details

• Continuity: At various times throughout the movie, Gotham City Police Department is abbreviated as both GCPD and GPD on squad cars, uniforms, etc.
  
  
• Revealing mistakes: An Illinois license plate is clearly visibly on Bruce Wayne's Lamborghini, even though they are in the fictional Gotham City.
  
  
• Factual errors: Bruce Wayne reconstructs the bullet to find a finger print of the finger that was used to insert the bullet into the clip. However, this is not possible because the bullet is covered by the shell when loaded into a clip.
  
  

• Factual errors: When Harvey Dent hangs up on Gordon after telling him about his family, the phone makes the distance 'hang up' dial tone. Cell phones do not have these, nor do land lines make such dial tones that quickly after a terminated call.
  
  
• Continuity: The cooling ducts on the side of Bruce Wayne's Lamborghini Murciélago are closed at the beginning of the scene and are open immediately following a cut. They are motorized but take time to open and close.
  
  
• Continuity: In one of the first scenes with Det. Ramirez, you see her holding a cup of coffee. In between takes she switches between holding the cup with two hands, then only one hand and finally with two hands again. The cuts in the scene are immediate and linear, so she could not have changed how she holds the cup in between cuts.
  
  

• Continuity: SPOILER: Two-Face cocks his gun twice in the warehouse with Gordon and his family. Once when he first threatens him then again when he puts the gun to Gordon's wife.
  
  
• Continuity: SPOILER: When Two-Face is threatening to kill Gordon's son, he uses his left hand to flip the coin. Between flips, in a close up of the kids face, Two-Face is stroking the boy's hair with his left hand, no coin in sight.
