Factual error: When the red BMW hits the curb just before joining the freeway he does so at 70. Hitting the curb at 70 would cause a blowout. (00:17:10)
Factual error: Bones calls the Drill Sergeant "Ma'am" or "Sir" several times and she never does anything. Anyone who has been through Army Basic Training can tell you, a Drill Sergeant will NEVER let "Sir" or "Ma'am" pass without comment. And this is not a character mistake, It would be like calling a Senator "Governor" or a Catholic preacher "Rabbi" and having them ignore it.
Factual error: In the closing credits Matthew McConaughey's name is misspelt "Matthew McConnaughey." (01:20:00)
Factual error: A bottle of champagne in space rotates around its centre of mass, not the midpoint of its axis of symmetry.
Factual error: In an early scene, when Axel Foley is pursuing the bad guys' truck, he is driving a red sports car that is gradually being shot to pieces around him by the bad guys. At one point, his airbag deploys, momentarily impeding his driving. This is a prop error: It was much smaller than a real airbag, it inflated much more slowly than the real thing, and it remained inflated till he mashed it down (real airbags pop and deflate within a second).
Factual error: Near the end of the film, the movie changes locations to Seattle. A skyline is shown and it is identified as Seattle. The city skyline that is shown is actually Philadelphia.
Factual error: The entire court proceeding is inaccurate. Under New York state law, all property received during marriage is joint and several. Therefore Charlie has the right to give half (HIS half it turns out) to Yvonne. More strongly, the press is always called out for lottery winners to prevent these situations. The wife screwed herself when she agreed to have Yvonne at the check presentation which effectively shows her agreeing, albeit not happily, to the arrangement. Finally, to be even more picky, under New York state law, the person BUYING the ticket is the only owner and the other person must prove that the ticket was bought in trust for them (if it comes to litigation of-course). In most cases, people like the bowling team readily split the proceeds without a problem.
Factual error: In the India scene where Ryu eventually fights some terrorists, Ryu suddenly has a white bag. Where did the bag come from? He didn't have before in the movie, and after this scene it goes missing as well. You can't say he left it at home either because Ryu doesn't have a home to go to.
Factual error: When Jack (Molloy) is at work in the call center, he uses his mobile phone to take a call. Everyone working there would be swearing at him and hitting him with big sticks because mobile phones make electronic noises in headsets, just like when your phone gets network activity and it is near a radio, stereo, speaker, etc.
Factual error: In the flower garden when Elizabeth, Jeremy and Harry return after they become disappointed with "outdoors" Mom, Miss Cavour shows them a flower she calls a zinnia, but it is actually a morning glory. A related error is that morning glories don't come in multiple colors on one vine. (00:21:00)
Factual error: The guns Lamont Cranston uses in his "The Shadow" persona are Lar Grizzly MK1 Longslide. The movie is set in the 1930s and the pistols weren't developed before the early 80s.
Factual error: Harry's tongue gets stuck to the chairlift, and stays stuck, even though it's not cold enough to see anyone's breath, or for everyone to need their jackets zipped-up. (01:11:30 - 01:13:35)
Factual error: Justine is accused of murdering Victor's young brother and is taken by police. A lynch mob takes her to the top of a fortress wall, drapes a noose around her neck and tosses her over the side. She falls for what looks like at least 8 metres. When the rope comes taut, she is killed but her head isn't ripped off by the force of the fall. Falling for that distance should have torn her head from her body.
Factual error: In the saloon at night, Ben Wheeler says, "I can't afford another Workers Comp claim". Workers compensation wasn't started in the United States until 1902. (00:10:25)
Factual error: Dove runs towards the bomb truck to prevent his colleague from detonating the bomb, which he fails to do, then as the bomb explodes he falls towards it. The shock wave from the explosion would have pushed him backwards.
Factual error: In one scene Cobb and the sportswriter doing his biography are driving across the country to get to the baseball Hall of Fame. They are stopped next to some railroad tracks fixing a flat tire, and a train goes by that has Burlington Northern markings (BN). Burlington Northern didn't come into existance until ten years or so after Mr. Cobb died.
Factual error: When Blankman is riding on the train tracks with his custom mobile, the computer screen shows a straight track when they are actually on a curve.
Factual error: The drug-runners at the start of the film mention that their scheme is to smuggle cocaine by mixing it with molten plastic, molding the plastic into dolls, shipping them and then re-melting the plastic to separate the cocaine again, which will leave it "100% pure." While you can indeed smuggle cocaine by mixing it with plastic, the process to recover it is way more intricate than simply re-melting the plastic, and requires chemists to treat the plastic with all sorts of chemicals and compounds in a complex process (and it will not be "100% pure" as suggested), and it is usually done with larger plastic objects (like plastic dog-houses or car-parts), as something the size of a doll isn't going to be able to hold all that much cocaine.
Factual error: A carton of HEB milk is taken out of the fridge and it has the new (as of 1994) label on it. The movie is set in the late 80s, when the old style label was still used.
Factual error: "A Friend's" emails sent from the Univ. Of Washington look ridiculous with just some text and an abbreviated name on a colored background. UW emails have a white background, the addresses have a "uw.edu" domain name and show staff name, credentials, title, and department. The UW name, logo, and other info are always included. Prof. Friend's student assistant (son of Tom's co-worker) sent the emails from Friend's office, but he could have sent anonymous ones from any computer using Yahoo, Google, etc.
