This is probably my favorite James Bond with Pierce Brosnan. What took me by such a surprise is in the beginning when James is captured and tortured. Wow, that was pretty tough to watch. That aside, here are the mistakes I found.
During the sword-fighting scene with James and Gustav, Gustav cuts James' knee, as the scene continues there is no blood or injury.
When James sees Jinx for the first time, she is coming out of the water. It shows Jinx as being soaking wet. The scene cuts back to James then back to Jinx. As it shows Jinx again, she is reaching for her towel but she is already totally dry.
In the scenes that show us the Ice Palace, we can see mountains surrounding it. When James eventually escapes The Ice Palace, you can see that the external location has changed and that there are no more mountains.
When James and Jinx cut through the fence to get onto the airplane, it is very dark. However, shortly after the plane takes off it is broad day light.
After Bond is captured, he jumps onto a truck. Before he jumps, it shows him with his hands tied. As he lands onto the truck he reaches for two of the men to help break his fall, and his hands are no longer tied. Shortly after if shows Bond again and his hands are again tied.
In the final fight scene, in the plane Jinx fights with Agent Frost, played by Rosamund Pike. Agent Frost cuts Jinx in the stomach and blood is drawn. Later when Jinx and James are poring diamonds across her stomach, she is no longer injured.
These are the mistakes I found, but I am sure there are many more. If you are like me and look for mistakes in movies, please share with all of us and post them on the movie mistakes forum.
