Suggested correction: Since this isn't part of a scene in the movie, it's not a mistake. It's just a stylized image. It would be no different from pointing out a group of people superimposed over each other or appearing larger than big objects they're next to.

Death Al Dente: A Gourmet Detective Mystery picture

Other mistake: Mateo shows the tram ticket to Maggie; date and time (March 3, 2016, 13:23) are not valid to prove an alibi for a murder happened at the end of February at quarter to 1 pm - not when the person said that they already were at the location where the tram supposedly took them. (00:51:40)

Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life picture

Other mistake: When Rafe arrives at the new school, principal Dwight has his arms full of items he confiscated when the morning has not even started yet, very specific and obvious rule-breakers like a skate, 2 footballs and a basketball. So did some dudes just start playing ball and shooting hoops in front of the principal at 8 am in the middle of the street? Who are those rebels? There's no trace of rule defiance early in the movie. (00:06:30)

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter picture

Other mistake: Alice is running behind the armored cars. Once she manages to get on top of the car, suddenly the zombies that were only behind her and nowhere near the car are found at the sides too, attacking a guard and later Alice as well. Not possible considering if zombies were able to get there, they would have killed Alice while she was running.

Other mistake: When Bill is alone with the girl at his house, there is a roaring fire, but in the next scene the fire is completely out and he comments, "you must be cold, I didn't have time to start a fire".

Train to Busan picture

Other mistake: When the truck driver gets his truck cleaned at the start, he starts to drive forwards to a worker at the quarantine checkpoint. The wide shot shows the truck driving towards the worker, but when the shot ends, the truck has not quite gone passed him. We are then shown a shot of the truck driver stopping the truck and rolling down the window. In the shot, the driver is shown looking directly to his left to be face to face with the quarantine worker, right as the shot begins. There's no way the driver could have been immediately looking at the worker at the start of the shot as the truck had yet to go past the driver at the end of the previous shot. (00:01:20)

Ride Along 2 picture

Other mistake: In the hit on Port Commissioner Griffin at the beginning of the movie, he picks up the phone at 9:20 (office wall clock). When he is killed, there's a close-up of his phone that is totally, well, phony for many reasons. Most notably, the time of the call is stuck at 36 seconds even when the close-up lasts longer than a second. You can read also on top that the time is 1:44 PM, which is inconsistent with what shown earlier and with the fact that it's evening! It is also displayed as a Blocked Caller, too, which makes no sense. (00:02:10 - 00:03:00)

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates picture

Other mistake: Mike and Dave put the ad on Craigslist, and people begin to share it through social media. The first time we see someone share it through Facebook the date of the post is "March 19 at 12:38 AM." Moments later there's a zoom in and now the date is still the 19th, still at 12:38 AM, but the month changed to May. (00:12:30)

Nine Lives picture

Other mistake: Two security guards at Firebrand are shown watching a video of Tom, as Mr. Fuzzypants, jumping across a doorway and Lara and Madison attempting to catch him that Nicole filmed. The problem is, the camera angle shows an angle in front of Lara, Madison and the cat and Nicole filmed the video from behind the cat. Nicole can even be seen filming in the background of the video. There is still no way this footage could have been filmed from this angle. (01:15:55)

Other mistake: Sloppy animation: In the opening scene, the propeller of one of the Japanese planes stops just as it rolls into its dive.

Billionaire Boy picture

Other mistake: When Warwick Davis shows Joe the form he's tricked his father into signing to allow him to transfer schools, the form is shown full screen. The "home" phone number is the same as that used in the school's letterhead, and there is text that says"insert name of fictitious school here." Also in this scene the name of the headmaster and phone number is visible, but none of those details match what is on the school's advertising board a couple of scenes later when Joe starts at his new school.

I, Daniel Blake picture

Other mistake: Daniel Blake in the first minutes of the movie is at the hospital taking an echocardiogram. On screen you can see the date of the test; 20/10/2015, so he took it on the 20th of October. The day goes on with Daniel visiting his coworkers, then he is at home, with BBC Radio Four saying it's twelve to 1:00 and broadcasting the first shipping forecast of the day for "Tuesday the 20th." (00:04:40 - 00:06:50)

Ghostbusters picture

Other mistake: After the ghost "possesses" the building and blows out the windows, no shards of glass or debris land on the Ghostbusters as they get up to escape, even though there was plenty of time for the glass and debris to rain down on them.

Suggested correction: You can plainly see that the debris is actually flowing upwards in defiance of gravity. Spectral energy is running amok and the laws of physics are all over the place.

Ratchet and Clank picture

Other mistake: When Drek lands in New Quartu, his crashed shuttle is facing towards the Deplanitizer's direction. His shuttle should be facing the other way since he was launched straight to New Quartu.
