KeyZOid

Other mistake: Oak's last name is Scoggins, but the newspaper article about the fatal accident that his mother was reading on her laptop had "Skogens" in the headline. (00:15:29 - 01:15:24)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The toaster oven's timer rang and Oak opened the door and picked up two pieces of toast with his bare hands without showing the slightest hint that the toast or the toaster oven was hot. (The toast actually looked cold and hard). (00:11:15)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: In the angled side view of Tom sitting in his truck behind Rachel's Volvo at the gas station, a light-colored car appears from the rear of Tom's truck and can be seen going past Tom's side mirror. A car this close at the angle it was traveling would most likely be headed straight toward and smash into the white building across the street from the gas station. The car should be running parallel to Tom's truck; it is too far away from the intersection to go onto that crossroad. (00:31:24)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The Burglar (while tied to a chair and talking about "My Darling Clementine") says, "Apex of Ford's art, you feel me?" Vikar (James Franco) responds, "I feel you." The movie starts in 1969, but rapper E-40 (Earl Tyrone Stevens, Sr.) - "slang master" - supposedly created the expression "you feel me" in the early 1990s. (00:19:53)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Mr. Butler is in Lucas' bedroom, finds a small (4"?) camera, and plays the part where Lucas is setting it up in the classroom to (hopefully) film Becca putting moves on Mr. Butler. Mr. Ward (Lucas' father) is standing in the doorway several feet away and cannot possibly see what is on the small screen, but asks if the girl on the tape is the one who died. (01:07:25)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Mara uses a light underhand toss to throw a bottle (fifth) of alcohol maybe 10-15' to Special Agent Rosetti. When the bottle hits the rear window of Rosetti's car, the entire window shatters and little of the glass can be seen. A bottle of alcohol would not shatter a car window completely out. If anything, there might be a small crack where the bottle made impact. (01:12:20)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Jack took Illinois licence plate "BL 91021" off a Subaru SUV to put on the group's truck and put "V 986394" on the Subaru. Illinois truck (< 8,000 pounds) plates have the letter "B" on the middle-right side of the plate. The "BL 91021" would have too many numbers to be valid. By putting a license plate starting with "V" on the SUV - without the letter "B" on the middle-right side - the SUV would not have a truck plate like it should (and would also have too many numbers to be valid). (00:22:49)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Numerous students with large amounts of blood splattered on them from three students in the classroom "exploding" and others "popping" while going down the steps were able to go through the door - some rubbing their shirts against the doorframe and others touching the doorframe with their hands - without smearing blood on the door or frame. (01:01:51)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Near the end of the movie, three birds were flying around the room where trees, vines, flower, shrubs, and grass were growing. There is no explanation for where the birds came from, why Jim would revive them from pods (if that's where the first ones were), or why holograms wouldn't detect them. More seriously, where did all the bird droppings (guano) land - without being removed for decades - and how did the uric acid not cause damage/corrosion to the ship? Also, the confined area would be a breeding ground for various possible diseases which could infect the passengers when they came out of their pods. The unplanned introduction of live birds on the spaceship would cause a variety of unintended problems, some deadly.

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The way Katelyn exploded was described by Mara as being like a balloon popping. Every time a student exploded, blobs of blood (and tiny pieces of the body) splattered everywhere, making a huge bloody mess. When more than one student exploded going down the stairs, blood looked like it was being poured from a bucket. Sometimes, parts of clothing could be saturated in blood (such as a sleeve), but there was always more blood splattered nearby. When Katelyn was at the doctor's office (to get a piece of someone's bone removed from her forehead), "blood" goes smoothly/evenly around her eye to the lashes with no gaps or splatter marks. Blood from an explosion would not fall this "perfectly" around eyes. For example, folds in the eyelids would block some blood from landing in certain places and eyelashes should have some blood on them but Mara's did not. (01:41:27)

Other mistake: What Lucas supposedly did to one of his teachers at his previous high school (Paul Garrett at Milton High School in San Francisco) is far-fetched. Paul told Mr. Butler that Lucas also blackmailed him for an 'A' by videotaping him in his house drinking alcohol with an old friend. Lucas hunted down Paul's old friend (how would Lucas know about this friend?) and paid him to get Paul - a recovering alcoholic - to start drinking again (how would Lucas know that his teacher was an alcoholic, eight years sober?). Moreover, it doesn't make sense that someone's old friend would accept money from a teenager to get his eight-years-sober friend to drink. Lucas may be clever and conniving, but he was still a kid - someone educated adults should be able to outsmart... or at least not get duped by him.

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Mr. Butler told Principal Fermont that he'd like to talk to Mr. Ward about Lucas, and she gave Mr. Butler Lucas' home address. Mr. Butler went to Lucas' home without notice more than once and even went upstairs into Lucas' bedroom after Mr. Ward - a lawyer - told him to leave. If a teacher wants to talk to a student's parent, the parent would be asked to come to the school for a conference.

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Mike asked Carol where his checkbook was because he needed it to buy her a Christmas present. Carol pulled open the kitchen drawer she was conveniently standing next to, got the checkbook out, and handed it to Mike. A little later when Carol is telling Peter about her secret plan, she points out that she will be using their (Carol and Mike's) "special savings account." There would be a separate book for making deposits/withdrawals from the savings account, so it doesn't make sense for Mike to be using regular checking account to buy the present. (00:03:06 - 00:05:34)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The grade report that Lucas received in the mail indicated that they were "Final Grades" (Sixth Cycle). When Detective Speck asked Lucas why he thought Mr. Butler believed he "had it out for him", Lucas responded that he was trying to figure that out but it had been "ever since he gave me an 'F' on my midterm report card." Also, now that instructors in many/most (all?) schools submit grades on-line, students are able to view their grades on-line and hard copies of report cards may no longer be sent to students or parents via USPS. (00:51:15 - 01:03:38)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Rachel drives a Volvo V-90 (wagon) and Tom has what appears to be a Ford 4x4 Supercrew with a large black metal grille guard. (Distinguishing features on the truck are absent except for a small Ford logo largely hidden by the grille guard; even the area below the dashboard is blackened.) Tom rammed his truck into the rear end of Rachel's Volvo several times. The first bump was not very hard, but the next four were. The top of the grille guard is high enough to reach the bottom of the cargo window but the window did not break. There should still be extensive damage to the rear end of the Volvo. Viewers do not get to see the rear end immediately after it was rammed (00:33:49), but there is a quick rear end view later. The Volvo has a soccer ball-sized dent on the right side by the tail light and a few small black scrapes on the bumper. This doesn't match the damage that would be expected, and - more significantly - the Volvo already had that damage BEFORE being rammed by Tom. (00:24:07 - 01:01:45)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: An aerial shot of the woods is green instead of showing Fall foliage. When they are leaving, there's just as much - if not more - green leaves on trees than when they got there and it is after Thanksgiving (late November when there should be Autumn foliage, if any, on the trees). (00:18:29 - 01:24:13)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Isaac was able to break through his wrist restraints (taped to arms of a chair), escape two androids, quickly find and escape with Sara (while other androids started pursuing) - during a "full security lockdown" in a facility previously unknown to him. Isaac would not know the building's layout or where doors - and an exit - would be, but he had little problem getting out during lockdown while numerous people and androids were chasing him.

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Jack's slap across Nick's face didn't make contact. (01:25:40)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: The courses on Lucas' grade report are not given numbers or specific titles that would distinguish them from other courses (and levels) within a department. They are listed in general categories: "American History" (a minor distinction), "Calculus", "Chemistry", "English", and "French." A cover page for one of Lucas' assignments shows he was enrolled in "English 301" - still no descriptive title, but at least discernible from "English 101" and "English 201." (00:23:00 - 00:51:54)

KeyZOid

Other mistake: Fred was doused with lighter fluid and set on fire while strapped in a chair and his entire upper body was subjected to intense flames for at least a couple seconds. The chair was shoved several feet toward the door where a police officer was standing and started trying to smother the flames before they were off camera, but it can be assumed that it would take a few more seconds (at the least) to extinguish the flames. If he survived, Fred would have extensive burn scars, disfigurement, excruciating pain, have to undergo an unknown number of corrective surgeries, and face long-term rehabilitation. Later that day (within a few hours?), Rachel received a phone call and told her son Kyle that his uncle Fred was "going to be okay"! It was way too soon for anyone to know that and it defies logic.
