Factual error: The very last thing we see before the camera fades to the credits is a waving American Flag. You will notice that the flag is that of the 48 states, not the 50. The stars printed are not in the correct sequence.
Factual error: In order to incapacitate the Fimples, the Commandos fire sleeping pills into their drink via a mouse trap converted into a catapult. But in every spring- or torsion-powered one-armed catapult, a horizontal bar is required which stops the arm as it swings forward, or otherwise the load would be smashed into the ground in front of the weapon.
Factual error: When the crew head into Wyoming to buy alcohol, there is a shot of the sign the marks the Wyoming border. That particular design of the sign didn't come into use until after 1993, when Wyoming changed its license plates to that design.
Factual error: There is a scene where the guy takes a date whale watching in Boston Harbor. There are no whales in Boston Harbor, it's at least an hour and a half trip out to go see whales from Boston.
Factual error: When Felix and Oscar are on the plane and Oscar goes to sit next to Felice, the pilot says they will be landing in twenty minutes. This cant be as the police sheriff said the flight would take forty minutes. I don't think Oscar was in the bathroom for twenty minutes or the seatbelt sign wasn't on for twenty minutes either.
Factual error: When testing the new phone installation, the engineer only dialled the number, and not the area code, as you have to do on a mobile phone.
Factual error: When Vinnie Jones goes to the guy having the sunbed he lifts the top of the bed up and smashes it down on the guy's face, breaking his nose and making it bleed. He does this a few times. The thing is, no sunbed's canopy will come down so low it could touch your face. Even fully closed, inside the sunbed will be enough room above your nose of at least 6-9 inches. Even if the sunbed's canopy is closed with a huge force, unless it breaks the bottom half off then there is no way the top half can touch your face. They are designed like this to prevent accidents.
Factual error: During the morning training session, Shang shot an arrow to the top of the pole so his soldiers can get it, but the arrow is stuck in a horizontal position. A difficult position to achieve, for someone shooting an arrow from below. Even if the arrow hit the pole at such a point in its arc, its kinetic energy would be at its weakest, preventing it from boring into the pole.
Factual error: When Chris Farley is climbing up the side of the mountain to return the bird egg, you see the bottom of his moccasins and they appear to be made of a ribbed (for traction) material. Back then, they would have been made from animal hides and the bottoms would have been smooth not ribbed.
Factual error: When Vic is beginning to fall in love with Louisa, he stays up one night reading her novel-in-progress. However, Louisa is Spanish, and it's clear from her accent that her native language is Spanish, and writers very very rarely would deliberately choose to write in their second language when they could write in their first language - so her manuscript is almost certainly in Spanish. And it's extremely unlikely that Vic speaks Spanish: he shows no signs of speaking Spanish; his character is not that bright and not that well-educated; and even if he learned it in school he's been out of it for many years and wouldn't be able to read it at that time. Even if Louisa had chosen to have her work translated so it could be read more widely, she was in the process of writing it; translation is a long, expensive, and involved process and it wouldn't have been done while the work was still being written, as we have already learned it is. Therefore, Vic would have been unable to read Louisa's work.
Factual error: When Bill and Jason are heading up to Canada (and Lucia is following in her own car), they are driving past several high mountain peaks, and up through a winding valley. Problem is, they started in South Bend, IN and are heading towards Detroit, MI, and that area of the country is notoriously flat, other than occasional hills.
Factual error: When Max received a letter, the address showed that he lived in Cincinnati. But at the end of the movie, Max winds up Freak's bird, and lets it fly over the river towards the Cincinnati skyline. This means he is on the other side of the river, in Newport Kentucky.
Suggested correction: That does not mean he lives in Newport, he could have crossed the river to fly Freak's Bird there.
Factual error: When Chucky blows up the cop car with a flaming rag in the gas tank, he is shown opening the fuel cap in the side of the car. The car in question is a Chevy Caprice, the fuel cap is located behind the rear licence plate.
Factual error: At the beginning of Ringmaster, a road sign for Tampa is shown, and later, Willie says he works at Wal-Mart in Lakeland, but when Angel gets arrested she is taken to Broward County Jail, which is where Fort Lauderdale is located - on the other side of the state.
Factual error: Bruce has life threatening asthma yet doesn't know how to use his inhaler properly. The way he uses it, with his mouth open, breathing out too quickly and activating the inhaler again too quickly, it would have little effect. Even with bad attacks you quickly learn that rushing the treatment isn't going to relieve the symptoms any quicker. (00:39:25)
Factual error: Beatrice is a different woman in this movie than the first movie. The Beatrice from the first movie is the lady who asks Uber and Jacoille to scare her child so he could do his homework.
Factual error: When the whole of the court go on the "view," it seems as though the bus includes barristers, the judge and members of the jury. In reality, the judge goes with the jury, the barristers are not allowed to.
Factual error: When Max and Dirk are at the parking lot flying a kite, Margaret shows up with her plane. When he looks at her map of the flight plan it says Magnum street, but it was filmed on Mangum (Delmar Stadium in Houston, TX).
Factual error: After the group of ladies drop Jake off, he's seen at the on-ramp of "I-15 east" trying to hitch a ride. I-15 is a North / South interstate. While portions go east / West, its on-ramps are still labeled as North or South.
Factual error: When the plane takes off, the flight attendants on board are standing doing a safety demonstration. In real life the take off gradient is much steeper meaning they would either be thrown against the floor or at least find it difficult to stand. Also due to FAA regulation it is forbidden for anyone to stand on take off.
