Continuity mistake: When Venom delivers the mail to Eddie while making breakfast, the letters are angled differently in the various shots, in Venom's cute little pseudo-hand first, between Tom Hardy's big paws after. (00:23:40)

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the "Let's Call The Whole Thing Off" scene, Eddie already poured the orange juice and put it down before Venom messes with the radio and fridge. We see then symbiote's tentacle pass in front of Eddie's hand, which is suspended in mid-air still pouring. Then we cut back to the original angle and Hardy is about to drink from the glass, the orange juice carton well set on the table. (00:23:05)

Continuity mistake: Venom 'saves' a woman that is being mugged; when they hold the evildoer upside down plotting to eat him, the woman witnesses the scene wide-eyed. Her necklace is in a different position between the background feature and the close-up on her. (00:16:40)

Revealing mistake: If you look at the drawing in front of Eddie when he glances down at it after Venom typed in the name of the beach, it's only a crude draft of the one in close-up (it's missing the wave lines below the cliff outline, for instance). (00:11:20)

Other mistake: At the beginning of the movie, Shriek reads an article mentioning that Cletus' story is "coming to an end", and Eddie is credited with uncovering "what the FBI and police could not " That doesn't fit with Eddie supposedly down on his luck and badly needing a scoop; and in fact the tagline is the same that will appear in printed and audio news later when Eddie does rise to fame again by discovering the bodies. Also, the article talks about Eddie Brock, but somehow is WRITTEN BY Eddie Brock.

Continuity mistake: In the first "Present day" scene, the Ravencroft wardens enter Shriek's cell to feed her. She is lying on one side in the establishing dolly, and she's just lying on her back in the next shot. (00:04:10)

Continuity mistake: When Young Shriek blows Young Detective Mulligan's eardrum (just one for some reason), he grabs his own ear clutching his fingers around it. In the next shot his hand is turned around in a different way. (00:02:45)

Stupidity: Shriek is being taken to a new facility for superbeings, after a medical exam established that her sonic powers that she has been using since she was a kid are too strong to keep her at the correction house. So "naturally" for this transport she is not gagged, sedated, not even bound, and there's just one guy with her, not even wearing earplugs. It couldn't possibly be any more comically unsafe.
