    “Star Trek: Insurrection” Goofs List

    • Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Picard sings “heart” instead of “foot” in the second chorus of “A British Tar”, despite having the lyrics displayed in front of him on his computer. Considering the stress he’s under, he does an excellent job.
    • Continuity: When Anij slows down time (the water falls very slowly, the bird’s wings flap slowly) she picks a flower and then blows the spores off of it. She’s slowed down time, but when she picks the flower the other flowers next to the one she picks move back and forth at full speed.
    • Revealing mistakes: In the beginning, when Data is being chased into the village, the stone bridge shakes and flexes like a wooden prop as the children run across it.
    • Crew or equipment visible: Shadow of equipment visible on the cave wall, just before Picard goes through the hole he has blasted in the wall.
    • Continuity: When he discovers the holoship hidden in the lake, Data opens a dam and lowers the water level. But when he boards the raft with Picard and Anij, the pier is still at the correct height for the normal water level.
    • Continuity: When blasting through the cave wall, a tree falls over at the side and Picard and Data both look at it. It is standing up again in the next scene.
    • Revealing mistakes: Early in the film a woman is knocked backwards, the man standing behind her goes to catch her well before she starts falling.
    • Revealing mistakes: When Picard shoots the Son’a guard on the holoship, a crash mat can be seen when he falls off the roof.
    • Continuity: During the phaser fight in the holoship, A Son’a soldier is shot and rolls off the roof of the hut, and when Picard ends the simulation, the soldier is not lying on the floor stunned when we see the full holodeck revealed, unless he was a hologram too.
    • Incorrectly regarded as goofs: During Data and Picard’s phaser fight inside the holoship, the disruptor shots from the Son’a weapon do not disrupt the holograms as we see the Son’a Commander do later in the movie to reveal that was fooled. In fact, they chip walls and splash water. However, the holoship was designed to be a ‘floating holodeck’ to transport unwilling colonists, so the simulation would likely be programmed to react in a realistic manner to weapons fire so that the deception isn’t accidentally discovered; likewise, the crew of the Enterprise may not have had time to reactivate the ‘reality mode’ when they changed the simulation.
    • Continuity: When Picard, Data, and Anij are paddling out to the holoship, Data and Picard switch sides on the raft between shots.
    • Continuity: When Data and Picard beam back up to the Enterprise after jumping into the Ba’ku lake, Data’s uniform is dry while Picard’s is still soaked.
    • Revealing mistakes: When Picard is first meeting with the Baku, there are children playing a hacky-sack type game in the background. During two short shots, the children can be seen making kicking motions but there are no hacky-sacks to be seen.
    • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Picard meets the Ba’Ku for the first time, he introduces Counselor Troi as Dr. Crusher and Dr. Crusher as Counselor Troi. Both actresses nod to the wrong names as well.
    • Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Ru’afo socks Dougherty in the face, he obviously misses, yet we hear a punch effect.
    • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): While singing “A British Tar”, Data, who supposedly has perfect recall, sings the wrong notes for part of the song.
    • Continuity: When Picard is beamed on to the collector ship before facing Ru’afo, he is beamed from another Son’a ship, but he materializes with a Federation transporter effect, not a Son’a one.
    • Crew or equipment visible: After Picard rescues Anij from the water, Data says, “In the event of an emergency, my body can be used as a flotation device.” Data then “rises” above the water as if he is inflating. The platform that raises Brent Spiner higher in the water is visible through the water underneath him.
    • Crew or equipment visible: In the beginning of the movie, after Picard, Riker, Troi, and Crusher enter the turbolift, the turbolift doors close and the reflection of the camera can be seen in the shiny turbolift door label.
    • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Troi comments that she had never kissed Riker with a beard before. In actuality, Troi kissed bearded Riker in the episode “Star Trek: The Next Generation: Menage a Troi (#3.24)” (1990), as well as in several other episodes.
    • Miscellaneous: In the scene where the crew meets Picard in the Captain’s Yacht, the captain tells Geordi and Riker to take the ship and transmit a message to the Federation. If you look at Geordi’s collar you see a gold and two black pips (rank insignia). He should have two gold and one black pip for his rank of Lt. Commander (one gold and two black pips does not belong to any rank in Star Trek).
    • Continuity: After Picard and Data dive off the Holoship to rescue a drowning Anij, Data informs them that “in the event of a water landing, I have been designed to serve as a flotation device”. Although this is obviously a joke comparing Data to an airline seat, it is inconsistent with information originally provided in “Star Trek: The Next Generation: Descent: Part 2 (#7.1)” (1993). In that episode, Geordi tells Data about a time where they went sailing, and Data decided to go for a swim and ended up sinking to the ocean floor due to lack of buoyancy, and having to walk over a kilometer back to the shore.
    • Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Data used a contraction in the scene where the cave collapses, saying “it’s safer over there.” Although the series established that Data can not use contractions, he had the emotion chip installed into his positronic net in Star Trek: Generations (1994) which would likely allow him to not only experience emotions, but to use contractions as well. Also worth mentioning that although Geordi tells Capt. Picard that he didn’t take his emotion chip with him, it is possible he reinstalled it during the course of the movie.
