Naked Singularity picture

Other mistake: In a voice over, Casi said, " I am a public defender. And there are only 15,000 of me for the 10.5 million people who were arrested last year in America." The statistics may not be accurate (the FBI's UCR lists an estimated 10,085,207 arrests in 2019), but it is his general statement that is misleading. Not all arrestees will be represented by a public defender - many will hire private defense attorneys. The inference of a 1,000 caseload per year exaggerates the actual of 50-590. (00:01:09)

Black Friday picture

Other mistake: When Ken was using the plunger to lift panels of the suspended ceiling, the bathroom stall next to him (and against the wall) was closed, but when he stooped to the floor to look at the broken bottle of alcohol, the stall door was open and someone's legs from below the knees could be seen. When this part of the movie resumed, Ken was opening the door to the stall. He was also walking on the area where the broken bottle was on the floor. The toilet only went as high as the person's shins. (00:33:08 - 00:35:50)

Stowaway picture

Other mistake: When Zoe Levenson first looks out the window from the spaceship, the earth is from the bottom moving towards the top, this is opposite to the ship spinning direction, which can be determined by the direction of the gravity. (00:12:50)

Space Sweepers picture

Other mistake: After Jang tells Pierre to get the money, the scene cuts to a woman saying, in English "It's a 99.9 percent DNA match", but the captions read [in German] instead of [in English]. The same mistake happens again when she says "We're synced" and the captions read [woman in German] instead of [woman in English]. (02:06:08 - 02:06:40)

Belfast picture

Other mistake: It isn't clear if the poster of the Solar System outside the school was cut off on the right, showing half of Neptune, or if the ninth planet at the time (Pluto) was accidentally omitted. IF the poster was supposed to be complete, its exclusion of Pluto would be an error for the time period (1969) because Pluto was not downgraded to a "dwarf planet" until 2006. Perhaps, only half of Neptune was shown in order to not have to address the changed status of Pluto, making this a deliberate mistake. (00:32:36)

Suggested correction: Neptune isn't cut off, it shows as a complete circle on the "poster" (looks more like a board).

Apex picture

Other mistake: When the helicopter was flying toward and over Apex Island, the helicopter (as well as the similarly-sized box) was about 1/10 or 1/12 the width of the island. In the next view, from almost ground-level, the helicopter was about as wide as one pine tree. (00:10:30)

Miss Willoughby and the Haunted Bookshop picture

Other mistake: When the men lift the body bag out of the boat, the body bag looks dry and there is no water dripping. (01:06:47)

Venom: Let There Be Carnage picture

Other mistake: Venom and Eddie are having a domestic dispute. Items rain off the window in front of a homeless person. The other passers-by change between shots. Not only that; in the second shot there's one extra who turns around acting startled by the man's shout. Does not really make sense; heavy objects just crashed down a few feet from him, anyone would have been startled by that first and foremost. Wrong reaction time/ direction of the extras. (00:32:45)

The God Committee picture

Other mistake: Boxer tells Jordon, later in the film in 2021, that Trip Granger died of a drug overdose 6 months after his heart transplant. The transplant was done Nov. 6 2014. However, earlier in 2021, Boxer was looking at a funeral card for Trip, which stated he died in 2014 (1984-2014). (01:07:13 - 01:21:19)

Those Who Wish Me Dead picture

Other mistake: At the school, a police officer told Owen, "Let's go" (move his vehicle). Owen tells Connor "We're playing hooky", makes a sharp turn, speeds past three school buses parked along the road, and passes a police office and school crossing guard (who didn't seem to notice). School zones have 15 MPH limits and police take speeding in these areas very seriously. A motorists violating in a school zone like Owen did would be pursued and cited with multiple offenses. (00:05:40)

The Protégé picture

Other mistake: In the kitchen fight scene Maggie Q's weapon fires on automatic (without a magazine) when she is knocked to the floor by Michael K, but when she jumps over the table her weapon is and fires as a shotgun.

Suggested correction: She always has a shotgun, her weapon doesn't change.

The Penthouse picture

Other mistake: After scuba divers got Tess' body out of the water, Peter asked Det. Martinez who she was. Martinez replied, "She and Charles were common law husband and wife." Peter later asked if he would be notifying Tess' family. Martinez replied, "We don't even know Tess was her real name." It doesn't make sense that Martinez could know Charles and Tess were common law spouses if he wasn't sure who Tess really was. Also, N. Carolina never recognized common law marriage and Florida abolished it in 1968.

Separation picture

Other mistake: After the fire extinguisher was sprayed to put out the flame on the wall painting, there should have been some debris or markings to reflect the use of the extinguisher, but there were no obvious indicators. (00:24:50)

Snake Eyes picture

Other mistake: While Snake Eyes is fighting at the beginning of the film, the other guy throws him to a block of concrete. Snake hits on his head and should be dead by then or at least seriously injured.

Zone 414 picture

Other mistake: Jane's top includes a scarf that is wrapped around her neck a few times. She starts to remove the scarf by unwrapping it clockwise. When the camera shifts, and she resumes unwrapping the scarf, she goes counterclockwise. (00:20:55)

Prisoners of the Ghostland picture

Other mistake: Hero drove his car through a line of armored men and crashed onto rocks along a cement wall. Two days later when he returned to his car with gasoline (where one of his bombs exploded by the car), there was smoke and dust blowing through the air all around yet views of his car showed it was perfectly clean - shiny black. (00:52:35)

Red Notice picture

Other mistake: That old Mercedes-Benz would have never started, as the lithium-ion battery should be flat after 90 years of storage.

Suggested correction: You can see Booth starting the old Mercedes-Benz with a crank handle. No need for a battery. Back then, there were no lithium-ion batteries, but rather lead-acid batteries.

Below the Fold picture

Other mistake: Tom told David and Lily, "Whoever murdered that girl [Jessica] didn't have sex with her. They used a corn cob." The crime scene photo of the "corn cob" actually showed a partially opened "husk of corn" or "ear of corn." The "cob" is the inner part of the ear beneath the kernels of corn and could more realistically be used to "assault" someone. (00:33:30 - 00:38:30)

Other mistake: Grace Lewis shot a man in the head when he was standing less than three feet from her, but Grace did not get any blood splatter on her face or elsewhere. Neither did George Clements, who was standing near both of them. (01:15:03)
