Mistake Visible crew/equipment: Upon arrival at Hoover Dam, just as Sam exits the SUV the reflection of the camera/crane is visible on the vehicle's black surface, at the left, just before it tracks backwards into an overhead shot.

Mistake Continuity: Aboard Air Force One, when Frenzy kills the first two Secret Service agents, the second agent falls back into the hallway, but his feet are still in the room over the bottom raised lip of the doorway. When the third agent fires on Frenzy, the legs of that second agent are lying flat on the room's floor, right beside the first agent that was hit. Note that the agent's legs are also beside the shelving unit, which is a good distance from the door.

Mistake Continuity: When Mikaela looks under the hood and fiddles with Bumblebee's distributor cap, her long hair is either behind her shoulders or in front, depending on the angle of the shot.

Mistake Continuity: At the park, when Sam decides to drive Mikaela home, Miles is in the car with his right arm (viewer's left) up behind his head, but in his close-ups his arm is down.

Mistake Continuity: In class for his genealogy report, when Sam begins to dump his great-great-grandfather's belongings onto the desk, while the backpack is upside-down it turns around from front to back, between the wideshot and next close-up.

Mistake Continuity: When Sam's parents begin knocking on his bedroom door, Prime says, "Ratchet, point the light," and nothing is on the bathroom windowsill, but when Ron is searches Sam's bathroom with the flashlight there are two small overturned flower pots lying on that windowsill. The flower pots are gone again when Ironhide asks, "The parents are very irritating, can I take them out?

Mistake Continuity: Just as Mikaela comes to the rescue with the reciprocating saw, when she holds the saw up in front of her face just before she starts to hack away at Frenzy, the saw's blade clamp assembly is about 8-9 inches. After Sam kicks Frenzy, the saw on Mikaela's shoulder has a different configuration with a shorter blade clamp assembly unit. The blade differs as well.

Mistake Continuity: When Scorponok's tail is being examined aboard the transport plane, as it curls itself to strike, Epps jumps back with his hands up near his head, but next shot Epps's hand is positioned on the table for the dramatic near miss.

Mistake Continuity: When Sam and Mikaela are in the SUV with Simmons, the look of the backseat of the vehicle, between the two teenagers, changes when Prime appears, and provides them with his version of a sun-roof.

Mistake Continuity: After Sam takes off running with the All Spark, heading for the building, Prime is shown driving down the street towards a collection of garbage bins. In the next shot, before Prime hits them, all the garbage bins are set up very differently.

Mistake Continuity: Before Barricade interrogates Sam, the Decepticon throws Sam on the windshield of a car, and a wheel falls off the car's roof, but then reappears back on the roof in a following shot.

Mistake Continuity: While standing in front of a frozen Megatron, after Banacheck explains that Sam's great-great-grandfather made one of the greatest discoveries, Sam and Mikaela are shoulder to shoulder, but in the next back shot they are 4-5 feet apart. They're beside each other again in following shots.

Mistake Continuity: The rather large hole at the back of Sam's long and short-sleeved tee shirts, that appears after Barricade interrogates him and he knocks Mikaela off her moped, changes size, position etc. There are other small rips around that hole that appear, disappear and change as well.

Mistake Continuity: When Mikaela has Bumblebee at the back of Mike's Towing truck, she drives down an alleyway, and when she stops the truck in the close-up there is a trashcan and other debris between the front two tires, which vanish in the wideshot.

Mistake Continuity: When Agent Simmons takes Mikaela and Sam into custody, the headrests in the SUV vanish when Prime shows up. The driver's headrest is visible just after they enter the car. When Sam says, "My car had been stolen, from me, from my home," and when Simmons asks, "What do you kids know about aliens?" the headrest behind Sam is visible, among other moments.

Mistake Continuity: When Sam kicks Frenzy like a football in the wideshot, the right side of his boxers are torn straight up the leg, but are intact thereafter.

Mistake Continuity: When boxer wearing Sam begins to run away from Frenzy, in the shot facing his legs from behind he is wearing blue socks with black stripes, but then it changes to blue socks with white stripes.

Mistake Continuity: When Frenzy is attacking boxer wearing Sam at the fence, Sam's right sleeve at the elbow gets torn while fighting the little lunatic. That large hole disappears when Mikaela arrives with the DeWalt Reciprocating Saw.

Mistake Continuity: When Sam, who is wearing boxers, is running from away Frenzy there is a large tear on his left sleeve, at the elbow. When Sam reaches the fence Frenzy attacks him, and as Sam covers his head with his arms we see the tear is gone from his left sleeve (viewer's right).

Mistake Continuity: When Barricade interrogates Sam about the glasses, the cracks on the shattered glass windshield under Sam disappear, reappear and change characteristics between the interior (inside the car), overhead and close-up shots.
