The Way Back picture

Factual error: After sleeping in and being late for practice, Jack is driving to the gym. It is supposed to be morning yet the shadows made by the sun show the sun is setting over the ocean and therefore evening.

A Quiet Place Part II picture

Factual error: 1. Turntables used by radio stations have no repeat play function; they are strictly manual operation. 2. Even if they did, continuous play of one 45rpm record would have eventually elicited a skip, and later the complete wearing through of the vinyl by friction of the needle. (01:25:40)

Don't Tell a Soul picture

Factual error: The manner in which "Hamby" fell into the hole (or well) did not reflect physics or reality. He was running/chasing Joey and Matt. Whenever one walks or runs, one's feet are never straight down together (like standing), so only one foot could have been over the hole or failed to clear it. Hamby should have tripped and fallen over (face forward) with his upper body landing past the hole. This should have kept him from falling straight down into the hole (as if dropped from above the hole).

Half Brothers picture

Factual error: Renato and Asher could not just fly from the USA to Mexico; they'd need permission to fly and crossed a border without a passport.

Arkansas picture

Factual error: It would not be possible for Kyle to see the woman breast-feeding - and certainly not as shown. Kyle was driving an SUV in the left lane and Swin was the front-seat passenger. When a car was approaching the SUV from the right-hand lane and the rear passenger area was approximately side-by-side at the SUV's passenger window (which is DARK-TINTED!), Swin looked toward the car, but his face was right in front of the frame around the windows - he would, at most, see the woman's left shoulder... and the baby was feeding "on the right." I doubt Kyle would have been able to see any part of the woman when he turned his head to look. At most (and this is unlikely given the height of the SUV), he might have gotten a partial glimpse of the woman's left shoulder and only after the car she was riding in was in front of the SUV's windshield (but still in the right-hand lane). (00:07:20)

Minari picture

Factual error: The Mahindra tractor in the film is newer than the 1980's setting. The tractor appears to be a '90's model. Mahindra tractors were not in the American market in the 1980's. Also, the "plow" used in the plowing scene was actually a "middle buster" plow. This plow would not be used at this stage or soil preparation. A turning plow would have been more accurate.
