A Street Cat Named Bob picture

Other mistake: After a month of suspension, James can finally sell again The Big Issue. The issue he carries in the street though, is issue 1174, from early October 2015. Besides the anachronism, the first issue he was selling, well over a month before, was number 1175. (01:16:00)

Death Al Dente: A Gourmet Detective Mystery picture

Other mistake: Mateo shows the tram ticket to Maggie; date and time (March 3, 2016, 13:23) are not valid to prove an alibi for a murder happened at the end of February at quarter to 1 pm - not when the person said that they already were at the location where the tram supposedly took them. (00:51:40)

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter picture

Other mistake: Alice is running behind the armored cars. Once she manages to get on top of the car, suddenly the zombies that were only behind her and nowhere near the car are found at the sides too, attacking a guard and later Alice as well. Not possible considering if zombies were able to get there, they would have killed Alice while she was running.

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates picture

Other mistake: Mike and Dave put the ad on Craigslist, and people begin to share it through social media. The first time we see someone share it through Facebook the date of the post is "March 19 at 12:38 AM." Moments later there's a zoom in and now the date is still the 19th, still at 12:38 AM, but the month changed to May. (00:12:30)

The Infiltrator picture

Other mistake: The movie poster shows a reflection of a $100 bill on the lenses. The bill should be flipped.

Suggested correction: Since this isn't part of a scene in the movie, it's not a mistake. It's just a stylized image. It would be no different from pointing out a group of people superimposed over each other or appearing larger than big objects they're next to.

Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life picture

Other mistake: When Rafe arrives at the new school, principal Dwight has his arms full of items he confiscated when the morning has not even started yet, very specific and obvious rule-breakers like a skate, 2 footballs and a basketball. So did some dudes just start playing ball and shooting hoops in front of the principal at 8 am in the middle of the street? Who are those rebels? There's no trace of rule defiance early in the movie.

Ride Along 2 picture

Other mistake: In the hit on Port Commissioner Griffin at the beginning of the movie, he picks up the phone at 9:20 (office wall clock). When he is killed, there's a close-up of his phone that is totally, well, phony for many reasons. Most notably, the time of the call is stuck at 36 seconds even when the close-up lasts longer than a second. You can read also on top that the time is 1:44 PM, which is inconsistent with what shown earlier and with the fact that it's evening! It is also displayed as a Blocked Caller, too, which makes no sense. (00:02:10 - 00:03:00)

Nine Lives picture

Other mistake: Two security guards at Firebrand are shown watching a video of Tom, as Mr. Fuzzypants, jumping across a doorway and Lara and Madison attempting to catch him that Nicole filmed. The problem is, the camera angle shows an angle in front of Lara, Madison and the cat and Nicole filmed the video from behind the cat. Nicole can even be seen filming in the background of the video. There is still no way this footage could have been filmed from this angle. (01:15:55)

Ghostbusters picture

Other mistake: After the ghost "possesses" the building and blows out the windows, no shards of glass or debris land on the Ghostbusters as they get up to escape, even though there was plenty of time for the glass and debris to rain down on them.

Suggested correction: You can plainly see that the debris is actually flowing upwards in defiance of gravity. Spectral energy is running amok and the laws of physics are all over the place.

Jackie picture

Other mistake: Bobby Kennedy is seen watching television, including a scene that seems to be the shooting of Oswald. However, the Oswald shooting happens about 16 minutes later. (00:41:40 - 00:58:00)

Billionaire Boy picture

Other mistake: When Warwick Davis shows Joe the form he's tricked his father into signing to allow him to transfer schools, the form is shown full screen. The "home" phone number is the same as that used in the school's letterhead, and there is text that says"insert name of fictitious school here." Also in this scene the name of the headmaster and phone number is visible, but none of those details match what is on the school's advertising board a couple of scenes later when Joe starts at his new school.

Norm of the North picture

Train to Busan picture

Other mistake: When Jin-hee gets a text from Yong-guk saying that the people have been rescued and are heading back, the time is 1:56PM. This time is not possible given the events taken place prior. First, the train set off early in the morning, and every time a phone is shown after the outbreak starts, the time is always in the 7AM hour. For example, when Seok-woo is reading the texts from Kim, the time is 7:16AM and when he is on the phone to ask about the military being deployed in Daejeon, the time displayed is 7:20AM. The events of the movie after this point mostly play out in real time, with the only part being skimmed over was the remainder of the journey to Daejeon Station, so there is no way over six hours could have passed in between these two points. (01:03:25)
