Revealing mistake: When the man's car swerves out of control after MAC lands on his windshield, a pile-up occurs. In this scene, it can be seen that the drivers are either absent, or dummies. (00:11:00)
Visible crew/equipment: When Eric's brother says that the traffic jam was caused by a drunken alien, the shadow of the moving camera is visible on the outside of the van.
Continuity mistake: When Mac's on the windshield and the car starts to dodge cars, one shot from inside the car shows the alien has disappeared.
Michael Cruise: You know what I feel like?
Eric Cruise: A Big Mac?
Michael Cruise: The man's psychic.
Trivia: Comedian Paul Rudd had a running gag for many years where, whenever he'd appear on Conan O'Brien's late-night talk show, he'd set up a clip for a film he was promoting... and then instead show the infamous clip from "Mac and Me" in which Eric falls over a cliff in his wheelchair, and the alien Mac pops up in the foreground. The gag ended up going on for 17 years.
