Mistake Continuity: In the bell tower, when the slimy thing falls on Eddie, he covers himself with both hands. In the close-up his hands are down and raises just one of them.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Peter asks Harry to help rescue M. J. (from Venom and Sandman), a sitting chair appears to the left of the painting of Harry's father in the last shot of Harry. There was no chair in the other shots of this scene. The sitting chair was by that painting for all of the movie except those few shots.

Mistake Continuity: When the steel beam is sweeping the floor underneath the destroyed office, the model in pink disappears from the wide angle.

Mistake Continuity: When the steel beam destroys the office, it breaks a window and a pillar. From the outside, the pillar is intact.

Mistake Continuity: During the battle among Venom, Sandman and Spider-Man, we see a news reporter with an English accent. She is narrating the fight, standing to the immediate right of her cameraman, who is pointing his camera skyward, at the fight. The reporter begins voicing her concern over the outcome. There is a cut to a TV showing the news report, where we see her finish her thought. Except we see a head-shot of her, and not the shot of the battle we should be seeing, considering the positioning of the camera.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter is thrown against a brick wall, he produces a big hole around his left shoulder. In the close-up the hole is smaller.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter lands on the cab, MJ has her fringe all messed up and says "Peter, we'll both die". angle on Spidey, and when back to MJ she's perfectly combed and neat looking.

Mistake Continuity: Down in the sewer, the wad of dollar bills moves away from the puddle between the close and wide angles.

Mistake Audio problem: When the cop lands on the windshield of the red car, the driver starts to shout but her mouth doesn't move. If the cry had come from someone outside, the sound would have sounded muffled.

Mistake Continuity: When Jameson kicks out one of his employees from his office for coming up with another stupid idea, Brock sneaks in through the door into his office, but if you look at the black guy in the office he is holding a piece of paper in his right hand and his other hand is in his pocket, yet in the following shot from inside the office, the black guy is now holding the piece of paper with both hands.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where MJ and Peter are talking in Peter's apartment about her review of her performance, in the first shot we can see all of MJ's hair is at the back, but in the following shot a huge portion of her hair is now over her right shoulder, this happens between shots and we don't see her flick it over her shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: Before the cop climbs on the truck, he shields himself on the truck's cabin and you can easily notice the tarp is perfectly tied by a dozen strings. When he climbs up, all the knots magically untie and he manages to pull the tarp away. His buddy couldn't have done it because he always appears with the gun in his hand, covering him.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter and Gwen finish dancing, a waitress passes by them. Less than half a second later, from a new angle, she's repeating the movement. And a frame after that, from a third new angle, she disappears from screen as if she hadn't started walking by.

Mistake Continuity: Peter opens his shirt wide to see his evil Spidey suit underneath. When the angle changes, a frame later to a close-up of his neck and face, his shirt is closed.

Mistake Continuity: There are several scenes in the film where Peter's 'Spider-Man' costume can be seen sticking out from the top of his shirt, both the 'normal' red/blue version and the black symbiote version. The spider chest-emblem is visible in each of these scenes, but the emblem is smaller and much farther up the front of the costume, almost near his neck. Invariably, whenever he switches into full 'Spider-Man' costume, the emblem has reverted to its original much-larger size and is much farther down the front of his chest, level with his pecs.

Mistake Continuity: The Bank truck full stops away from a zebra crossing, but the close shot shows it on top of it.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter first goes to see Aunt May and tells her he's going to ask her to marry him, Aunt May in the first shot goes to hug Peter on his left shoulder, it cuts away and in the following shot she has hugged Peter on his right shoulder so that the camera can see Peter's face.

Mistake Continuity: In the middle of the film when Ursula tells Peter that MJ called back, when she first enters Peter's apartment he is sitting at the computer, look closely here, there is no framed picture of MJ standing against the computer, yet in the following shot a framed picture of MJ has appeared standing up against the computer.

Mistake Continuity: When the model is about to fall, there's a view of the street and the huge traffic jam and chaos from before has disappeared. The cars are driving normally and there's no debris on the asphalt.

Mistake Continuity: During the sexy Peter scene, three men are in the news stand: An old man, a black man and a guy with a hat. This last one is replaced by a woman in the close-up angle.
