Factual error: When the soldiers are in the woods looking for the wolf, they come across a group a deer that bolt between them and around them scared for their lives and spooked. The deer runs behind the soldiers and they look at each other wondering what happened. Then the giant wolf, Ralph, suddenly comes up from behind the soldiers and eats one. But the deer just ran towards the direction the wolf came from. Meaning the deer got scared, but chose to run towards the giant hungry mutant wolf.

I rented this from Red Box.
This movie was surprisingly good. We all know how giant monster movies tend to go and this did have a lot of the same style tropes. But it had great acting, decent effects and a gripping enough story to keep you vested. It's not a great move, but it's not bad either. A good popcorn flick to keep you entertained.
Mistake Status: Studied it semi thoroughly when rented. I might buy the movie later on and go through it more extensively again.
I was pretty disappointed with Rampage. I went into this movie expecting a fun action movie with big creatures fighting, unfortunately, I found the plot mediocre, the first two acts were mostly boring and the third act only had a few fun moments, and I found most of the characters forgettable, even Dwayne Johnson. The only characters I found myself interested in were Jeffrey Dean Morgan, as I found his character enjoyably over the top, and the brother CEO character, as he had some funny moments, but that is really it. Overall, I found Rampage pretty bland and generic.

Suggested correction: If you watch carefully, the deer run past them to the right and away from the direction of the camera. Then the wolf comes from right, but from closer to the camera. At the speed that wolf is moving, it was able to circle around them and then strike.
Harvey Russell: Like my grandpappy always said: us assholes gotta stick together. (00:50:25)
Trivia: When Dwayne Johnson signs to George to calm him down, he says "it's me." The sign he makes on those words is for "Rock," a reference to his stage name "The Rock." (00:15:25)
Question: Why did they have to call a stealth bomber all the way from Missouri to go to Wyoming to bomb the creatures? There is an air force base in Wyoming. And secondly, why even need a stealth bomber? they are targeting animals in an already heavily publicized event.
Answer: Likely because the bomber was prepared with the necessary payload, compared to any in Wyoming.
Answer: The Wyoming Base most likely did not have the ordinance or aircraft capable of carrying the ordinance required so they used the closed base with the available ordinance and aircraft. Not every base has the same ordinance and aircraft at the same time.
