Mistake Factual error: The baby is expanded to approximately fifty times his height, width and girth but retains his orginal mass. This means he will have the same volume as one hundred and twenty five thousand babies of his original size, but will weigh the same as before he was enlarged! That child is going to weigh much less than the volume of air he displaces. He's going to float away.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: Stage light is reflected on a glass door when the family chases the giant baby inside the house.

Mistake Continuity: When the (green-screened) giant baby breaks a part of the car and Nick picks it up, though it's similar, it's not exactly the same one.

Mistake Continuity: When Adam breaks Nick's guitar he leaves it next to the loudspeaker. In the next angle it's meters away.

Mistake Continuity: The yellow rope around Mandy's chest moves closer or further to the neck between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Mandy falls inside the Porsche, the Indian toy is facing an 8 o'clock direction, a second later it's facing a 6 o'clock one.

Mistake Continuity: When Nick and his dad are on the other side of the couch, hiding from giant Adam, the cushion keeps changing positions between angles.

Mistake Continuity: Whe Nick watches Mandy in the water park, the stuff on the trolley changes positions between shots in less than a second.

Mistake Continuity: During the scene where Nick unties Mandy, the TV in front of the kid swaps from being normal size to really tiny.

Mistake Continuity: Before the microwave waves hit the baby, the yellow bowl on his table keeps changing positions all the time.

Mistake Continuity: When the mother and daughter are about to get inside the cab, two joggers pass by in the background. There's a shot of the father and son chatting for a long while, and when the angle goes back to the women, the joggers are on the same spot as before, instead of several meters away.

Mistake Continuity: Nick spills milk all over Mandy's t-shirt, but in the next angle it's spotless.

Mistake Continuity: When Nick's mom faints, she is laid on the couch. Depending on the angle her head is either facing the right or the left side.

Mistake Continuity: When Wayne jumps on giant Adam and falls down his pants, when he lands on the floor Adam's shoes are clean but from the very next shot they are really dirty.

Mistake Continuity: When Adam is throwing toys, the chair to the left of the screen keeps changing positions all the time.

Mistake Continuity: Nick asks his mom is he looks like a nerd and combs his fringe. Immediately after, a different angle shows it messed.

Mistake Continuity: In Las Vegas, when the baby leaves the car its position keeps changing between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Nick meets Mandy, the guy by her right has a towel on his shoulder which keeps swapping from thick to thin between shots.
