Hairspray picture

Revealing mistake: Right after "Without Love", we see Edna answering the phone. If you've seen the movie as many times as I have, you'll see that this is a recycled shot from earlier when Mr. Pinky calls.

28 Weeks Later picture

Revealing mistake: During the scene where the military loses control of London, and their snipers are told "all targets are free", you can see heavy padding beneath Infected/civilian victims' shirts, etc, as they're shot. Presumably it's to stop them injuring themselves when they fall over, or to hold apparatus for the blood effects, but it's too bulky to be part of the characters' clothing.

The Condemned picture

Revealing mistake: When Conrad throws the Russian over the cliff, as the Russian explodes, you can see that poor CGI actually makes him transparent.

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer picture

Revealing mistake: At the end, there is a group of people with their backs to the camera, facing & waving to the Fantastic 4. As the F4 fly towards the camera and out of the shot, the crowd turns to continue waving to them. One small boy in white remains facing the wrong way, still waving, until another child grabs the back of his clothes & turns him to face the right way.

Suggested correction: Not necessarily a mistake. Little kids can have a hard time keeping track of/focusing on things. I know little kids that have a hard time looking in the direction of the camera when their picture is being taken.

There's a difference between not looking at a camera when you don't care about having your picture taken and being able to follow superheroes that pass you, especially if you're waving at them. The reason it's a revealing mistake is because everyone involved had to pretend superheroes were passing them and the kid didn't know when to turn.

Daddy Day Camp picture

Revealing mistake: In the opening scene, the little girl pulls the cake over to her with only a few fingers which is near impossible. When the camera angle shifts and she lets go of the cake, it still wiggles as if she's pulling on it, showing that it's being controlled from the other side, most likely by an off-camera crew member. (00:01:25)

Saw IV picture

Revealing mistake: When Art is hitting the Trevor (the blinded man) character with the hammer/hatchet in the beginning, if you look closely, you can see blood coming from Trevor's head, yet there is no wound or cut. The blood is actually coming from the prop that is hitting him in the head. (00:09:00)

Superbad picture

Revealing mistake: Seth is seen holding the alcohol-filled detergent containers, waving his arms and saying to Evan, "You bailed on me!" If the containers were truly full, or even half full, they would be too heavy for him to move up and down so easily. They were obviously empty.

Urban Justice picture

Revealing mistake: There are 4 different vehicles in the movie that have the same license plate number (2PCE275). The first is on a white car owned by the gang member that shoots Max. Then you see the same plate number on the pickup truck of the skinheads that are harrassing Gary. Then you see the same plate on Steven Seagal's car as he drives away from saving Gary from the skinheads (incidentally, the front plate on his car is different than the back plate). The last time you see the same plate is on a Lexus driven by the guy in the all white suit who is going to buy the cocaine.

Revealing mistake: Rachel slides off her panties while trying to seduce Harlan, and when she offers to let him "touch it", she parts her legs slightly and it can be seen that she's wearing another pair of panties.
