Continuity
When Walter is riding the bicycle on the Iceland country road, the white line in the middle of the road changes between shots from a double line to a single broken line to a single continuous line.

Revealing Mistakes
When Walter is floating in the water, his shoulders are well out of the water because he's standing on a hidden underwater platform. In real life, he'd be up to his neck and have trouble keeping his head above water.
