Continuity: When Ellen Brody is talking with the Mayor and Hendricks on the docks, about her husband, her collar goes from under to over her jacket between shots.

Revealing: When the shark attacks the catamaran remains which only Jackie and Sean are on, as the shark hits, one of it’s front top teeth is clearly bent in half. It remains back to intact in all other following shots.

Continuity: The pilot in the rescue helicopter wears no sunglasses as he is about the take off. But when the shark is attacking the copter, sunglasses briefly appear on the pilots face in one shot, then vanish.

Continuity: When the divers find the Orca, one diver goes through a door still latched to the frame, in perfect condition. But seconds later the other diver takes a photo of this diver in front of the same door, which is now hanging off it’s hinges and is damaged.

Continuity: At the beginning of the movie, when the divers find the Orca boat, there is a plate with the word “ORCA”, nailed to the front of the boat. However in the first movie this wasn’t here. Also, the damage done to the Orca is noticeably different.

Continuity: When Brody sits on the beach, he begins to untie his shoelace of his left boot. In the next shot both of his boots are now magically off, and he is now pulling off his left sock.

Continuity: When Eddie is floating the water, after being knocked out of the boat by the shark, in one shot we see his hair is totally soaked and is flat. But in the next shot it is drier and now curlier.

Continuity: When Andy and Mike are standing on the boat, the position of the boat’s green sail changes from shot to shot. The two red stripes on the sail clearly verify this - watch them as they change position and location as well.

Continuity: When Andy and Mike are standing on the boat, adjusting the green sail, between shots the boats on the water behind them completely change.

Visible crew/equipment: When Larry, Ellen Brody, and a group of others are touring some people around the beach, showing them around, they look up to see Chief Brody in the watch tower, looking out for sharks. In the close-up of Ellen looking up at him, the boom mike bobbing around, is clearly reflected in her sunglasses.

Continuity: When Terry is water-skiing, her mum is driving the speedboat. The speedboat has the writing “MS 5713 EB” on both of its sides. The sides of the boat are made up of shiplap boarding. In the first half of the skiing scene when we see the side of the speedboat, the writing is printed on the second board down from the top of the boat. However in the second half of the scene, after Terry has been grabbed by the shark, the writing has moved up onto the top board. The condition of the paint of the actual whole boat changes between a few shots too. Sometimes the green paint is totally fresh and new looking, in others it is faded and looks more worn.

Continuity: When Tina and Eddie stumble upon the huge dead whale on the beach, they are standing upon a large sand dune to the whale’s left. However in the next scene where everyone is gathered around and Dr. Elkins measures the bites in the whale, the sand dune has mysteriously vanished.

Visible crew/equipment: When Brody drives across the deck and then onto the ferry, as he does you can see the large shadow of crewmembers and a camera set up, standing on a high ledge above, cast on Brody’s Amity Police van.

Continuity: When Hendricks pulls the thick power line out of the water, the position of the seaweed and plant life hanging from the line changes and decreases depending on the shot. Also, the way in which the white claws are inserted into the power line change too.

Continuity: When a group of teenagers are aboard a boat, hauling the boy back and forth on the bungee swing, between shots a bunch of boats and catamarans which are drifting on the water behind them, suddenly vanish.

Continuity: When a group of teenagers are aboard a boat, hauling the boy back and forth on the bungee swing, between shots the positions/locations of the teenagers changes.

Factual error: The "Cable Junction" in the movie is a transformer junction station built on a rock pile however when you look at it there is no algae or barnacles anywhere on the rocks. This is impossible because algae and barnacles thrive on rocks in sea water.

Revealing: When the shark attacks the sailboats with only Jackie and Sean aboard at the end, you can see that it is a totally different mechanical shark right down to the bad paint job.

Continuity: Chief Brody and his raft disappear from under the shark when it catches fire. Understandable, as they were burning the model shark for real, but still poorly edited.

Continuity: When the two guys are trying to pull Mike back onto their boat, in the first shot they are pulling the front of his jacket. Then when the shot changes, they are pulling him up by the back of his jacket.
