P.K. picture

Character mistake: At the end of the movie, when Jaggu is listening to the sounds recorded by PK, the audio contains the question which she asked, "Tumhare planet pe sab aise hi hote, bade kan wale?" but does not contain the answer which PK gave, even though he was sitting right there. This seems to suggest that PK did not exist in the real world.

Before We Go picture

Factual error: While Evans and Eve are still in Grand Central they overhear an announcement which states "According to Port Authority policy This station will be closing for the evening." Grand Central is not part of the NY/NJ Port Authority. Also Grand Central is a terminal, not a station, as trains do not pass through Grand Central, they enter and turn around.

Lupin the 3rd picture

Factual error: In the opening heist, the gang of thieves wants to steal "The Medal of Zeus." A plate at the museum explains that in Ancient Greece, Olympic champions were awarded olive wreaths, up to the 88th Olympics in 424 BC, when a golden medal was given to the victor for the first time. This last bit about gold medals is just made up by the movie. But it also gets the timeline wrong; the 88th Olympics were in 428 BC. 424 BC is when the 89th games took place. (00:03:30)

Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead picture

Factual error: Just like in the previous movie, Herzog is referred to as "colonel", in particular in the WWII museum where Martin reads about his history. But both in the museum's picture of him, and throughout the movie, Herzog is wearing the uniform of a SS Standartenführer. To hold a title of Oberst (colonel), he would have been a member of the Wehrmacht, regular army, not SS.

Bang Bang picture

Revealing mistake: During the opening, one of the shots showing infographics about the stolen diamond lingers long enough to allow the viewer to spot the most obvious kind of filler text - literally the "Lorem Ipsum."
