Continuity mistake: Every time the refrigerator is shown at Jill's, from the first shot when George takes an apple, to the last shot when he puts toast in the toaster, the magnets on the door change positions. (00:06:20)

Continuity mistake: When George chases Jill, she tosses the paper bag as she gets up and runs into the hallway, but in the next shot not yet in the hallway she tosses the paper bag near the doorway. Also, when George stands up the plants are seen on the right, but later when Jill walks by, the plants are positioned differently. (00:07:20)

Shampoo (1975)
Continuity mistake: When Jill breathes into the paper bag, she and George walk by the kitchen and we see the objects on the counter. Then when George goes back into the kitchen, some of these things have changed their position, yet no one touched them. (00:06:25 - 00:07:40)

Shampoo (1975)
Continuity mistake: When George is goofing around in bed with Jill, in the wide shot her arms are hugging him around his neck and his right arm is under hers, but in the next close-up his right arm is around her neck and her arm is now under his. The mail on the bed differs in the two shots too. (00:07:25)

Audio problem: When George starts to chase Jill he has a huge mouthful of apple, but in the next two shots he's cackling and smiling, with there being no time for him to have chewed and swallowed. Also, although he cackles when he runs, his lips do not move at all, as it was obviously dubbed later. (00:07:20)

Continuity mistake: When Gwen pulls a chair out for Andrea she's holding a cup and the script, and in the back shot the paper isn't folded. Yet in the front shot, it's folded in half. When Andrea sits, in the back shot she holds the sock monkey in her right hand, but in the front shot it's in her left hand. (01:17:35)

Deliberate mistake: When the limo driven by Gwen (Sandra Bullock) runs over the white picket fencing it's not Sandra's face behind the wheel in the exterior shots. Also, when Gwen runs over the short white picket fencing, in the interior shot from the car the corner of an 'L' shape fence is being hit, then in the front exterior shot the end of a smaller fence is hit. This is cut from a longer sequence, the smaller fencing is seen way in the distance in the first shot. (00:07:45)
Deliberate mistake: Not only is the angle of the moonlight that shines through Jack's prison cell window intentionally exaggerated to enhance the shots with Jack, doggy, Koehler and Twigg, but in relevant shots, the moonlight is not seen coming through the window or the broken wall. Nor is it reflected on the floor outside the cells or in the cell next to Jack, particularly in the shots from the dog's POV looking up the corridor towards Jack. (00:36:00)
