Kingsman: The Secret Service picture

Factual error: When the barracks are completely flooded, Eggsy uses his bare fist to punch through a large two-way mirror to escape. The fact is that any glass (or plexiglas) thick enough to contain hundreds (or thousands) of tons of water without bursting would be as impenetrable as concrete to Eggsy's bare fist. He would need a chisel-tipped jackhammer to penetrate such a mirror.

Suggested correction: I watched the scene and it looks like it's filling up the way it should. It's looks similar to the way a car fills up after being submerged with the windows open.

Not true, water is still filling up the car way too slow for an opening like this. The car should be filled up immediately.

You're wrong thinking it would fill up immediately. But even so, it fills up in about 10 seconds (even less if the shot of it filling up is meant to be a simultaneous shot and not continuous).

Lupin the 3rd picture

Factual error: In the opening heist, the gang of thieves wants to steal "The Medal of Zeus." A plate at the museum explains that in Ancient Greece, Olympic champions were awarded olive wreaths, up to the 88th Olympics in 424 BC, when a golden medal was given to the victor for the first time. This last bit about gold medals is just made up by the movie. But it also gets the timeline wrong; the 88th Olympics were in 428 BC. 424 BC is when the 89th games took place. (00:03:30)
