was to its right before being torn off. (00:07:03 - 00:13:37)

Character mistake: According to David, the triplets were "adopted by a blue-collar family, a middle-class family, and a more affluent family." There are different ways to measure social class, but there are similarities. Bobby's more affluent family (father M.D.; mother attorney) would be "upper-middle." "Eddy's father was a teacher. Middle-class" would be "lower-middle." "My family had a little store...more blue-collar" would be lower - or upper-middle depending on income. All three families were middle class. (00:20:30)

Continuity mistake: After take-off, Mr. Anderson's hair changes a few times while he was talking to Rochelle. His bangs are combed back, but then he has strands hanging down his forehead and the top of his hair is dishevelled. After the camera shifts to Rochelle and back, Mr. Anderson no longer has the strands down his forehead but the right side is messy. When the camera shifts again, Mr. Anderson's hair is neatly combed back. (00:14:54 - 00:15:25)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The info Mike gives to others about Mohsin does not include him being a professor emeritus of virology at Humboldt-Universitat. Instead, Mike reports, "[Mohsin's] family relocated here to Berlin where he continued his research, financed by Farouk Ojjeh [with links to al-Qaeda and Syria]." If Mohsin went from Harvard Med School to a federal research grant and then to the private lab, there's no gap for him to have been a tenured professor who acquired emeritus status. (00:34:48)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: It looks like James still has the lens cover on his camera when he is taking pictures of Mohsin. Even in the dark, the lens should not look as black as the camera. (00:31:29)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The woman told James that Salim Mohsin was 42 and conducted research at a private laboratory. The part about Mohsin being "professor emeritus" of virology at Humboldt-Universitat seems contrary to his age (42) and the common meaning of "professor emeritus", which is retired and collecting a pension. It might also be unusual for a tenured professor conducting research at a university to leave in order to conduct research at a private lab. "Other" mistake because not sure of emeritus in Germany. (00:29:33)

KeyZOid

Deliberate mistake: A camera situated behind a front passenger seat of a vehicle could not capture a clear image of the front seat passenger's face (James') in the rear view mirror and then slightly alter its angle to capture the driver's (Mike's) face in the same rear view mirror. (00:21:25)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: On the way to the remote cabin in the mountains, the Jeep is driven through snow-covered roads and frequently has frosted windows. When the Jeep is approaching the "private" driveway/road, it has somehow been plowed (but is still snow-covered). Despite all the driving through snow and the windows usually frosted over, the Jeep looks clean and dry upon arrival and there is no snow on the tire treads. (00:22:32 - 00:23:21)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: When Grace goes outside chasing Aiden and Mia (who are attempting to get away in the Jeep), the amount of snow on the driveway is much lower than the surroundings, but no-one shovelled or plowed it. (01:37:50)

Trivia: Although North Carolina law does not permit minors to be tattooed even with parental consent, parental consent is allowed for ear piercings (for the purposes of inserting earrings or jewelry).

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The tattoo artist is almost finished drawing the American flag on the boy's upper right arm. After he wipes it and there's a quick camera shift, the tattoo is less complete - the stripes are bloodier, more jagged, and of unequal width like they were earlier. (00:14:31)

Other mistake: Abraham's wife appeared to hit him with the vase on his right shoulder, but Abraham put his hand on the side of his head. (00:58:35)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: Before Abraham stands near the wooden cross, there are piles of wood and a blue/white water hydrant (?) behind him. When he stands and takes a step, only one pile of wood is visible. After he takes a few diagonal steps behind the cross and turns around, he is standing in front of his house that was not there. (The house should have been visible when he was sitting near the cross). (00:45:51 - 00:46:12)

KeyZOid

Deliberate mistake: Abraham is sitting to the right of and slightly behind the cross he hammered into the ground, but is about 3' away. When there is a close-up, Abraham is much closer to the cross - the end of the crossbar to the right is directly above his shoulder and his knees appear to be close to the vertical bar. (00:45:15)
