Other mistake: When Klump is being replaced by Buddy Love, and the guy is putting the new name on the door, it doesn't make sense that the name is readable from the inside of the office. Normally, names on the doors would be put on the out-side, so that passers-by would be able to read it. The name being applied in vinyl on the glass door is being put on, on the wrong side of the door.

Continuity mistake: At the first family dinner scene, grandma starts coughing. The camera shows her from the front with a glass of water to drink. The camera then switches to the side and shows her with a glass of coke in front of her. Her daughter says "Momma drink some water" and suddenly it turns into a glass of water again.
Mama Klump: Well, I hope you fart until your asshole falls out!
Trivia: In the scenes with Eddie Murphy and Dave Chappelle, much of their dialogue was ad-libbed.
