Franka Potente in Run Lola Run (1998)

Goofs

Run Lola Run

Edit

Continuity

At the end of the first run, Manni and Lola rob a supermarket. At the end of the third run, when Lola scans the intersection for Manni, the same supermarket is closed and dark. The filmmakers were unable to secure permission to close down the streets for filming, so the scene was filmed just after dawn on a Sunday morning to avoid traffic.
While supposedly the film takes place within 20 minutes of noon hour, the shadows outside the casino are far too long for the hour.
On the end credits, the part of Herr Meier, played by Ludger Pistor, got spelled Meier, while his handwritten signature in the opening credits' mugshot sequence spells it as "Meyer".
In Part 1, Lola leaves the bank and looks to her right. The shot from this side then shows Lola facing in this direction with a young woman approaching in the background (i.e. Lola's left). The next shot (from the front) has an old woman appear from Lola's left.
As Manni goes to rob the supermarket the first time, the gun is poked into his trousers near his left hip. When he actually goes to enter the supermarket, he draws the gun from the waistband of his trousers on his right hip.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

In each of the three stories, Lola runs alongside an ambulance. The patient in the ambulance is the bank guard that was having chest pains (visible in the second story) and not someone that was only injured in one of the stories.

Revealing mistakes

When Lola shoots the electronic lock, you can see the slide lock back on her pistol, clearly showing the firearm is out of ammo, but a fraction of second later she shoots the door handle lock.
When Lola screams and shatters a glass clock in act 1, a projectile can be seen going through the glass and bouncing off the wall.
(at around 1h 03 mins) The windshield is not cracked while the man flies toward it, but a second later, right before he impacts the glass, it is clearly cracked.

Miscellaneous

When Lola arrives at her father's office, there is no sweat on her clothes or face, though she ran a good five minutes or so at full speed.

Crew or equipment visible

When the ambulance crashes through the glass, you can clearly see an explosive charge detonate, shattering the glass.
The reflection of the crew and tripod can be seen when Lola's father enters the car.
When Lola and her father are at the bank reception, the camera light, camera operator and the camera are reflected in the glass.
