Then Came You picture

Plot hole: *SPOILER* Calvin's twin sister and mother were killed years earlier in an automobile accident. Calvin kept going to his doctor with "new symptoms", insisting there was something physically wrong. Dr. Collins told Calvin, "Your health issues aren't physical. I thought sending you to that support group would give you a better perspective." The doctor should have referred Calvin to a psychiatrist for a diagnosis and, if appropriate, the psychiatrist would recommend therapy or a support group. (00:10:15)

Kursk picture

Factual error: When the saturation divers open the outer hatch on Kursk, they drop a glow stick. When they do, it falls to the floor on the submarine, indicating the inner hatch was open. The inner hatch of Kursk was closed, later opened by an ROV.

Between Worlds picture

Continuity mistake: When Nick Cage and the woman get to her place and start to make out, he takes her bra off, leaving her bare chested as he fondles her. It cuts to a different angle as they are kissing and suddenly her bra is back on again, only to be gone in the following shot.

A.X.L. picture

Other mistake: Miles, a 17 - or 18-year-old whose "grades were trash", may have been able to fix his motorcycle, but it seems highly unlikely that he would be able to fix (a few times) a highly advanced robotic dog like A-X-L. [A-X-L was able to self-correct certain things.].

An Elephant Sitting Still picture An Elephant Sitting Still mistake picture

Revealing mistake: When Jin and Bu are confronted by the dog owner, Bu is standing on the right side of the frame. Then suddenly, Bu ducks down in front of the camera and repositions himself on the left side of the frame. Presumably, the actor was standing on the wrong side of the frame and had to reposition himself and ducked down because he didn't want to get in the way of the camera but unintentionally got caught doing so. (01:26:20)

Future World picture

Continuity mistake: When the boy is given the gun and bullets so he can go and find a temple to cure his mother, he has a handful of bullets and one slips down and falls into his sleeve, partly sticking out. It cuts to his face and then back to his hand from a different angle. He has his hand cupped still but you can tell it's empty with no bullets in it. Also his gun keeps changing positions in his other hand in each shot. From pointed down, to pointed straight up, to pointed to the side. (00:17:15)

Continuity mistake: Mr. Shamsher at the beginning of the movie steps out of the helicopter with one door open, but when he brings across the other leg both of the large doors are suddenly open at the cut. (00:03:00)

Lords of Chaos picture

Other mistake: During the murder in the stairwell, an old woman opens her apartment door outward, and Varg kicks it shut. Apartment doors always open inward, as did Euronymous' apartment in the same building.

Suggested correction: Euronymous' apartment door opens outward into the hallway, at least in the final scene it does when he's trying to get away from Varg.

Continuity mistake: Kevin and his daughter handed the invite for the dream-like contest to the protagonist. He shoos her away saying "Liv, don't you need some milk with that cookie?"

Birthmarked picture

Other mistake: After the three kids took the car and caused a 19-car pile-up on the 141, Social Services got a court order removing them from the home and parents were not allowed to see them. Social/Child Welfare Services try to maintain or preserve the family unit and view removal from the home as a last resort or in cases of severe neglect or abuse that endangers the child. Social Services would not be likely to take such drastic measures for this incident. The driver may have been adjudicated a PINS.
