The original cut of the movie made it clear that the wives had been replaced by robots. After test audiences hated this revelation, Frank Oz decided to do re shoots to make the wives simply humans with microchips in their brains. With the elimination of a sequence featuring an out-of-control Bette Midler robot and other scenes, this created numerous plot holes and inconsistencies. In a 2007 interview, Frank Oz admitted that the decisions he made were wrong and the film tanked because he "didn't follow his instincts". See more...

Directed by Frank Oz, starring Bette Midler, Christopher Walken, Glenn Close, Matthew Broderick, Nicole Kidman (add more)
Continuity: When at the Men's Association, Mike Wellington raises a glass and toasts Stepford. He does this with his left hand. When the shot changes to show all the men, he is still doing it with his left hand. But when the shot changes back to Mike, the glass is now in his right hand, with no time between shots to change hands.
Continuity: It's raining when Joanna goes to the Men's Association to find her husband and children. When she walks in the door her hair is wet but her clothes are completely dry.
Visible crew/equipment: When Walter is driving down the highway with his family in tow, right after he explains to his kids why they're moving, he looks over at Joe with her head slumped against the window, and the reflection of some filming equipment (possibly the camera) is seen on the window at the bottom-right corner of the screen.
Continuity: At the foot of the staircase in Sarah's house, Joanna and Roger change positions relative to each other a few times.
Continuity: When Bobbi, Roger, and Jo break into Sarah's house, just as they hear the noises upstairs Roger's arms change from at his sides to crossed.
Audio problem: When Joanna goes to The Simply Stepford Day Spa, Clair begins her Clairobics, and says, "Come on Joanna." Behind Joanna, Clair's reflection shows her telling everyone to do the "spin cycle" but she isn't heard. Then in the shot facing Clair, she again tells them to do the spin cycle.
