Inkheart (2008) More at IMDbPro »

• Factual errors: The Volkswagen Campervan that is used near the beginning of the film has a Zürich number plate, yet the cantonal coat of arms to the right of the number plate is that of the canton of Ticino (red and blue stripe). This is incorrect: The coat of arms should have been a white-blue stripe, which is the coat of arms of Zürich Canton and would correspond correctly to the number plate.
  
  
• Factual errors: A sign at the entrance to Elinor's house reads "Don't even think about entering"; underneath there are translated versions. Despite the novel the movie bases on is of German origin, the German translation on Elinor's sign is wrong - "Denk sogar nicht daran..." instead of "Denk nicht einmal daran...". (In the German dubbed cinema version of this movie, there is a voice-over while the sign is on screen, telling the correctly translated version.)
  
  
• Errors in geography: Mo's departure from Alassio on a Citroen DS has been shot in the neighboring town of Albenga.
  
  

• Miscellaneous: The subtitle at the start of the movie says "Twelve years later". In the Russian version the narrator says (in Russian) "Twenty years later".
  
  
• Plot holes: Mo has been looking for a copy of the book for nine years and never thought of contacting the author until his daughter mentions it.
  
  
• Continuity: In the escape sequence, the metal bars that kept Resa behind appear and disappear in between scenes. In a few scenes, she could've easily gone through the gap between the bars.
