Jennifer Lopez and Alex O'Loughlin in The Back-up Plan (2010)

Goofs

The Back-up Plan

Edit

Continuity

When Zoe is walking down the aisle trying to get a hold of Stan, her hands change positions in wide and close-up shots.
When Zoe and Stan get on the subway, it's pouring down rain. When they emerge, however, everything is dry.
When Stan catches Zoe eating chili beans with bread in her hands, she's holding the food with both hands together. In the reverse angle her hands are separated and then back again.

Factual errors

The economics information on the chalkboard when Stan is taking the exam (71 minutes) is incorrect -- he was right to look perplexed and then walk out of that class. On the left side of the screen, the graph with a horizontal line is labeled as "perfectly inelastic," with "E=0". Nope, a horizontal demand curve is "perfectly elastic" and has an elasticity coefficient of infinity. A perfectly inelastic demand curve is vertical and has an elasticity coefficient of zero.

Revealing mistakes

In the final scene the babies in the strollers are obvious dolls.
Just after Zoe finds her pillow in the dumpster, and uses her friend instead, you can very clearly see Zoe wearing a "baby bump" prop over her belly.
During the end scene the able-bodied dog playing Nuts has struggled over the wheelchair and is clearly in discomfort trying to get all four legs on the ground.
