Drive picture

Other mistake: In the pre-credit scenes when the chopper spots the runaway car, Driver guns it (he clenches his jaw, fists and you hear the engine revving and gears changing) but he never catches up with the two cars only a few feet in front of him (which are proceeding at normal speed) for the whole length of the bridge.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon picture

Other mistake: So let me get this straight: Optimus Prime has Energon Swords hidden in both of his arms, with which he can slice through an entire Decepticon in one chop, yet when he is hanging from a few wires, despite having one arm entirely free, he can't cut himself loose?

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 picture

Other mistake: In both the books and the movies, Harry's Invisibility Cloak can always be seen until it is worn. In Diagon Alley, just before the Gringott's break-in, Ron pulls out the cloak to cover Harry and Griphook, but it turns invisible before he puts it on them. Ron merely mimes the motion of covering them.

X-Men: First Class picture

Other mistake: The knife used in the Argentina pub scene never has any blood on it, despite being driven into one man's stomach and another man's hand-twice.

Arthur Christmas picture

Other mistake: Grand-Santa has made 70 missions, and Santa (Malcolm) has just completed his 70th mission, totaling 140 years. Yet Grand-Santa is only 136 years old.

Suggested correction: Grandsanta's portrait is shown in the halls of the North Pole with the dates 1902-1941 (with Malcom having done 71 missions from 1941). Therefore he did 39 missions. That makes for a total of 109 years, meaning he was 27 when he took over from his own father.

Then it's a double mistake because Grand-Santa himself specifically said "I did my 70 missions..."

He's senile though. He could just be exaggerating while forgetting it's literally written on the wall.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules picture

Other mistake: When Greg is looking at the video of Rowley sitting on the foil ball, he notices it has only 4 views on YouTube. However, if you look closely, it has 24,963 comments - impossible if it's only been viewed 4 times.

Suggested correction: YouTube is broken. This kind of thing actually does happen in real life quite frequently. In fact, a video I was just watching had that problem.

Fast Five picture

Other mistake: Throughout the entire chase scene at the end, the vault creates sparks on the road. Yet when they get to the bridge, no sparks appear. This cannot be due to the vault being empty at this point, as the vault itself is 10 tonnes, as mentioned earlier in the film. (01:49:00)

Blitz picture

Other mistake: When the chief of police is introducing Porter Nash as the new Acting Inspector he shows a copy of a paper which, if you look carefully, tells about a second cop being shot. Later in the film, the second cop is shot and then the chief is shown to be reading the same paper. (00:13:25 - 00:18:15)

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 picture

Other mistake: Emmett states that the Cullens "haven't hunted in weeks", meaning all of the vampires should have black eyes. However, all of the actors still have their golden contacts in. This is especially noticeable on the Blu-Ray.

In Time picture

Other mistake: Will did not have enough time to place into the pot at the poker game. For those at the end of a hand, they each have contributed a minimum of an equal percent based on the number of people in the hand. There were potentially 5 people at the start of the hand, and Will did not have enough to cover 20% of the final pot. He would have needed well over 200 years available, and we know he had a little over 100.

Suggested correction: It's suggested that Will was at the table for a while, and we, the viewers, return later to see the stakes have increased. This is established when the camera shows his wrist as having over 250 years available, when he entered with barely over 100.

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows picture

Other mistake: In Moriarty's college study, the white King and Queen chess pieces are actually on the wrong squares. Queen starts on her own color.

Suggested correction: Anger and fear can be more than enough to gather enough strength to fight your way out of a difficult situation regardless of how much of a critical condition you are in.

Bridesmaids picture

Other mistake: The wedding is officiated in Illinois but the cop car is from Wisconsin.

Suggested correction: The cop car is from Wisconsin because Officer Rhodes drove from Milwaukee to the wedding. It's implied Helen called and arranged for him to pick Annie up as a surprise.

Paranormal Activity 3 picture

Other mistake: While Dennis is editing one of the video tapes, there's one on a table labeled "89" even though the film takes place in 1988.
