• Continuity: Rahim looks at the picture of Soraya, Amir's wife, and puts it down on the table (at 77:20), but we don't actually see where he puts it. In the next shot, the picture is not seen anymore.
  
  
• Revealing mistakes: The last scene shows the kites flying in a strong wind, but there is none at ground level (note her hair), nor matching chop on the water, and the glimpse of a sailboat suggests a breeze from the another direction.
  
  
• Factual errors: In the scene at the stadium just before the Taliban official gives his speech there is a soccer game going on and most of the players are wearing shorts. The Taliban did not allow shorts or revealing clothes of any kind to be worn, even at an athletic event. They imprisoned and persecuted members of visiting Pakistani teams for wearing shorts.
  
  

• Factual errors: When Sohrab is first brought in, the Taliban play some music and make him dance, but the real Taliban banned all music in Afghanistan.
  
  
• Continuity: When Hassan first points the slingshot at the three big guys to save Amir it is crossed but in the next shot it appears to be normal again.
