Cyborg Soldier picture

Revealing mistake: The El Camino that is going over the cliff, which has just been shot in the tailgate with a 50 caliber rifle, has no tailgate damage. Also at the same time stamp, when the El Camino is upside down, it is obvious there is no transmission or drive shaft in the car. They even show you this with a close-up. (00:46:20)

Bangkok Dangerous picture

Continuity mistake: The protagonist just paid the first 1'500 to Kong. He put the rest away and his arm is still and down his side. But in the next shot ("You come alone, or you don't get paid") he is still rustling in his pocket. (00:11:30)

Character mistake: The professor identifies the "sea monsters" as plesiosaurs from the Pleistocene. Plesiosaurs became extinct at the end of the age of dinosaurs, nearly 60 million years before the Pleistocene. Of course, the Loch Ness Monster might be an exception.

War, Inc. picture

Factual error: The bar shown in Iqualuit is not real. Iqualuit only has 6100 or so people, and there is no bar like the one shown in the movie. The building is wrong - it doesn't even look like any buildings in Iqualuit. There is one bar that looks nothing like the movie, one Legion, and a bar in the hotel in Iqualuit.

Continuity mistake: When King is fighting with Lazarus in the bar, Lazarus gets blood near his mouth like you get when getting hit in the face. But when they fight near the white door, the blood is gone. (01:13:00 - 01:18:00)
