The Magnificent Seven

Continuity mistake: When the church bell is rehung and struck, it goes from shoulder height to well above head height, then back to shoulder height in subsequent shots. (01:28:15)

Phixius

Continuity mistake: While Bogue shots the guy outside the church the sun changes between shots.

Continuity mistake: The number of men killed in the initial gun fight is more than the 22 men Bogue says worked for him.

Continuity mistake: Chisholm says Powder Dan kills the wife of the tenant farmer. Then, after he kills Powder Dan, he tells the town sheriff to send half the reward to the tenant farmer's widow, who he previously said Powder Dan took advantage of and killed.

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the movie when Bogue's men are first charging into Rose Creek, we see white tents camped on the outskirts of town in the field. The next wide shot from a distance there are no white tents, then the next shot there are. In the final scenes of the movie as the camera pans over the town and into the field, there are no white tents visible.

Factual error: The character Red Harvest is a Comanche. He is sporting a Mohawk haircut. This hair style was not in use by the Comanche tribe, but used by the Iroquois and Mohawks.
