Cube 2: Hypercube mistake picture

Revealing mistake: When Kate decides to ditch Maguire and escape herself, we get a shot from above showing her face and Maguire's feet. However we only see his trousers. His feet are gone. Even though some could say that the wall removed them, but we can also see that the wall hasn't reached the part of the feet that are missing. It appears the CGI team forgot to add his feet in. (00:21:35)

The Medallion (2003)

Revealing mistake: When the first man is about to jump off the "Sea Horizon" we see him leap. However he is standing a couple of feet away from the edge of the deck. The camera angle makes it difficult to see this, but we are just led to believe he is jumping. When it cuts he actually jumps. (00:17:05)

The Medallion (2003)

Revealing mistake: In the scene where Jackie jumps off the ship trying to hit the escaping boat, he hits a man on the boat and they both fall into the water. When it cuts to the impact between Jackie and the man, it is obvious they both jump from the escaping boat. In fact we can actually see Jackie standing on the boat before he 'falls' into the water.

The Medallion (2003)

Revealing mistake: When Jackie throws the guy head first up in the ceiling, you can see the ceiling move. The ceiling is supposed to be solid rock, so it shouldn't be moving. (01:09:05)

Innerspace mistake picture

Revealing mistake: When Jack is hanging out of the truck you can see him standing on the hood of the car which Lydia is driving. At some points we get camera view from the back seat of the car. In some angles the mirror inside the car disappear. This is to prevent us from seeing the camera. (01:04:15)

Braveheart (1995)

Revealing mistake: At the end of the battle of Stirling we see a Scotsman stab something with his sword and we can hear "Ouch". However there is no one on the ground where he stabs. He just rams the sword into the ground. Then he does it again and we hear "Ouch". Quite fun to watch. (01:27:55)
