Corrected entry: English archers repelling the French Army landing are lined up, single file, along the cliff's top edge. Wrong. One, they are shooting arrows into a prevailing on-shore wind, therefore, highly unlikely that their arrows would reach the French at water's edge; two, the archers are congregated into a block so that their arrows would arrive in a thick "hail"; and three, after launching their arrows, archers were expected to join the fray, something that they could not do in a timely manner.

Correction: So what are you claiming the mistake is? Poor tactics? Because that does happen. "Highly unlikely" is a poor choice of words for a mistake - it shows that this is an opinion on your part, which is not an acceptable basis for a mistake. Just because you feel that the battle should be run differently, that doesn't make it an error. You have to justify why this is a movie mistake and not just poor decisions by the characters.
