Meet the Fockers (2004)

Corrected entry: In the scene in which a big deal is made that the baby's "first word" is an obscenity. This isn't his first word, though. Much earlier in the movie when the housekeeper, Isabelle, appears during the fondue dinner the baby says "mama" while reaching for her breasts. Everyone around the table is watching the baby as he does this, but all fail to notice that he spoke.

Correction: Actually, the syllables Ma, Aa, Da, Pa, Ca and one or two others are the first a baby learns. As a result, the word mama is not counted as a babies first word, because he or she may not be referring to their mother. Similarly, if the baby had said dada or papa it wouldn't really be their first word. Jack, being a childcare fanatic, would know this. See http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/baby/babydevelopment/6573.html and look at 4-6 months.

Corrected entry: Sodium pentathol, the truth serum given to Gaylord, renders the drugged person in an unconscious, trance-like state. Gaylord would not have been able to walk around and function relatively normally as shown in the film.

Correction: Actually, in low enough doses it doesn't, it just causes a drunk-like state. See this site for more information. http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/other/sodium_pentothol_info1.shtml.

Corrected entry: When Gay is given truth serum, why does he then profess that he has a son with Isabella, if the truth is that he does not know anything about this?

Correction: One side effect of Sodium Pentathol is high suggestability. Jack's suggestion that he had a son made him BELIEVE it was true.
