Child's Play (1988)

Revealing mistake: Look very closely at the way Maggie is knocked backwards after being struck with the hammer. It seems as if she is deliberately throwing herself backwards, which also means they may have used reversed footage.

Other mistake: Being struck on the forehead with a toy hammer would not cause someone to be knocked off balance to the point that they are flying backwards the 15-20 feet or so we see with Maggie.

Suggested correction: Yet, Chucky hit her pretty hard and she lost her footing.

Doesn't matter that Chucky hit her hard; he couldn't generate enough force to shove her out the window. Same thing with losing her footing.
