Factual error: The way Michael poured wine out of the newly opened bottle (standard 750 ml/25 oz?), the estimated amount he poured into six glasses plus drank some from the bottle, and the angles at which the six friends tilted their glasses for the toast, were not realistic. Also, the wine bottle appeared to have more than one-half (possibly two-thirds) of its contents left when Michael poured it into the fireplace. A newly opened bottle of wine would not be held at a downward angle to start pouring. (00:26:18 - 00:27:34)
Factual error: When the planes are filmed falling from the sky, one shot is of the planes in the distance. You would not hear the explosion at the moment the planes hit the ground at that distance. It would take considerably longer.
Factual error: When Willie's wife drives Jerry to Indiantown to meet up with Willie, she mentions that they are entering the town and he asks if that is where Willie is from. The camera pans to a local house. There are 3 vehicles in the background: a 7th generation Nissan Maxima, which was not released until 2009; a 5th generation Chevrolet Camaro facelift, which was not until 2014; and a naughties American SUV. According to the movie, that scene is supposed to be circa 1995. (01:26:09)
Factual error: In the film, Blackberry is shown being "raided" by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As a Canadian company with its headquarters in Canada, the SEC, by itself, has no jurisdiction to effectuate such a raid on the premises. In real life, the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) brought the case against Blackberry co-CEO, Jim Balsillie.
Factual error: The warden, sergeant, and a couple of other members of the parole board are seated at a long table, so their upper bodies are in the open. When 10 shots are fired at them at close range, there is no blood splatter and little visible blood. (00:20:47)
Factual error: The USS King's crew are all wearing blue camos with US NAVY on their left chest. Yet the Skipper keeps calling them Marines.
Factual error: When driving to meet the Jordans you can see a white car in the distance on the right that is from the 21st century. (04:01:00 - 04:04:00)
Factual error: Though admitting the artistic license of Dom's car freefalling and safely landing on the damms' spillway, after it gets engulfed in flames both inside and outside, the fire doesn't burn or even scorch any of the tyres, upholstery, nor a single inch of Bryan or Dom's skin or clothes.
Factual error: Henk arrives in Moscow. The KGB gets a copy of his passport. In the next scene, a building can be seen, and a Trabant 601 drives through the shot (one light out). Trabant was East German made and widely exported on the Eastern Block but never to the Soviet Union. This car is definitely wrong there. (00:30:40)
Factual error: The protagonist, Cole Hauser, works for the Clinton police, as it is written everywhere on the police cars and the T-shirt he wears. However, he is assigned to murder investigations that take place by the river, and plenty of locations (the bar they hang out at, Morgan Freeman's college) are explicitly in Jackson.
Factual error: The take-out food container has "sweet potatoe" written on the top, misspelling "potato." (00:06:50)
Factual error: Amy never pays or is asked to pay for her drive-thru order at "Taco Tree". She places her order at the intercom, drives up to the window, and is handed her order with no exchange of money. She is given a receipt in her bag of food. (00:44:40 - 00:45:45)
Factual error: Early in the film, as the train pulls into the station, you can see 2 European Traffic Control Systems. A signalling system that was only installed in 2010.
Factual error: Kat morphs by calling for the Pterodactyl but she wasn't a ranger when the Pterodactyl was in use, she became the pink Ninja Ranger so her call should have been, "pink ranger power!"
Suggested correction: It's explained in the movie. Alpha made proxie power coins, in order for them to access the dino powers. She was given the Pterodactyl coin and the dino powers to get Tommy, Jason, and Kimberly back.
Factual error: Mr. Monk is crossing off days on a calendar until Trudy's passing anniversary. Three days before, he says "only two days left." Mr. Monk is too much of a perfectionist to say that. How did this happen?
Factual error: The storm chasers are meeting by the road and you see the sign for I-90 East in the background several times. This movie takes place in and around Texas, yet the route that I-90 takes is nowhere remotely close to that far south.
Factual error: The flat screen TV shown in the room with Jose Hernandez's wife is not era correct. The TV shown is manufactured post-2009. The launch occurred in 2009. (01:46:11)
Factual error: When Marcus is walking down the street after first meeting the team, he gets picked up by Johnny and his sister. You can see Government of Manitoba vehicles in the background, while the movie is set in Des Moines, Iowa. (00:22:38)
Factual error: In the famous "Rumble In The Jungle" fight between George Foreman and Muhammad Ali, the movie portrays Foreman as fighting out of the red corner and Ali fighting out of the blue corner. In the actual fight, Ali fought out of the red corner and Foreman was in the blue.
Factual error: The thick chain-links - between both sides of the driver's door - do not prevent the door from being completely closed (but ought to). (00:13:55 - 00:14:33)
