Continuity

When Nicky, Frank Marino, Jennifer are in the kitchen after they return home from their flight, Nicky makes Jennifer turn her head upside down to have the diamonds he stole & smuggled through airport security fall out of her hair up-do onto the table. After all they all fall out, her hair "bun" releases and is hanging down in an undone, long ponytail. But immediately after that shot when the camera switches angles, Nicky slaps her on the cheek and her hair is back up in a bun the way it was originally.

SPOILER. As Nicky and his brother are being buried in the desert grave, Dominick is dumped into the grave first and lands on his right side, facing right. The next time we see him, moments later, he is lying on his left side, and facing left as Nicky is dumped on top of him.

After Nicky has stabbed the man with the pen in the bar, he puts the hand that was holding the pen up on the bar counter. Although, the pen that was in his hand had been covered in blood, his hand is clean.

After being chastised by his mother, Piscano backs into a display of olive oil, displacing some bottles. In the next shot of them, they are perfectly arranged.

Near the end of the movie, when Sam's car is blown up, it is daytime. When Sam is put in the ambulance, it is nighttime and pitch black.

Factual errors

After the failed car bombing, Sam is put into the ambulance feet-first. People are loaded into ambulances head-first, since most of the monitoring equipment is in the front.

As Philip Green is coming off the plane and is being questioned by the press about Anna Scott's murder, one of the cameramen (the one who walks in front of the movie's camera) is seen carrying a camera not connected to anything. That model of camera (the RCA TK76) required an external tape deck/battery pack, otherwise the camera wouldn't function at all. The other two cameramen in the scene have their cameras tethered to the external equipment.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

Don Ward, the fired overseer of the slot machines, is said to be the county commissioner's cousin, but later is said to be a brother-in-law. These terms are not mutually exclusive - his "hillbilly" accent makes it even easier to believe that he can be both.

When Nicky shoots the lady in the kitchen his arm is placed directly in the gun's aim and is not hit by an exiting slug. However, since the bullets were .22 caliber, and quite likely shorts, they likely never exited the skull.

Nicky says "...meet me a hundred yards down the road". Ace narrates: "...when I heard him say a couple hundred yards down the road..."

Revealing mistakes

Wrist pads visible on Ginger when Nicky throws her out of the restaurant.

Obvious dummy in the car immediately before the explosion.

Just before Ace's car explodes, his narration says the dynamite was placed under the passenger's seat. Yet when the explosion occurs, it is the engine compartment that blows up first.

When Anna Scott is shot, Nicky Santoro tilts her head and the blood begins to dribble out of her mouth. Actor Joe Pesci places his hand near actress Ffolliott Le Coque's throat immediately after this is done, and Le Coque visibly swallows twice, even though her character is supposed to have just been killed.

When the card cheater gets his hand smashed with a hammer, at first he doesn't flinch or move his hand in any way and his fingers are widely spread. The camera changes angles and now his fingers are spaced closely together and he's wiggling them. From this angle, the security guard delivers one more hammer blow but it is actually off to the side. For the first cut, they must be hitting a prosthetic hand with spread fingers since it never moves. For the second, they then bring the actor's actual hand in but keep his fingers tight to avoid accidentally hitting them.

Miscellaneous

Although this is refuted, the scene where Nicky murders witness Anna Scott should be considered an error. His arm is on the other side of her skull in the line of fire. How a professional assassin would KNOW that the bullets wouldn't exit into his arm is ludicrous. No experienced killer would take the chance. The writer says they were likely short bullets, but there is no basis for that conclusion.

During the scene where the cowboy is exited out of the casino headfirst by the security guards, one of the guards hits his head on the door frame.

The cowboy who discusses his cousin's firing with Deniro, wears a huge turquoise bolo tie that's later worn as a necklace by Ginger when she exits the courtroom with Deniro.

As Nicky Santoro (Pesci) was was heading out to the desert to meet Sam with multiple car changes, the unseen FBI agent says "OK, he's out. It's the ant. Brown unit." Nicky Santoro is based on Anthony "the ant" Spilotro in the book, but should never have been called the ant in the movie as his name was changed.

Anachronisms

In the first newscast scene, before Ace's license hearing (which takes place around 1980), the Mirage hotel and casino can be seen in the background shot of Las Vegas. The Mirage was not completed until 1989.

When Ace and Nicky take a drive around Vegas after Nicky first arrives in town, there are several modern vehicles visible on the streets around them.

The shots of "The Stardust" and the entry to "The Flamingo" show the results of redesigns done in the early 1990s.

The Budweiser bottle the cowboy (with his feet on the table) is drinking is of the modern (1995) model and not the correct 1970's style.

A close-up shot of silver dollars in the beginning of the film reveals a bicentennial silver dollar, released during the years 1975-1976. The film's beginning takes place in 1973.

Audio/visual unsynchronised

The sound of shoes walking on floor is heard in the bedroom when Ginger returns to Ace after he throws her out of the house. The bedroom is carpeted, so Ginger's shoes shouldn't have made any sound.

Nicky squeals the tires of his car in the dust in the desert.

When Ace and Sherbert are entering the car to chase after Ginger, the car starts up before Ace is even in the driver's seat.

In the scene when Nicky and Frank collect from the bookie Frank points and says "smarten up," but his lips don't move.

in the scene where Ginger and Sam/Ace are at dinner at a restaurant, the camera keeps switching back and fourth to Ginger and Ace, when the camera is looking at Ginger, Ace is talking to her, but he is not moving his mouth.
