Latest revision as of 18:11, 27 February 2007

• Boom mike visible: The shadow can be seen in Isabel's mirror.
• Revealing mistakes: When the Night Fox calls Danny Ocean the night before the theft is due to take place, the phone rings in the hotel room but has stopped ringing just before Danny picks it up.
• Factual errors: Laser security systems need an emitter and a receiver for each beam. The system in the film has no receivers, and so would be useless for detecting movement.
• Revealing mistakes: Makeup is visible on the inside of Linus's collar when he unlocks his own handcuffs.
• Factual errors: The pillars in Amsterdam are driven into the sand to stabilize the foundations of the houses. There is no water surrounding the pillars at any level. The film suggests that the houses are built like offshore platforms which is simply not the case.
• Crew or equipment visible: When Amazing (the "Grease Man") is being arrested outside the art museum, the camera is reflected in the window of the opened passenger door.
• Continuity: In the car from the airport, Linus hands Tess a square pillow to stuff under her dress, but when Tess takes the pillow out in her jail cell, it is round.
• Continuity: The newspapers on the table in the train change positions and layout between shots.
• Continuity: When the convoy of black Range Rovers pulls out of the Rome Police facility, Isabel is following it in an unmarked Police car, a silver colored Lancia. But in all the earlier takes showing the Police facility courtyard, the only silver colored unmarked Police car on the scene is a 3 series BMW.
• Factual errors: The real Faberge egg is supposed to be transported from Paris to Rome by train as LeMarc tells the team of Diaz. They are supposed to get on the train from Gare du Nord in Paris. This is a mistake as all trains from Gare du Nord are due north. Trains to Italy would leave from Gare de Lyon.
• Continuity: When Danny is telling the group about the Nightfox you hear Yen asking a question, but Yen hasn't come back after being lost in the bag with the football team.
• Continuity: When Danny knocks on Rusty's hotel door after being woken up by the Nightfox's prank wake-up call, Rusty tells him the time is 11:30 the night before the heist. However, the sun is obviously coming through the windows in both Danny's hotel room and Rusty's as the two of them watch TV.
• Miscellaneous: At the end credit, in the thanks, the french word "préfecture" is misspelled ("préfècture de police de Paris")
• Factual errors: Early in the film Danny is seen riding in Amtrak car 54525, presumably in Connecticut, but this type of train car is not used in Amtrak's Northeast Corridor service and is primarily seen in the Midwest.
• Miscellaneous: In the very beginning of the movie (when Rusty is entering the room) half of the tattoo on his left arm is missing.
• Continuity: In the flashback scenes, the length of Isabel's hair is inconsistent.
