Other: There are several shots of monitors which show the time and date. Right before the coffee shop explodes, the date is said to be Nov. 16, 2027, but at the farm house when Luke is playing the newscast, the date is April 2, 2027. Furthermore, when the alarm sounds at Jasper's house, the date is now Dec. 6, 2027.

Trivia
When Theo goes to visit his cousin at his apartment at Battersea Power Station, an inflatable pig can be seen flying between the smokestacks, a recreation of and reference to the cover of the Pink Floyd album "Animals," whose vision of society the film mirrors. See more...
Children of Men (2006) - 5 mistakes
Continuity: During the chase scene, where the people on motorcycles are pursuing the car, they shoot Julian Moore's character. The first shot shows a view from the inside of the car, and the windshield covered in blood. However, when they come back to that shot (after they show her dead), the windshield is clear of blood.
Continuity: As Theo is sitting down at his desk, the camera comes up from behind the woman across from him, who has small knick knacks and figurines covering her desk. The shot zooms in on Theo and then switches to the crying woman. When the shot changes, notice the "fat-baby" figurine suddenly switches with two-smaller animal figurines. It's hard to tell what they are, but it's easy to see they've been switched with the baby.
Revealing: The infant baby was computer animated in every scene in which the face appeared. Even the feet were obviously touched up by computer in the hallway scene. The lighting isn't quite right, the skin texture isn't quite right, and the child's face is just too animated.
Revealing: The ping-pong ball that Theo and Julian pass between their mouths is lit inconsistently with the lighting in the car. It also moves independently of the confines of the actors' mouths. The ball was digitally added after filming this scene.
