Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: When everyone goes to town Greg stays behind to babysit. Just before he goes to check on a crying LJ be pauses outside the door and the shot shows a close up of a pair of running shoes that are different than the ones Greg is wearing during the remaining scenes. In the shot by the door, the shoes are light grey and white with a metal plate on the side, however, in the rest of the scenes he has on navy and white running shoes. (01:01:50 - 01:03:00)

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: When LJ speaks his first word, everyone runs into Roz's office where his crib is. They show it right inside of the door. Jack then blows up at Greg when he learns it is a curse word and calls an immediate family conference. Roz, Bernie and Greg leave the room. When they show the family conference, Little Jack and the crib are now gone. (01:10:55 - 01:12:05)

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: The pen photos that Jack takes of Jorge do not match the ones shown on the upload screen when he sends them to the CIA, inside of the motor home. When he actually takes the pictures, he does them in rapid succession. Jorge is right in front of of the RV about a foot away and all you can see in the background is the RV since he is standing so close to it. On the uploaded photos, Jorge is at least 5-10 feet away from the RV, up on the sidewalk. He is also now at the end of the RV and the photos show the house across the street in the background.

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: When Bernie is lying in front of the bus to protest Jack leaving, in the first shot his head is directly aligned with the wheel well and his feet are under the license plate. When they show Bernie getting up, he is way out to the right of the bus by a couple of feet. (01:32:11 - 01:32:36)

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: After the Byrnes meet the Fockers and retreat back to their motor home, Dina, standing in front of Little Jack says "they seem like very nice people." Little Jack has his laptop all the way down by his feet. Jack then runs over when he thinks LJ has spoken his first word and you now see the computer up by his chest and some sort of small equipment appears on the seat next to LJ. It looks like maybe a cellphone or seat belt buckle. (00:34:07 - 00:34:17)

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: As they are playing football, when Bernie tackles Jack, you see Jack flying and landing in front of the gate. The left flag/marker is also in front of two trees. After they show everyone running over to Jack on the ground, he is lying way far left of his original position. Now the fence is behind him, the gate is gone, and the left flag is no longer in front of the trees. (00:54:48 - 00:54:56)

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: As they are all outside drinking Tom Collins', the 2 cherries in Greg's drink are at the bottom, then when he leans in to answer Jack's question about his 'sister', the cherries are now at the top of his glass. The cherries actually switch back and forth in several shots. (00:32:15 - 00:32:30)

Meet the Fockers (2004)

Continuity mistake: When Greg goes into his mom's office to quickly put away all the sex toys and objects before the Byrnes come in, on the dresser, to the left of the door, is a statue and a shell. In the next shot, after Greg has shoved the statue behind the desk, the shell has now moved from the left to the right. There is no time for this as it is shot as a "continuous" sequence. (00:27:13 - 00:27:19)
