18th Jan 2009
Visible crew/equipment: After arriving at Lava Springs, when Sharpay signs her initials on the last two fliers in the wideshot, the reflection of the camera and crewmember are reflected on the surface of the Star Dazzle trophy, right beside Ryan's (blue shirt) reflection on its right. (00:11:45)
19th Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: In the Lava Springs kitchen, Kelsi holds up a dish towel, when they sing, "Maybe there's a better way to fix this greasy mess," and she drops the towel. The towel repeatedly moves around from the cart's bottom shelf, to the floor and disappears repeatedly throughout the scene. (00:22:25)
19th Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: The binoculars in Ryan's right hand disappears and reappears after the sprinklers have been turned on, when he and Sharpay spy on Gabriella and Troy. (00:27:15)
19th Dec 2007
Revealing mistake: When Troy crouches down on the rocks, and leans down to see his reflection in the water, oddly the reflection is not reversed, yet his hair is combed the opposite way. (Did the director actually think that if Troy's hair was combed the opposite way it would pass as a reversed reflection?) Additionally, when he crouches down, the bottom button on Troy's shirt is unbuttoned, but in the reflection (as well as in the previous and following shots) the bottom button is buttoned up.
12th Jan 2008
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Troy and Gabriella kiss, when they are about to kiss for the second time, the wide shot shows Troy putting his hand on Gabriella's neck, but in the close-up she is seen putting her hand on his neck.
23rd Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: When Chad and Troy show up to caddy for the Evans family, the positions of Ryan and his mother, as well as the golf club bags, change depending on camera angle. The shadows they all cast also repeatedly change.
23rd Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: In Troy's kitchen, when he's on the cell with Fulton, in the front shot Zeke puts down a half eaten apple and holds a carrot in his right hand with an empty left. In the side shot, he holds an apple in his right hand and a water bottle in his left, but next front shot it's the same as the first shot. (00:10:00)
23rd Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: During Sharpay's version of "You Are the Music In Me" after she tosses her red jacket atop the piano it moves from front to side, again and again, during the song. (01:12:25)
23rd Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: Just as they start to sing "What Time Is It" the top of Troy's boxers are visible above his belt. He starts out wearing light colored boxers, which change to dark, then light, and again to dark colored boxers during this song. (00:02:05)
26th Aug 2007
Continuity mistake: During "Work This Out" in the close-up when Troy sings, "A way to have fun," his name tag disappears, then reappears.
11th Oct 2007
Visible crew/equipment: During Fabulous in the beginning of the song if you look into Sharpay's sunglasses you can see a white light reflector.
6th Jan 2009
Continuity mistake: At the start, when the camera pans through the doorway, as Ms. Darbus speaks on the 'stage', there is nothing between Zeke and the doorway. In the next shot, a tall wood stool appears out of nowhere right beside Zeke. Also, the height and structure of the stool he is sitting on changes.
23rd Dec 2007
Visible crew/equipment: Throughout the film, set equipment such as the boom mic and pole, reflector screen or monitor are visible in the reflections of characters' eyeglasses and sunglasses. Such as when one of the Sharpettes asks, "So what's the theme of the summer's talent show?" in Sharpay's next close-up the boom mic and pole are visible in the reflection of her sunglasses.
23rd Dec 2007
Continuity mistake: At the start, when the camera pans through the doorway of Ms. Darbus's classroom, Zeke sits on a tall stool that is about 3 feet high. Oddly enough, in the following shots, the munchkin stool he now sits on only reaches the height of about 1 foot. (Did they really think we wouldn't notice?) The wood stool also moves forward a few feet. (00:00:50)
26th May 2008
Continuity mistake: At the karaoke bar, before Holly sings the second time, when Ciara and Daniel walk in she puts her coat down under the table, but in the next shot she's still wearing it. (00:48:45)
26th May 2008
Visible crew/equipment: When Holly and Sharon are showing the apartment to the couple, just as Sharon says, "I think if you offer another hundred grand, they'll back right down," the reflection of a moving boom mic is visible in the center window between Holly and Ted. (00:40:30)
26th May 2008
Continuity mistake: At the Irish Famine Memorial, when Daniel says, "I think you're a little bit perverted," regarding the corned beef sandwiches, Holly's handbag dangles from her left arm, but next shot it's on her right arm. (00:54:10)
26th May 2008
Continuity mistake: Near the start, as Holly removes her jewelry, Gerry holds her boot mimicking her. Its zipper faces Gerry's right, with the heel beside his face, but when he slams it down the boot is in his hand the opposite way. (00:03:40)
26th May 2008
Continuity mistake: When Holly and Sharon are showing the apartment to the couple, in the first exterior shot from the street, as we hear Holly's voiceover and see her in the center window, all of the window shades on the left are halfway down. In the next interior shot, the shades on the right and left side are up near the top. (00:40:15)
26th May 2008
Continuity mistake: While William is in the shower, Holly finishes the dishes and folds the towel neatly then places it on the bowl, but that towel messes and rights itself and the utensils move in the following shots. (01:15:40)
