Continuity mistake: From the truck, Sandman boosts some cars away. One of them goes zooming straight against a corner on the left side of the street. When the angle changes, not only has the car changed positions to the center of the street, but a man and a car appear perfectly intact and calmed on the same spot where the car was before.

Continuity mistake: When Peter visits Harry at the hospital, Harry says: "The doctor says I had an accident". then he turns his head to the right, facing upwards. In the immediate angle he is still facing left.

Continuity mistake: When Sandman is down in the sewer, the stack of dollar bills on the right has no plastic wrap around. When the angle changes its green colour has faded and you can notice plastic securing the wads.

Sacha

Continuity mistake: During the crane incident scene when Gwen is holding onto the telephone you can see her sliding down the damaged office floor with her legs almost over the edge, yet in the following shot when the phone's cord snaps, she is a lot further up the office floor and slides down again to the edge.

Continuity mistake: In the scene that Harry yells to Bernard (his butler) to get food because they are having a guest, the first shot of Bernard shows a small table with a vase of white flowers on it. In subsequent shots of the butler within this scene, the flowers are no longer on the table.

Revealing mistake: When Spidey is placing the tubes around Venom, his face is obvious CGI except for some shots of him shouting. Here, a real face (twice as big as it should) has been pasted on the CGI body, looking quite ridiculous.

Continuity mistake: Before MJ throws the chunk of concrete at Venom, she has her arms raised holding the chunk in the air. In the close-up of Venom's face MJ can be seen in the background, resting calmly in the cab. Then, when back to a close-up of her, she is holding the chunk as before.
