Continuity: When Sao Feng's ship fires on Beckett's ship (When Beckett's captain asks if Sparrow has a plan or just makes it up as he goes along). Endeavour, Beckett's ship, loses her mainmast due to battle damage. In reality, as no ship carried a spare mainmast, Endeavour would have had to limp slowly back to port, refit a new mast and rigging, and then return to battle. This would most likely take weeks. Endeavour is spotlessly repaired a few scenes later.

Continuity: In Davy Jones locker when Jack rides the Pearl down the beach and it goes into the water there is no anchoring line, when he says he has a ship there is an anchoring line, and in subsequent shots the line is gone again.

Other: Near the end of the movie, an order is given to fire a cannon shot at the masts of the Pearl and the Dutchman as they have become entangled. We then see a mast being destroyed by the shot but when the ships separate, not one of them has a broken mast.

Continuity: In the scene at the beginning of the film when we Elizabeth holding a knife to the chinese man's throat, the other man whistles to alert them of soldiers on the bridge, if you watch closely in this shot Elizabeth grabs hold of her large hat as she is turning and moving back against the wall yet in the following shot her hand is nowhere to be seen.

Continuity: The position of Bootstrap's knife embedded in the deck rail changes, from the time Will slams it into the wood to when Bootstrap removes it.

Continuity: When Sao Feng punches Jack, the lace on Jack wrist is barely frayed and pretty clean; however in previous shots it is very frayed and filthy.

Continuity: At the mass pirate hanging, the left sock (viewer’s right) of the man who stands beside the boy is up to his knee. When they sing, “Heave ho,” that sock is down, but when they sing, “Never shall we die,” it’s higher up again.

Continuity: As Barbossa, Elizabeth and Jack walk towards Will, Beckett and Jones there is a close-up of the latter’s feet on the sand. In the next shot, the sand around their legs significantly differs.

Continuity: When the Black Pearl crew are captured by Sao Feng, there is a shot of Will and Elizabeth with Will being held back by a metal pointed object round his neck. In the next shot with Will in the background, the metal object is gone.

Continuity: In Singapore, Ragetti looks up through the floor boards and acts like he sees Elizabeth, but when you see his eye through the crack in the floor, it's the brown wooden which he cannot see with (his other eye is blue).

Continuity: When Will asks Elizabeth to marry him, a lock of her hair goes from over her eye in one shot, to behind her ear the next.

Other: After the ship goes over the waterfall, the entire crew is seen crawling from the ocean onto land, completely soaked. However, Mr. Gibbs' beard is completely dry.

Continuity: After the Pearl makes an interesting return to the Locker's shore, Jack walks toward everyone on the beach, leaving a trail in the sand behind him. As Jack speaks to them in one wideshot, his trail in the sand near the long boat disappears (not due to the water).

Continuity: When Captain Vallenueva says, “I still agree with Sao Feng,” and slams the pistol down, things on the table change position in following shots.

Audio problem: In the scene where Davey Jones is playing his organ, the sound is backwards to the way it should be. When he hits the lower notes, the sound emitted is actually *higher* than when he hits the higher notes.

Continuity: When Johnny Depp's sitting next to the goat and it turns its head to face him, he goat's body is turned to the right, but when we see a closeup shot of it its body is now turned to its left.

Continuity: Close to the beginning of the film when Barbossa is explaining to Will about the green flash, look closely at the chinese man's hat, it has two icicles on the front of it, and in one particular shot just after Pintel interrupts Gibbs you can see that one of the icicles has been broken or dropped off, and then in the following shot it has reappeared again.

Continuity: In the beginning of the movie just after the East India Trading Company soldiers have ambushed Sao Feng, Barbossa and the others, Jack the monkey lays a rocket on the side of the bridge, if you watch closely, the rocket moves/rolls to its left, yet just before it flies through the air it's straight again in this shot.

Continuity: Elizabeth has a beauty mark above the corner of her right eyebrow which actually disappears in some of her close-ups. For instance, when she is with Norrington and asks, “Know what? Which side you chose?” and later, when he kisses her. Later, in the scene with her son, the beauty mark is gone in one close-up and then just reappears in the next one, as she glances at her son.

Continuity: When Jack is in Davey Jones' locker, and he is messing around with the rock, there are a few close up shots of his face and there is a bump, probably a pimple, on the left hand side of his face, by his lower lip, and a few shots later it is gone. It disappears without enough time passing for it to have gone away of its own accord.
