Goofs

• Continuity: When the camera is moving towards Marv like the bag of cement would, the falling rope is not visible in front of Marv like in the previous shot.
• Continuity: Makeup is visible before the first brick hits Marv.
• Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Kevin buys then breaks apart the beads, it is clear in the close-up that an older pair of hands are doing the breaking.
• Crew or equipment visible: When Kevin lights the rope on fire, he turns to run away and a crewmember is visible through the window.
• Continuity: The recording of Uncle Frank in the shower is much longer when Kevin plays it back in the Plaza Hotel. We hear things that were sung before and after Kevin started and stopped the recording.
• Continuity: If you turn the closed captions on, they will say "Oh, you're cooking, Frankie" when Frank sings it and "Oh, you're cooking with brandy" when Kevin plays it back while in the hotel.
• Crew or equipment visible: When Harry and Marv run out of the toy store's broken window, near the end of the movie, there are several shots of them where you can see into the store behind them. In one of these shots, you can see a person's left shoulder move behind a display on the left side of the screen (the person is wearing a heavy green jacket).
• Revealing mistakes: A black wire of some sort can be clearly seen connected to the staple that hits Marv's nose.
• Continuity: In the Plaza Hotel, Kevin asks Donald Trump where the lobby is. Trump says down to the left, but Mac goes down to the right, and arrives in the lobby.
• Continuity: When Harry and Marv first surprise Kevin outside the toy store, he drops his map of New York to the ground. However, in the long shot of this same scene, there is no map on the ground.
