The Penthouse picture

Other mistake: Det. Martinez told Peter he couldn't do anything about his belief that Charles was in his penthouse (and took his dog) without the necessary evidence. However, the detective filed stalking charges against Peter based on Charles' statement that he was being stalked, which was without evidence. The charge of stalking was also far-fetched and the detective should have had enough sense to realise that Charles would not be in fear of his safety over Peter's presence or behavior.

Naked Singularity picture

Other mistake: In a voice over, Casi said, " I am a public defender. And there are only 15,000 of me for the 10.5 million people who were arrested last year in America." The statistics may not be accurate (the FBI's UCR lists an estimated 10,085,207 arrests in 2019), but it is his general statement that is misleading. Not all arrestees will be represented by a public defender - many will hire private defense attorneys. The inference of a 1,000 caseload per year exaggerates the actual of 50-590. (00:01:09)

Black Friday picture

Other mistake: When Ken was using the plunger to lift panels of the suspended ceiling, the bathroom stall next to him (and against the wall) was closed, but when he stooped to the floor to look at the broken bottle of alcohol, the stall door was open and someone's legs from below the knees could be seen. When this part of the movie resumed, Ken was opening the door to the stall. He was also walking on the area where the broken bottle was on the floor. The toilet only went as high as the person's shins. (00:33:08 - 00:35:50)

Candyman picture

Other mistake: At the Night Driver gallery showing, Haley is reading from a program that describes Anthony's "Say My Name" piece. The text states that Helen Lyle died from "self-emulation" instead of "self-immolation", immolation meaning death by fire.

Belfast picture

Other mistake: It isn't clear if the poster of the Solar System outside the school was cut off on the right, showing half of Neptune, or if the ninth planet at the time (Pluto) was accidentally omitted. IF the poster was supposed to be complete, its exclusion of Pluto would be an error for the time period (1969) because Pluto was not downgraded to a "dwarf planet" until 2006. Perhaps, only half of Neptune was shown in order to not have to address the changed status of Pluto, making this a deliberate mistake. (00:32:36)

Suggested correction: Neptune isn't cut off, it shows as a complete circle on the "poster" (looks more like a board).

Apex picture

Other mistake: When the helicopter was flying toward and over Apex Island, the helicopter (as well as the similarly-sized box) was about 1/10 or 1/12 the width of the island. In the next view, from almost ground-level, the helicopter was about as wide as one pine tree. (00:10:30)

Catch the Bullet picture

Other mistake: Jed has eight rounds on him/in his pistol. He tells Chad to go to his saddlebag to get another round of ammo and keep it in his pocket. Jed tells Chad "Let's play catch the bullet" since Chad (not his marshal dad Britt) is the only MacMasters there. Jed fires six rounds before Britt shows up on top of the hill, then two more (eight rounds). Jed shoots a ninth and tenth round before he tells Chad, "Get that ammo." Chad is never shown giving Jed the ammo from his pocket, but Jed keeps shooting. (01:13:42 - 01:17:46)

The God Committee picture

Other mistake: Boxer tells Jordon, later in the film in 2021, that Trip Granger died of a drug overdose 6 months after his heart transplant. The transplant was done Nov. 6 2014. However, earlier in 2021, Boxer was looking at a funeral card for Trip, which stated he died in 2014 (1984-2014). (01:07:13 - 01:21:19)

Snake Eyes picture

Other mistake: While Snake Eyes is fighting at the beginning of the film, the other guy throws him to a block of concrete. Snake hits on his head and should be dead by then or at least seriously injured.

Operation Mincemeat picture

Other mistake: The body of a man is dropped from a plane into the sea with fake documents to mislead Germans. To convince the enemy that he's a soldier, cause of death needs to pass for drowning. The first drowned corpse viewed has no legs, so Firth keeps looking. He's told that a man who took rat poison to end his life is a good fit since the poison is undetectable. However, no mention is made of the fact that there is no sea water in his lungs - something any coroner would discover. (01:43:40)

Separation picture

Other mistake: After the fire extinguisher was sprayed to put out the flame on the wall painting, there should have been some debris or markings to reflect the use of the extinguisher, but there were no obvious indicators. (00:24:50)

Red Notice picture

Other mistake: That old Mercedes-Benz would have never started, as the lithium-ion battery should be flat after 90 years of storage.

The Gardener picture

Other mistake: After Ken shoots the pregnant lady, she rolls her head to the side, apparently to indicate death, but her stomach movement shows she is still breathing. (00:01:46)

Prisoners of the Ghostland picture

Other mistake: Hero drove his car through a line of armored men and crashed onto rocks along a cement wall. Two days later when he returned to his car with gasoline (where one of his bombs exploded by the car), there was smoke and dust blowing through the air all around yet views of his car showed it was perfectly clean - shiny black. (00:52:35)

Last Survivors picture

Other mistake: It is highly unlikely that Troy's body would have ended up on his back that far away from the side of the house and facing the window Jake pushed him out of. (01:27:10 - 01:27:35)

Fear of Rain picture

Other mistake: When searching the missing kids database, the date given for when Malia went missing is 7th January 2021. When Rain receives a text message from Caileb the message is dated April 18 2019. (00:56:11 - 01:13:11)

A Cinderella Story: Starstruck picture

Other mistake: Finley wore her "trademark" white/blue/pink checked blouse, light blue jeans with rips across the knees, and brown boots while doing her extensive chores (thanks to her evil aunt and cousins). Among other dirty tasks, Finley swept the floor and scrubbed it on her hands and knees, repaired plumbing under the kitchen sink, swept the barn, fed the farm animals, milked the cows, scraped horse shoes clean, etc. Her outfit, though faded and worn from use, was still clean (spotless!) at the audition. (00:09:45 - 00:16:35)

Where's Rose picture

Other mistake: Rose was upset because she wouldn't be seeing brother Eric after he left for college, so it is implied that the university is some distance from their home. It doesn't make sense that Eric wore a blue high school "M" letter jacket that appeared to match the color scheme and logo of the University of M - (unclear) he would be attending or that he would go to practice in full uniform at his high school football field with friends a mere six days before leaving for college to play football.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage picture

Other mistake: At the beginning of the movie, Shriek reads an article mentioning that Cletus' story is "coming to an end", and Eddie is credited with uncovering "what the FBI and police could not " That doesn't fit with Eddie supposedly down on his luck and badly needing a scoop; and in fact the tagline is the same that will appear in printed and audio news later when Eddie does rise to fame again by discovering the bodies. Also, the article talks about Eddie Brock, but somehow is WRITTEN BY Eddie Brock.
