Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (factual errors): Toward the very end Sheriff Carter says he looked up his IQ of 111 and found out that it was average, completely average. Actually on the IQ scale 90-109 is average and 110-119 is considered superior intelligence therefore at 111 Sheriff Carter would be considered to have superior, not average, intelligence. (Zoe's IQ at 157 would place her at the level of Genius where less than 1/4 of 1 percent of the population falls.)
  • Goof (factual errors): In the final scene, debris is seen burning up in the atmosphere, creating "shooting stars." Unfortunately, the sky is cloudy and the shooting stars are seen below the clouds. Real meteorites would have burned up long before descending through the clouds.
