The Matrix (1999)

Corrected entry: In the middle of the film when we see Cypher talking to Trinity on the phone, at the end of their conversation we see Tank with the big electric gun, when he fires it, pause and use frame by frame or slow motion and you can see its not Cypher (Joe Pantoliano) but his stunt double, this can be seen because the brightness of the gun causes his face to be bright so you can see the stunt double. (01:26:55)

Correction: According to this site's rules, if you have to use slow motion to see something, it's not a valid mistake.

The Matrix (1999)

Corrected entry: When we see Trinity kick a cop and that cop falls into another cop, then they both hit the wall, if you slow it down, you can actually see they hit the wall twice. (00:02:55)

Correction: The necessary use of slow motion invalidates mistakes such as these, unless the frames reveal something such as a crewmember in shot.

The Matrix (1999)

Corrected entry: At the beginning of the film when Trinity sees the telephone box, there is a large lamp-post that she runs past, yet when you slow it down, she's in line with the post not in front of it from the previous shot, also if you pause it or slow it down, you can actually see that the path she just run down has shortened somewhat.

The Matrix (1999)

Corrected entry: At the very beginning of the film when we see Trinity kick the chair at a cop, it knocks him back a bit and the chair falls to the ground, yet when the scene cuts to a different cop who is just about to fire upon Trinity if you pause or slow it down you can again see the chair flipping over and heading towards this second cop.

The Matrix (1999)

Corrected entry: Just after the big lobby scene, you see Trinity and Neo enter the lift, look on the left wall and it says "Levels 40-82," yet when Neo stops the elevator, he stops it at 41, but the elevator drops a lot further than one floor. (01:39:50 - 01:40:20)

The-Immortal

Correction: As they enter the building on the level where they enter the lift, it's pretty clear that they're not on the 40th floor at the time. That lift is simply designated for use to reach the upper floors from the ground floor. Thus they enter at ground level, take the lift up to floor 41 (halfway between the ground floor and the roof) where they exit, then the lift drops back down that same distance.
