Mistake Continuity: In the scene when Dr. Coleman wakes up in Anna's body, as Lindsey Lohan exits her room her bedroom door is still removed, but a few seconds after she runs out of the room after Harry the door has been re-attached.

Mistake Continuity: The 1st scene where Harry blows a horn in Anna's ear, she chased him out of the room and her blanket was thrown over on the RIGHT SIDE, but if you look close when she goes to close the door the blanket it almost all the way off the bed on the LEFT SIDE

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Anna and her Mom are first together in their switched states: "Anna" is trying to wake up "Mom" and on the wall, left to the bed, we see this ugly turtle wall ornament. In all shots subsequent, however, it's disappeared.

Mistake Continuity: The way Anna holds the notepad, to show grandpa the message, changes between the shots.

Mistake Audio problem: During the audition song when the drummer first looks at Anna wondering why she isn't playing, his sticking is out of synch with the drumming.

Mistake Continuity: When Anna (Tess) is in Anna's room in her robe with her hair up, she is looking for the fortune in Anna's pants pocket. She finds it and drops the paints, but in the next shot they show a close up of the fortune and Anna still has the pants in her hand.

Mistake Continuity: Right after Anna and Tess leave House of Chang, Tess' organizer goes off reminding her about a parent/teacher meeting. "Tess" freaks out, and "Anna" puts her hands on "Tess'" face to calm her down. The organizer has disappeared.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where "Pink Slip" is singing "Ultimate" right at the end, you can see a small group of girls clumped together behind Anna and her girl-friends, and in the next shot they are completely gone. It's impossible for them to have moved entirely out of eyesight in those few seconds they are of camera.

Mistake Continuity: Once Grandpa takes the underwear off Harry's head and sets it on the counter, it continually moves. Originally it is at the edge, draped over a little bit. Next it moves inward a little. After Mom shuts off the power, it is almost halfway on the counter.

Mistake Continuity: At the beginning of the movie, Ryan's hair is short. In the scene where he, Anna and Tess are talking about why Anna was riding on the back of Jake's motorcycle, his hair is several inches longer. At the wedding rehearsal his hair is short again, the same length it was at the beginning of the film.

Mistake Continuity: When Anna and Tess are on the staircase checking to see if the coast is clear, we see Harry and Grandpa eating cereal, where Harry's cereal box is seen from the back. In the next shot of them, it's seen from the front.

Mistake Continuity: When Anna is pulling Tess in her bed she loses her grip and falls to the floor. As Anna falls you can see her bare foot come up, but in the previous shot she was wearing socks.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Anna and Tess are getting dressed for the wedding rehearsal, Anna (Tess) makes Tess (Anna) take out the earring from her ear, that she got pierced hours before. When she does this there is no sign of pain, redness, or blood that would occur after pulling out a fresh piercing.

Mistake Audio problem: When the band Pink Slip is performing their song at The House of Blues, near the beginning of the song, Anna's two band mates are looking at her and wondering why she isn't playing. Maddie (the lead singer) is looking at Anna and singing, but Peg (the other guitar player) is looking at Anna and not singing. However, in the song, you can hear someone singing a harmony note opposite the main melody. How could that happen if Peg wasn't singing?

Mistake Continuity: After Anna gets out of her second detention, when the things fall out of her bag, first you can see that the bag is still on her shoulder but her bag just turned upside down. In the next shot when you see all the things on the ground, you can see the bag touching the ground. When the shot goes back to Anna you can see the bag is on her shoulder again and upside down again.

Mistake Revealing: When Stacy Hinkhouse pulls the shirt over Anna/Tess, put it in slow motion and at one point you can see it is a stunt double and not Lindsay Lohan.

Mistake Continuity: Anna's friend, the lead singer in the House of Blues performance, had not very much blush on, but an overload of eyeshadow on at the rehearsal, but when she got to the House of Blues she had an overload of both. When they were actually playing and after, the blush was cut back on again.

Mistake Continuity: When Anna is arguing with her mom in the kitchen, she mentions Jake. When she does her entire body position changes completely between the instant camera cuts.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Tess is cutting the underwear off of Harry's head, she leaves the scissors on the counter away from the pile of the pieces of the underwear. Later you can see that it is in the pile of underwear.

Mistake Plot hole: When Anna in her mum's body, gets to the office she has to sign for a package. At this point she finds out that her mum is "blind". She should have found out when looking through her mum's purse which was closer than the form she had to sign.
