The Little Things (2021)

Continuity mistake: The number of garbage bags containing Sparma's possessions vary when being transported in Deacon's SUV. Initially, only a few are visible in the cargo area, then a view shows many more, followed by fewer as Deacon continues to drive. When Deacon got to the site, it didn't look like there were any bags in the cargo area, but he POSSIBLY could have already got rid of them; this wouldn't make sense because there were many holes already dug at the site.

The Lost Husband (2020)

Character mistake: Jean rolls, kneads, and flattens the dough a few times, repeating the steps to give the image of still preparing the dough. After the dough was flattened, it was well-shaped (round, higher, and more compact) then flat again. The way she was shaping the dough suggests she was making biscuits, but biscuit dough should not be handled that much (or the biscuits would be flat and not flaky). (00:18:00 - 00:19:00)

Revealing mistake: The "bridge" within the crime scene tape is obviously a prop. It should be a continuation of the road, but it is tilted to the left and is more vertical (around 45°). The bridge isn't even very high. When Byron and others go under the bridge to look at the dead girl, there is only a few feet above their heads (clearance under the bridge). (00:04:54)

Factual error: The Channel 5 WNP Newscaster said, "it is now believed he [District Attorney Berdido] and his family were killed..." and running along the bottom of the screen was "4 confirmed dead in Fort Lauderdale gas explosion." This was a LIVE report showing two streams of water onto the house still burning inside. An investigation would barely, if at all, be started at this time and no-one would be "confirmed dead" this early. It would not even be known if anyone was home when the house exploded. (00:04:34 - 00:04:55)

Continuity mistake: In the initial view of Billy in the tree ("saved for later" by the leopard sleeping on another branch), his head is hanging face up alongside a tree branch as wide as his head. When the camera zooms in showing the middle of Billy's face, the left side of the screen should be all brown, representing the branch. Instead, there is blue sky down to his eye and blurred tan/brown representing the branch. The brown might supposed to be the dried grass, but Billy has not moved his head. (00:51:25)

The Virtuoso (2021)

Other mistake: The waitress said she got to Rosie's Cafe early and had to kill Rosie and the cook. She shot them and threw them down the basement steps, plus mopped up the blood before the loner arrived. The Virtuoso did not get there as early as he wanted to, but it was still about before 5:00 PM. He had briefly stopped along the road to ask the girl if she wanted a ride, and the waitress passed him at this point. The small amount of time the waitress was ahead wouldn't be enough time to kill and clean up. (01:35:30)

The Virtuoso (2021)

Continuity mistake: An exterior view of the window in the building across the street that the Virtuoso plans on shooting from shows it is comprised of three square panes stacked vertically. When the Virtuoso is inside behind the window, it is one large vertical pane. (00:10:27)

The Virtuoso (2021)

Character mistake: Still, not knowing who "White Rivers" is, the Virtuoso returns to Rosie's Cafe and continues to accept the Waitress' "passes." The Waitress was flirting (a mild term) with the Virtuoso from the time he first entered Rosie's. In addition to not abiding by his "do not get distracted" rule, he fails to even consider the possibility the Waitress was "White Rivers." Allegedly filling in for Rosie at the time given for the hit, plus her persistence in pursuing him, should have been a big red flag. (00:51:54)

The Virtuoso (2021)

Continuity mistake: When the Virtuoso goes into the kitchen at Rosie's Cafe, he sees three knives - two almost side-by-side with a third one between but below the two. When the Virtuoso goes to pick up a knife, there are now three knives side-by-side with a fourth one below the middle knife. (00:53:16)

The Nest (2021)

Continuity mistake: At the restaurant, the background varies a few times behind Beth and Jack seated at a table. When the background is blurred, a young man can be seen to the left behind Beth, but he is not there when the background is clear. (Despite the different camera angle, he should still be visible.) Instead, two men are seated at the bar counter or an elevated table and a woman behind them is facing the screen. (00:11:47 - 00:12:49)

Good Boys (2019)

Trivia: In the opening scene, Mr. Newman told Max, "Please be nice to your sister. Help your mom, and do not touch the drone." During this 90-minute movie, Max's mom Amy says three words ("Winter is coming") and is on-screen less than 10 seconds. Max's sister (not named) does not appear at all. (00:02:03 - 01:02:28)

Wrath of Man (2021)

Stupidity: For someone trained like "H", it was absurd that he would run down the center of the road toward masked gunmen and get shot multiple times. It was also ridiculous for him to have taken his son to a location that was potentially dangerous and put him in harm's way in the first place. (01:13:20)

Suggested correction: I'm not sure how much H was trained. If I recall correctly he's a skilled criminal, and all his "training" was faked so he could get the job with the company. Regardless... training or not, all that goes out the window when your child is being attacked. Paternal instinct took over and he was rushing in to protect his son. As for your 2nd point, it's made clear that his task was to simply stake out what was supposed to be a routine truck route. They had no idea the truck was going to be robbed.

Wrath of Man (2021)

Continuity mistake: The way "H" was lying on the road after getting shot was different in the aerial view shown shortly thereafter. H's body motions after getting shot were awkward enough - falling backwards but somehow managing to twist his body so that he could land facing the culprits. His body ended up being at about a 45°angle to the road barricades, but was parallel in the aerial view. Also, the road barriers would have blocked his view of the shooter and the ability of the shooter to look into his eyes. (01:13:35 - 01:13:56)

Good Boys (2019)

Continuity mistake: The contents of Hannah's purse that Thor dumped out on the table is inconsistent. While acknowledging that Thor did mix them up once and the position of items were rearranged, this cannot explain how no money ($20 bills) was on the table after Thor slid one bill off the table or how the money is back on the table several seconds later. Some money near the center of the table also suddenly appeared under Max's hand. (00:23:01)

Good Boys (2019)

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, the pillow propped up against the rear bed frame and parallel to the back of the erected laptop screen changes position a few times. The distance between the pillow and the open laptop varies from initially about one foot down to a couple inches (or almost touching). Depending on the camera's position, the pillow should have been obstructing the view of the laptop but did not because the pillow was (magically) shifted about 45°. (00:01:16 - 00:01:49)

Good Boys (2019)

Revealing mistake: The 3-light tree floor lamp in Soren's house (upstairs where Lucas and Thor encountered Hannah and Lily) has "fake" lights. Instead of seeing light from actual bulbs, each is simply a solid white circular shape. (01:16:30)

Good Boys (2019)

Continuity mistake: The way Max wrapped around and tied the cord to a decorative (inner) bed post is different immediately after he turns around to get back on his bed. The double loop, knot, and last few inches of the cord are instantly a single line that looks squarely clamped at the decorative post. A second later, it is tied differently again with the end of the cord in back of the larger end post. (00:01:46)

Good Boys (2019)

Continuity mistake: During the back-and-forth shots of the Good Boys facing the school and the girls (Hannah and Lily), the long-haired woman (wearing a white blazer/jacket and skinny jeans) walking briskly from the left side of the screen toward the right side is not properly coordinated with the shots. At times, she is not as far along as would be expected. She also walks from behind Lucas' back to off-screen (right side) two times. (00:27:30)

Continuity mistake: The candle to the far right in the candelabra is tilted to the right to various degrees or not in between shots. (The other candles aren't exactly straight up.) In one shot, the candles are further apart (not paced the same distance between them). The top half of the candelabra was tilted to the right when the right candle was leaning against the wall. (00:24:27 - 00:25:20)

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The duct tape placed over the cut on the Janitor's left cheek is inconsistent in appearance many times. Initially, the piece of duct tape torn off the roll has a small piece missing on the lower right-hand corner that isn't there afterwards. Sometimes the lower edge of the duct tape is rippled (wavy), other times it is flush with the skin. (00:23:11 - 00:27:11)
