Jaws 4 (1987) - 23 mistakes
starring Mario Van Peebles, Michael Caine
Factual error: The shark follows Brody into the sunken ship (yeah, right) and eventually the chase ends with the shark at the end of a very narrow passageway, with no room for it swim further forward, and no room to turn. Since the rigid nature of a shark's pectoral fins means that they cannot swim backwards this one would be stuck. And since Great White sharks have to constantly swim in order to breathe, the movie really should have ended right there.
Revealing: When the shark bites off Sean's arm, the outline of his arm hidden under the coat is visible. Submitted by Mortug
