Mistake Continuity: When Klatu goes to see the professor, there are several white notes tacked around the chalk board. In later shots some of the notes are gone.

Mistake Revealing: When the spaceship is going to take-off, every scientists are trying to escape, but there's a man wearing a light colored suit and hat who seems more interested in pushing the chairs everywhere than escaping. He even pushes a chair in another row. The director obviously told the actors to push some chairs to create more excitement in the scene, but he seems to take that too seriously.

Mistake Continuity: In the newspaper headlined 'Step up Hunt for Spaceman' the photo on the right shows Klatu and Gort on the hull of the ship. This shot is a still from the end of the film.

Mistake Continuity: When the power goes out there is a scene where it shows all the cars not being able to work, although in the background there is a movie marquee with the lights on.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In a few scenes the stitches holding together the front and back halves of Gort's "metal" body can be seen.
