Continuity mistake: When Jake and the twins are dancing the girls' hair is together in the space between their heads. Jake looks through the space and it is suddenly clear (the hair looks pulled back). (01:10:00)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: After the twins are announced as prom queens it shows a close-up of Priscilla, who stands at the front of the crowd (closest to the stage). When the twins walk up the stairs, Priscilla is no longer there. (01:09:15)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: At the end of the song when they all pose with their hands in the air, some of them have different positions (head tilted a different way, different leg forward, etc.) when the camera does the panning shot from above. (01:04:35)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: During the football game, Jake is wearing a Nike shoe (black with a swoosh). After the game when talking with Janey it's got a cross-hatched design. (00:57:40 - 00:59:25)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jake takes his first snap, you can see on his left sleeve a Wilson "W". However, the shot changes once the ball is snapped and the Wilson logo is no longer there (it looks like they might have painted blue over it). Nice product placement? (00:57:35)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: When Mt. T is telling Jake he likes to whip boys in the shower Jake puts his hand up and says "Whoa". It cuts and Jake no longer has his hand up. (00:56:20)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: During the football game against the North Compton Wildcats, Reggie Ray gets all woozy. If you look at the scoreboard in this shot it says there is 1:15 left in the 4th quarter. After the trainer talks to the coach the board says 1:20 left in the 3rd quarter. (00:53:35 - 00:54:25)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the football game against the North Compton Wildcats, the team runs out on the field. It cuts to a scene of Jake waving at Janey and in the background the team is going through some drills. It then cuts to another shot of the team running onto the field. (00:51:25)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jake asks Janey to the prom, Ricky puts his fist to his mouth after she says she will go with Jake. It cuts to a shot where he has nothing in front of his mouth. (00:51:10)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jake walks into the cafeteria and Austin makes fun of him ("he has a thing for butt ugly girls") there are a stack of wrapped sandwiches on sliced bread in front of the fat guy. A moment later, they are unwrapped sandwiches on hoagie buns. (00:49:20)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: At the end of Jake singing "Janey's got a gun," he has the microphone angled away from the microphone stand. The shot changes to the guards giving Janey a taser. When it comes back to Jake, the microphone is angled back toward the microphone stand. (00:32:55)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Jake sings "Janey's got a gun," the people in the crowd behind her scatter. One girl (in a tan coat) is carrying her painting. In the close-up shot the painting has fallen from one of the clips holding it, but in the wide-angle shot the painting is on securely. There is also a girl in blue jeans and a blue sweater and purple shirt sitting to Janey's right. She runs past Janey off the screen. In the next shot (a wide angle) the girl is seen again running behind Janey. Just watching it I think the same could be said about the other people in the class as well. (00:32:40)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: When Jake goes to ask his sister for a favor, she takes off her robe and hops on the bed, spinning clockwise. In the next shot she is in mid-air, but there is no twist to it - she hops onto the bed straight. (00:30:30)

The Recruit (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Layla is trying to get away from Clayton in the car chase, she goes to pass a blue car behind a white truck. It cuts to a shot from inside her car and the white truck is there, but no blue car. Another car is coming the other direction and she has to yank the wheel. She should have been creamed by the blue car, but wasn't because it disappeared. (01:32:10)

The Recruit (2003)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Layla passes the note to Zack, he has a gray shirt on which is not tucked into his pants. Later, when Clayton is following him the gray shirt cannot be seen. (01:22:20 - 01:23:10)

The Recruit (2003)

Continuity mistake: When Clayton is hiding behind the SUV a shot from behind shows him peeking his head out to look at Layla. It cuts to a shot from the front where most of his torso is out from behind the SUV. Then another cut to behind shows only his head out again. (01:21:05)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: When Janey is painting she gets paint on her blue shirt. When the guys are picking a candidate and she comes up the stairs there is no paint on her shirt. (00:10:30 - 00:14:10)

Joel Gordon

Continuity mistake: When Janey is called to the Principal's office she is covered with paint (on her face, neck, etc.). When she shows up she has no paint on her. She could have washed it off, but it still would have left a stain. (00:10:45 - 00:11:30)
