Continuity mistake: Near the beginning, Goldie calls to go to camera 205, but on the screen it's camera 204.

The Condemned (2007)
Factual error: When Jack pulls the battery plate out of the battery to conceal his GPS signal, he slides it out easily. For one, the plates are perforated and second, they're attached inside of the battery. Also, when they show the top of the battery, the hole is too small for him to slide the plate out, and he's not strong enough to tear the plastic by hand.

The Condemned (2007)
Factual error: When the Brit is firing the shotgun, he fires it nearly a dozen times. The capacity of a short shotgun like that would be 7 at the most.

XXX: State of the Union (2005)
Factual error: It's been proven that when falling fast towards water, breaking the surface tension makes no difference in it's "softness", yet XXX is fine when he falls into the water after shooting it. If he fell for 5 seconds he would be going 60-70 mph and would certainly be injured or killed upon impact.
3rd Dec 2007
XXX: State of the Union (2005)
Factual error: The Cobra is doing about 160-170 when XXX jumps onto the tracks. At that speed, any sort of erratic movement would cause the complete loss of control, even without jumping tracks to get airborne. (01:24:20)

I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007)
Factual error: In the first fire scene, Chuck and Larry go into an actively burning building with no air masks on - that would NEVER happen.

Until Death (2007)
Factual error: In the restaurant shootout, the man shoots at Stowe with a 12 gauge shotgun from just a few feet away. When the projectiles hit the wall, there are only four or five and have approximately a 6 inch spread. Even an open choke shotgun with a short barrel would have a 2-3" spread at most at that range.

Until Death (2007)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning, the undercover cop says the combination is 666. But the lock has a 4 digit combination.
27th Nov 2007
Until Death (2007)
Continuity mistake: When Stowe walks into the police station for the first time after waking up, he is wearing a necklace. The next shot shows he isn't.
27th Nov 2007
Until Death (2007)
Factual error: When the older cop is in the trench at the end and his pistol runs empty, the slide doesn't lock to the rear as a Beretta should.
27th Nov 2007
Until Death (2007)
Factual error: When Stowe and Callaghan shoot each other at the end, the CGI shell casings have huge, unrealistic primers.
26th Nov 2007
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000)
Factual error: Brown states that silencers are not able to be purchased and are illegal. Not true. A silencer can be legally purchased providing the proper forms are completed with the ATF.
24th Nov 2007
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007)
Continuity mistake: When the Asian Minister has the pen in his hand with the big flat end piece on it, you can see it goes from having the logo in front to back a couple of times.
24th Nov 2007
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007)
Factual error: Firemen are no longer allowed to hang onto the side of a moving firetruck like depicted in the beginning of the movie.

Heartbreak Ridge (1986)
Continuity mistake: When Highway goes to his ex-wife's house and pours her a beer in a glass, it has about an inch of head on it. When the camera angle changes there's no head on the beer.

The Negotiator (1998)
Factual error: When Sabian views Niebaum's chair, you can see the bullet holes through the chair and into the desk behind it. The SWAT members were using 9mm MP5s, and they would use hollow point ammunition. Hollowpoints bloom when entering the body and do not pass through. Even if they used full metal jacket rounds, 9mm still wouldn't pass through a 250 lb man, a chair, and into a metal desk.

Reno 911!: Miami (2007)
Revealing mistake: When Junior pushes through the rotten whale, you can see the cut in the fabric "skin" and the sponge foam right beneath it.
4th Sep 2007
Hitch (2005)
Revealing mistake: When Hitch is wearing the fat face mask you can see where it has pulled away from his skin right next to his right eye.
3rd Sep 2007
Road House (1989)
Revealing mistake: Right before Bigfoot drives through the dealership, you can see that the doors and windows of the dealership are on temporary stands and not attached to the concrete. (01:25:15)
