Mistakes

As David and the ship are leaving the NASA hanger, the straps that are holding the ship down start to break. From the shot outside the ship, you can plainly see the straps hanging on the front off the ship, but from inside the ship looking out the front "viewscreen" you see a clear picture, with no straps obstructing the view.

Add actor/director information

Genres: Family, Adventure, Sci-fi

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry When David stops at the gas station to call his family, he puts several coins into the pay phone. Yet when his brother answers, an operator asks if he will accept charges for a collect call. [At the GAS station he puts one coin in the phone then dials 0 to speak to the operator to make the reverse charge call. ]
Entry In most of the scenes with the ship's door, it blends in with the rest of the hull when it is closed. But when the ship descends at the Freeman's new house near the end of the movie, the closed door's outline is plainly visible. [That's because the door is open. Look closely, and you will see that the door has been opened as it is landing.]
Entry When David asks Max to take them where "they can't find us" Max diverts into the sea; upon impact David launches back into his seat. When you hit something you normally head towards the impact. [David wasn't 'launching' back into his seat due to the collision. He was recoiling in fright as they were heading straight into the sea.]
Entry In the scene where the boy is eating a candy bar in the shuttle, one minute there are bites in the chocolate bar, in the next it's intact. [He never actually takes a bite out of the candy bar.]
Entry When Farraday questions David about how the alien craft is powered, a computer screen in the background begins scrolling down the alien text before Farraday has finished his question. [This "mistake" has already been addressed in the "corrected entry" section. The computer is super intelligent and has already anticipated the question.]
Entry When Farraday questions David about how the craft is powered, the computer in the background spills the alien text before Farraday has finished his question. [Not necessarily a mistake - the ship is extremely intelligent (it can control David's mind), it might have anticipated what Farraday was going to ask.]
