Adam says that he can't operate the time jet as he is injured but in the beginning it shows him flying the time jet after he had been shot. It is revealed in the dialogue that Christos shot Adam. Presumably, this would have had to have happened while on the ground instead of during flight.

At 5:52, in the last two shots of young Adam's mother before she leaves for the date with Derek, the back of her dress is unzipped. In all the other shots of her leading up to this point it's zipped all the way up.

At 27:10 the movie plays the sound effect of Ray wetting his pants, and Adult Adam asks "Are you peeing right now?" but in the next scene he lets Ray go. We can clearly see that his pants are clean as new, with no wet spots to be spotted.

At the end of the movie, when Young Adam freezes and remembers to hug his mother, she is holding an envelope, then reading a letter, then back to the envelope between shots.

When Big Adam is first discovered and contacted by Christos, Big Adam is fighting two robot-type fighters with a weapon in his right hand. When Christos breaks up the fight and begins to speak, the weapon is missing, but then reappears between shots.

At 1:27:09 Louis mentions the gun fires rounds that contain a magnetic steel core; so, the weapon itself should have been pulled towards the reactor at the start of the breach, considering it pulls all things magnetic towards it. This would include its contents.

The bigger objects should have been the ones attracted first to the magnetic device, well before being able to pop small rivets out of a jacket.

A person's DNA does not change because they are injured. There is NO way, genetically, a machine could know that a person was injured from their DNA.

There is a reflector telescope in the background of several shots of Young Adam's bedroom. The telescope is upside down, as the eyepiece should be at the top, not the bottom.

Older Adam states he is an Air Force pilot.

It might be believed that all of the metal objects around the large magnet should be affected, but this would only apply to ferrous metals. It is perfectly reasonable to assume that non-ferrous metals such as aluminum or titanium would be used in the construction of a facility built around a particularly powerful magnet.

Louis Reed warns that removing the hard drive from the accelerator may cause an explosion killing everything within 100 miles, yet shooting the system, causing a containment failure and meltdown has no drastic effect.

This is because safety measures have been taken in case of malfunction but he had not thought of the possibility of removing the drive altogether.

Adam did not take the opportunity to time jump as soon as he flew off and before the other jet started to attack, defeating the very purpose of leaving his wife to buy him time.

Incorrectly regarded as a plot hole. Before they take off, older Adam clearly states that they need altitude before the bio stop will come down and he can take over.

The ship can repair itself but only if its operator presses a button. Why wouldn't it always repair itself? It needs the operator to press the button, but it won't let the operator press it if the operator is injured? Who came up with THAT design? It's a very clumsy plot point to require Adult Adam to bring Young Adam along.

However, safety measures must have been taken to prevent competitors to commandeer a ship along with preventing an injured pilot to jeopardize a jet by fainting while flying. Furthermore, a technician could well bypass the security and have access to it when parked at the facility.

When the power shuts off, Young Adam goes outside, and the lights inside the house are now on.

However, it is not shown the time elapsing between Young Adam getting out of his room, resetting the fuses/power on, and then going outside (the garage also has power when he comes back).

The future jet's rows of switches are cheap rocker switches commonly available today.

(at around 1h 11 mins) They are in 2018, but the Cheerios cereal box is a 2021 Limited Edition with heart shaped cereal as noted on the back of the box.

When future Adam says Chuck and Ray's names, they don't question how he knows their names.

Adam was born in February of 2010 and traveled back from the year 2050, which would make him 40 years old. When he goes back to 2018 and gets in the elevator with his father to go down to his lab, he tells him, "It only took you 44 years to bring me here."

Adult Adam states that the bullet wound went right through but never checks his loins and does not tend to the exit wound.

The teacher in the hall at the beginning witnesses a kid being chased by several others and yet fails to follow them and interfere.

One plot point driven home is that it takes a special 2nd push to close the refrigerator door in the Reed home all the way. Yet when Ellie Reed closes it in the background before leaving, it closes all the way without the special 2nd push.

When Sorian yells to Christos to get the drive, Adult Adam just stands idly without noticing the attack.
