Continuity: When "Pink Slip" are singing "Ultimate" right at the end, you can see a small group of girls clumped together behind Anna and her girlfriends, and in the next shot they are completely gone. It's impossible for them to have moved entirely out of eyesight in those few seconds they are off camera.

Continuity: At the beginning of the movie, Ryan's hair is short. In the scene where he, Anna and Tess are talking about why Anna was riding on the back of Jake's motorcycle, his hair is several inches longer. At the wedding rehearsal his hair is short again, the same length it was at the beginning of the film.

Other: When Anna and Tess are getting dressed for the wedding rehearsal, Anna (Tess) makes Tess (Anna) take out the earring from her ear, that she got pierced hours before. When she does this there is no sign of pain, redness, or blood that would occur after pulling out a fresh piercing.

Audio problem: When the band Pink Slip is performing their song at The House of Blues, near the beginning of the song, Anna's two band mates are looking at her and wondering why she isn't playing. Maddie (the lead singer) is looking at Anna and singing, but Peg (the other guitar player) is looking at Anna and not singing. However, in the song, you can hear someone singing a harmony note opposite the main melody. How could that happen if Peg wasn't singing?

Continuity: Anna's friend, the lead singer in the House of Blues performance, had not very much blush on, but an overload of eyeshadow on at the rehearsal, but when she got to the House of Blues she had an overload of both. When they were actually playing and after, the blush was cut back on again.

Revealing: When Stacy Hinkhouse pulls the shirt over Anna/Tess, put it in slow motion and at one point you can see it is a stunt double and not Lindsay Lohan.

Continuity: After Anna gets out of her second detention, when the things fall out of her bag, first you can see that the bag is still on her shoulder but her bag just turned upside down. In the next shot when you see all the things on the ground, you can see the bag touching the ground. When the shot goes back to Anna you can see the bag is on her shoulder again and upside down again.
