Shooter (2007)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Antoine Fuqua
Starring: Mark Wahlberg, Danny Glover, Rhona Mitra, Michael Pena

Trivia: When Swagger is recuperating from the makeshift operation, it's shown that he has a third nipple below the left nipple.
Question: Why does Swagger include 5 tennis balls on the list of medical supplies he hands to Sarah?
