Belly of the Beast picture

Revealing mistake: In the railroad yard shootout, Seagal jumps on a railroad work cart. He then kicks at a post to propel himself down the track, but one can easily see the pull cable/rope just inside the near rail, in the lower right hand corner of the screen. (00:44:05)

Dogville picture

Picking Up and Dropping Off picture

Revealing mistake: The movie takes place over the course of several years, as large segments of time pass between scenes of Will and Jane meeting at the airport, and other encounters. Thus, it is rather jarring to notice that their twelve year old children, Ben and Claire, don't appear to age at all. Young adolescents usually change in appearance quite drastically as they mature.

Matchstick Men picture

Revealing mistake: Throughout the film when we see wads of £50 notes they are quite fake as the print of the queen looks far too dark and the colours are off. Surely it wouldn't have been too much bother to put one real note on top of each wad? (01:06:50)

Runaway Jury picture

Revealing mistake: When Fitch is giving Marley the final offer on the $500K check, notice that the trolley is in motion by looking out the windows. When it cuts to a frontal shot of Fitch, look behind him through the windshield and you will see a car in front of a tree just above Fitch's right shoulder. Look close and you will notice that the car is not moving away from the trolley as if the trolley was stopped, yet it cuts back to Marley and we see that the trolley is indeed still moving.

Freaky Friday picture

Revealing mistake: At the end of the movie when the Grandpa and grandson are tackled after being given the 'fortune cookies' right at the moment of impact the little boy has been replaced by a stunt double which is a grown man dressed in the same clothes.

Shanghai Knights picture

Revealing mistake: It is really obvious Jackie Chan was on a wire when holding onto Roy at the end. His body floats and moves in a very unnatural way.

Pride and Prejudice picture

Revealing mistake: When Darcy has caught up to Elizabeth in the end and they are kissing in the street with the police cars around them, if you look at the side of the cars, you can see that these Las Vegas, Nevada police officers are driving cars from the Provo, Utah police force (where the movie was primarily filmed). (01:36:50)
