Anachronisms
In the theater when Flint is dancing ballet with Natasha and shows the audience clapping at the end , that scene is obviously taken from another period film because the characters are dressed in military uniforms and female costumes of the nineteenth century .
Continuity
The tail registration number of Flint's private Learjet aircraft changes from ending in an "L" under the jet wing to a "LJ" in flight.
When Cramden visits Flint at his apartment, Flint's robe goes from being untied and open, to partially closed, to closed and tied, and then back to open.
When Flint flees Natasha's apartment, there are three KGB pursuing him. He throws one off the ledge but later there are still three pursuing him - two on the roof of Natasha's building and one on the roof of the small tower where Flint is.
Crew or equipment visible
When Mr. Cramden visits Flint to ask him for help a crew members shadow is clearly visible on the wall behind him as he is being told to smile and lower his hand slowly so he doesn't get bitten by the dog.
In the scene where Flint is holding Natasha the ballerina up in the air, the lifting wires are visible behind Natasha's left arm.
When Flint is first in Cramden's office, the fake-pencil eavesdropping device is lying broken on the floor, but the wire powering the little blinking light inside can be seen running across the carpet.
Errors in geography
When the Flint girls tell Flint they're going to Fabulous Face in the Virgin Islands, one of them tells Flint that it is only a couple of hours from Rio.
Rio, is over 3,000 miles away, not even the Concord could fly there in a 'couple of hours'; and the Concord didn't start flying until 2 years after the movie was released.

Revealing mistakes
Obvious mannequin when the president's double kidnaps the real president.
When Flint is breaking free of the cryogenic chamber with the sonic device, you can see the cracks in the glass before it breaks.
In the final scenes with General Carter and Derek Flint in the space capsule, their helmet visors are down and locked until they reach orbit, then they both rotate their clear visors upward to where they can breathe cabin air. Then during the fight, both mens' visors mysteriously work their way back down and latched, just before Flint opens the air lock and leaves the capsule.
